RE: SUPPORT Agenda Item 18 – Hotel Worker Safety
Dear Mayor Aitken, Mayor Pro Tem Rubalcava, and Members of the City Council:
On behalf of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, I write in support of agenda item 18 directing the drafting of an ordinance addressing hotel worker safety.
Providing personal security devices for hotel workers is an idea with broad consensus.
Indeed, many of Anaheim’ s hotels have already installed these devices. A written notice to hotel guests regarding the ordinance and that any guest will be removed at their own expense are common sense measures. Annual training during paid work hours and paid time to report conduct to the police are reasonable policies.
As you prepare the ordinance, I urge you to ensure that hotels of varying sizes are included in the discussion. Any such ordinance should ensure flexibility for the hotels on who is designated to receive alerts because each hotel may have different determinations in how to optimally implement this.
The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce thanks Mayor Pro Tem Rubalcava for proposing an ordinance on hotel worker safety. I thank the Council for working to strengthen safety in Anaheim.
Sincerely,
Laura Cunningham
President & CEO

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.

While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.
Thismeasure istooterrible initspotential consequences tomove forward withunless weknowallthefacts. As theCityCouncil, youhavetheauthority toaskcitystafftoperform astudyoftheproposal sothatwecanfind outthefacts.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,

While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.

Subject:\[ EXTERNAL\] DotheStudy - Protect funding forAnaheim'sneighborhoods and services
Warning: Thisemail originated fromoutside theCityofAnaheim. Donotclicklinksoropen attachments unless yourecognize thesender andareexpecting themessage.
DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.
Thismeasure istooterrible initspotential consequences tomove forward withunless weknowallthefacts. As theCityCouncil, youhavetheauthority toaskcitystafftoperform astudyoftheproposal sothatwecanfind outthefacts.

Dear Mayor Aitken and City Councilmembers,
We are writing to express our deep concern with a potential ballot measure being promoted by UNITE HERE Local 11. Based on the initial review of the measure, it is clear it will have lasting and irrevocable negative impacts on residents, jobs, businesses, and taxpayers in Anaheim. It is important to note that UNITE HERE' s effort specifically targets only Anaheim residents, jobs, taxpayers and businesses, therefore financially benefiting neighboring communities.
Because of the seriousness of this issue, we encourage the City Council to take full advantage of state law, which allows cities to protect their communities to respond to such efforts. State law provides that a thorough economic impact analysis can be conducted by the city in anticipation of such a measure. The impact analysis includes but is not limited to, increased costs to Anaheim residents, reduction in city services ( police, fire, parks, libraries), private- sectorjob losses, and the fiscal impact of visitors choosing to stay in Garden Grove hotels and commuting into Anaheim in order avoid the impacts of UNITE HERE' s proposal.
In addition to targeting jobs in Anaheim, this poorly written measure will specifically increase costs to residents who visit city -owned facilities such as Angel Stadium, the Honda Center, and the Anaheim Convention Center. Financially, Portofino as part of Anaheim tax contributor will not sustain with 45 employees in the hotel and majority of the rooms are suite.
Thank you in advance for your leadership and efforts to prepare for the potential impacts this targeted effort will have on Anaheim' s General Fund, residents, and employment opportunities prior to taking any official action on UNITE HERE' s proposed measure.
We are anxious to work with the City Council and others to oppose this extreme and negative proposal. By working collaboratively, we can protect city revenues/ services, residents and job opportunities here in Anaheim.
S rely,
C rles Eman

Dear Mayor Aitken and City Councilmembers,
We are writing to express our deep concern with a potential ballot measure being promoted by UNITE HERE Local
11. Based on the initial review of the measure, it is clear it will have lasting and irrevocable negative impacts on residents, jobs, businesses, and taxpayers in Anaheim. It is important to note that UNITE HERE'S effort specifically targets only Anaheim residents, jobs, taxpayers and businesses, therefore financially benefiting neighboring communities.
I have spent the majority of my 39-year career in hospitality in the Anaheim Convention and Tourism Market. In fact, I was an Anaheim Chamber Ambassador early on. I love every minute contributing to this amazing destination and have spent my fair share attending Anaheim City Council meetings to message what I know are important thoughts for the City Council to consider from local businesses. I am honored to know what we contribute to the community and the city's general fund support the citizen's needs.
The following are specific to my current responsibilities which I know if this measure passes will have the following negative impacts to name only a few:
Current negotiated contracts with our groups and leisure clients are not priced to mitigate the impact of increased wages to support the current business model.
The current cost of goods and wages we have had to implement to attract the labor we need (and we are still understaffed) are already an enormous challenge impacting our business. Another drastic increase would be detrimental to our company's existence.
The increased cost will cause leisure and group business for destination drive business to neighboring cities such as Garden Grove, Fullerton, Costa Mesa, as well as other outlaying cities in California.
We encourage the City Council to take full advantage of state law, which allows cities to protect their communities to espond to such efforts. State law provides that a thorough economic impact analysis can be conducted by the city in anticipation of such a measure.
Thank you in advance for your leadership and efforts to prepare for the potential impacts this targeted effort will have on Anaheim's General Fund, residents, and employment opportunities prior to taking any official action on UNITE HERE' s proposed measure.
We are anxious to work with the City Council and others to oppose this extreme and negative proposal. By working collaboratively, we can protect city revenues/ services, residents and job opportunities here in Anaheim.

