From: Marcelene Luna <br />To: GRP -City Council <br />Subject: Specula City Council Meeting August 24, 2020 <br />Date: Monday, August 24, 2020 3:34:50 PM <br />I wish to make a public comment on agenda item 7.A. <br />Approval of Temporary Recreational Vehicle Safe ParkingProgram and introduction of ordinance amending Chapter <br />20, Article VII Of the Redwood City Municipal Cose relating to parking of vehicles and repealing provisions <br />prohibited sleeping or living in a vehicle. <br />I think it's great the city is allocating a space for people that are unhoused and living in their cars or RVs. However <br />the proposed space will only accommodate 30-50 when it's a known fact that the need for RV support in our <br />community is much greater. Your own assessment has determined that this has been caused due to our city's lack of <br />affordable , stable permanent housing and insufficient access to social services. <br />Your proposed parking ordinance amendments punishes people for being poor and exceptions continue to be made <br />to laws that protect the residents with means and money to obtain permits that allow them to have their boats, RVs <br />and campers in front of their resident. <br />Do not penalize people for being unhoused and poor while they sleep in their vehicles or RVs. <br />Sincerely, <br />Marcelene Luna <br />Sent from my Whone <br />
