Please do not open attachments or click links from an unknown or suspicious origin. osxfm Dear Mayor and Council members, As you know, our grassroots, non-profit organization serves youth and adults in our community and celebrates Latino culture and heritage through programming in arts, dance, theater music, scholarships and more. This includes our flagship event Dia de Los Muertos here in Redwood City. Since 2009 we have worked to enriched the lives of some of the most vulnerable in our community. This is why Casa Circulo Cultural supports the proposed Harbor View campus in our city. The developer, Jay Paul, has proven time and again to be a dedicated community partner. This is not required and yet they step up on behalf of organizations like ours without hesitation. More importantly, however, the long term funds this project will generate for the city must not be ignored. This includes long overdue improvements to roads and Woodside Road/101, access to bay lands, a new public park, increased revenue to struggling small businesses, funds for our schools and services and S 12 million for affordable housing units here in Redwood City. These are the concerns many members of Casa Circulo's community care about and it is why our organization supports the Jay Paul Harbor View project as it is proposed. As elected officials responsible for ensuring that our city and all of its residents thrive, we hope you will consider the many positive economic impacts this project will offer our community for years to come. Thank you Veronica Escamez Founder Casa Circulo Cultural Redwood Cit , CA 94063 www.circulocultural.ora_