Warning: Thisemail originated fromoutside theCityofAnaheim. Donotclicklinksoropen attachments unless yourecognize thesender andareexpecting themessage.
DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.
Thismeasure istooterrible initspotential consequences tomove forward withunless weknowallthefacts. As theCityCouncil, youhavetheauthority toaskcitystafftoperform astudyoftheproposal sothatwecanfind outthefacts.
Weurge youtodoso!
Perform thestudy, gather alltheinformation andfactsabout theimpact ofthismeasure, anddon’tmove forward untilweknowalltheways inwhich itwillimpact thefinances ofourcityandthequality oflifewe’ve come toexpect fromAnaheim

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.
Thismeasure istooterrible initspotential consequences tomove forward withunless weknowallthefacts. As theCityCouncil, youhavetheauthority toaskcitystafftoperform astudyoftheproposal sothatwecanfind outthefacts.
Weurge youtodoso!
Perform thestudy, gather alltheinformation andfactsabout theimpact ofthismeasure, anddon’tmove forward untilweknowalltheways inwhich itwillimpact thefinances ofourcityandthequality oflifewe’ve come toexpect fromAnaheim

Dear Council Member Faessel,
We are writing to express our deep concern with the proposed " Hotel and Event Center" ballot measure that is scheduled to be considered by City Council on May 16th. Based on our initial review of the measure, we fear that it will have lasting and irrevocable negative impacts on residents, jobs, businesses, and taxpayers in Anaheim. In doing so, this proposed measure threatens to put our entire city at a significant economic disadvantage when compared to neighboring communities.
Because of the seriousness of this issue, we encourage the City Council to take full advantage of state law, which provides that a thorough economic impact analysis can be conducted by the city in anticipation of such a measure. The impact analysis includes but is not limited to, increased costs to Anaheim residents, reduction in city services ( police, fire, parks, libraries), private- sectorjob losses, and the fiscal impact of visitors choosing to stay in Garden Grove hotels and commuting into Anaheim in order to avoid the harmful impacts of this proposal.
In addition to targeting jobs in Anaheim, this measure will dramatically increase costs on local residents who visit city -owned facilities such as Angel Stadium, the Honda Center, and the Anaheim Convention Center.
Thank you in advance for your leadership and efforts to thoughtfully evaluate the potential impacts this proposal will have on Anaheim' s General Fund, residents, and employment opportunities prior to taking any official action on the measure.
We are anxious to work with the City Council and others to avoid any unnecessary consequences that could be triggered by this proposal. By working collaboratively, we are confident that we can find a balanced way to protect city residents, services, and job opportunities here in Anaheim.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city. Smaller hotels, including family owned “momandpop” hotelswilllikely justgooutofbusiness.
Plus, theincreased costsofdoing business inAnaheim overall willmake ittougher forAnaheim toattract and retain thebigtrade shows andconventions likeNAMM andNatural Products, andmake ittougher forfamilies andtourists tojustify thecostsofavacation totheAnaheim Resort.
Andthose increased costs could alsoresult inachilling effect onbusiness development throughout Anaheim, butespecially where tourism matters most: intheAnaheim Resort. Tourism developments, including new hotels, could slowdown orbecanceled outright because nobusiness willwanttomake asignificant investment inacitywhere costs aregoing toskyrocket.

DearAnaheim CityCouncil,
OnMay16youareslated tocertify thepetition toadopt anordinance which would drastically impact hotels throughout theCityofAnaheim. While promoted asameasure toincrease hotelworker safety, thispoorly drafted proposal contains wage andwork rules requirements thatwould devastate Anaheim hotels, withripple effects thatwould gutAnaheim’sbudget.
Hotels throughout Anaheim, andespecially intheAnaheim Resort area, areresponsible forgenerating millions ofdollars inrevenue forthecity. According tothecity’sownestimate, Anaheim Resort hotels willgenerate 172million for2022-2023. Those dollars arecritical tofunding Anaheim services suchasparks and recreation, maintaining andrepairing roads andinfrastructure, community andsenior services, andthepublic safety services likepoliceandfirethatAnaheim residents relyon.
Imposing thepending wage andworkrulesonAnaheim hotels willbeacostly newmandate. Many workers whoweresupposed tobenefit willlikely seetheirhours reduced, ortheirjobseliminated. Larger hotelswill raisetheirprices forrooms, amenities, andservices, resulting infewer hotelstays andless taxrevenue forthe city.
