Ma yor a nd C ouncil,
I hope you a nd your families a re doing well. I a m writing to expres s my s upport for the propos ed condominium devel opment at the AH.
Ana heim ha s approved many developments over the years in the flatla nd a reas of the c i ty—projec ts that I, a l ong with other res i dents ,
oppos ed for various rea s ons . Des pite our concerns , many of thos e developments moved forward, a nd our voi ces were not heard. For
tha t rea s on, it is difficult to unders tand why this project is being s o s trongly oppos ed by Ana hei m Hi l l s res idents , and why you would
you vote no when we ha ve a s horta g e of hous ing .
During public comments , I was deeply s a ddened by rema rks made tha t portra yed future res idents in a neg ati ve and unfa i r wa y.
C omments s ug g es ting tha t working families would s omehow lower the qua lity of the neig hborhood were hurtful and divi s ive. Many of
us were not born with privileg e, but we work hard, rais e our fa milies here, a nd des erve the opportunity to own a home in Ana hei m Hi l l s .
Some opponents cite tra ffic and fire concerns as reas ons to deny this project. While thes e a re i mporta nt c ons idera tions , tra ffi c alrea dy
exis ts in this area a nd will continue to exis t throughout the city. Public roa ds are mea nt to be us ed by everyone, a nd tra ffi c impac ts
s hould not be us ed a s a rea s on to deny hous ing opportunities —es pecia lly when the need for homeowners hip opti ons is s o g rea t.
This is a well-loca ted project. It offers nearby s hopping , dining , a nd s ervices tha t reduc e the need for long c ommutes . Similar
developments a re s ucces s ful beca us e they create walka ble communities where res idents ca n live, work, and s hop l ocally.
I res pectfully as k the Mayor and C ity C ouncil to vote yes in fa vor of this project. Hous ing s hould be for all—not onl y for thos e who
alrea dy own homes . Pleas e do not allow fear or dis crimina tion to prevent hardworking fa milies from ha ving the opportuni ty to own a
home in the hills .
B es t Reg ards !

P.S. I unders tand tha t you ma y receive multiple emails from the s a me hous eholds oppos i ng this projec t. I res pec tful l y as k tha t you a l s o
cons ider the many young fa milies and long-term renters who are s truggling with ris ing rents a nd are s eeki ng a real opportunity to
become homeowners . Affordable homeowners hip is critical to keeping working families in Ana hei m i ns tea d of forc i ng them to l ea ve the
city.
