Hello City Council
I wanted to bring to your attention about the issue that mooring holders are facing. Working with the harbor commission but we do not feel we have their attention.
Charging 4 times the rate to people with moorings vs people with home docs for the same amount of the harbor, and now proposing to charge 10 times more for people with moorings.
The cartoon was in a newspaper and the City of Newport Beach is looking bad among the voting residents
�he City of Newport Beach & Discrimination toward mooring holders — Signs of discrimination
Unequal Treatment: Mooring holders feel they are being treated unfairly compared to others in similar situations such as being charged higher fees for their mooring. This perception of unequal treatment can lead to feelings of frustration and injustice.
Institutional Discrimination: There's a belief among mooring holders that the city government is systematically discriminating against them by charging them higher fees. This form of discrimination is seen as embedded within the institutional framework of the city's policies and practices.
Lack of Representation: Mooring holders may feel that they lack adequate representation in the political sphere, maki ng it difficult for them to advocate far their interests and address issues of discrimination and unequal treatment effectively.
It's important for the pity to address these concerns seriously, as perceptions of discrimination and institutional bias can have significant implications for trust in government and social cohesion. Open dialogue transparency, and efforts to address systemic inequalities are essential in addressing these issues effectively.
