Good afternoon Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and Council -
I am writing to you today to inform and invite you to a "Meet the Candidates" event at the Redwood Neighborhood Council next Wednesday, May 6th, 2026, at 6:00 PM. All local candidates, including Congressional District 26 and Assembly District 38, have been invited. So far, I have 8 candidates confirmed, which includes three Congressional candidates, both candidates for County Clerk, both candidates for County Treasurer, and the current Superintendent of Schools who is up for re-election. I anticipate at least a few more.
My mother is the President of the church where the Redwood Neighborhood Council meets, so when she and the council chair approached me to help organize this meeting/event, I was excited at the opportunity. This is a big moment for South Oxnard. Due to historic low turnouts in the region, candidates often overlook the area for direct engagement with constituents. Residents in the area want more engagement, though, and were afraid candidates would not come - but now, we are overwhelmed with how many have accepted our invitation. I think the tide is turning and more people are becoming involved in the community, and activated to use their voices at the polls. We should be proud our city is improving on this issue.
The meeting will be held at 905 Redwood Street, Oxnard, CA 93033. It is a neighborhood church entitled Our Saviors; parking is readily available in both the lot and on the streets. As with all neighborhood council meetings, it is open to all residents of Oxnard. Please share with those you might feel have interest in attending.
I have also attached a flyer, and it is our hope Samantha gets it into the weekly packet this week as well.
Respectfully -

Issues
I have read 40 pages of comments from the survey that was submitted. Fixing roads seemed to be the number 1 issue, followed by addressing the homeless and addressing traffic issues including speeding, reckless driving and illegal parking. Beatification issues such as, cleaning beaches and parks, trees and public rest rooms, poor police response, and opening the Carnegie Museum were some of the common themes. My personal favorite was item 390 addressing the lack of long-term financing (ten years) of long-term projects. Such projects that are currently part of the 5-year Priorities, restore proper street paving cycle, ensure adequate water supply and repair sea walls have not been done.
It is my experience that public safety does not respond to calls for service in a timely fashion 30 minutes for a non-priority calls including fireworks, if they respond at all, but public safety is allocated more than 50% of the General Fund including the Carmen Override. Campus Park has not been started even though funds for the park were collected through developer fees for East and west Village. Fire Station 9 was not completed as part of the 10-year fire Department plan. The state gave the city $5,000,000 for the pool at college park. The city manager promised an aquatic center would be built by 2026.
Political Promises are not legally binding. It does speak of the value of the word of the city manager when a promise is made after a 5-hour public hearing.

# RESPONSES DA TE
1 Better and more traffic enforcement for bikes, pedestrians, and motor vehicles. 4/14/2026 9:53 PM 2 Reopening the Carnegie Art Museum 4/14/2026 8:37 AM
3 Safer sidewalks over freeway 4/14/2026 8:35 AM
4 Too many homeless in our city after opening of your homeless shelter. It's becoming a problem. We're not okay with homes having renters which is becoming a huge problem. Not okay with artificial grass.
4/14/2026 8:25 AM
5 I want a beautiful park with ponds & swans and ducks & trees NO SPORTS! Where one can walk or sit and enjoy nature.
4/14/2026 8:22 AM
6 Please refrain from building stop lights every 2 houses. Save Oxnard's $$ to innovate better things. Maybe it's time to hire a new City Planner, Designer or Architect. 4/14/2026 8:21 AM
7 Restoration or use of the Carnegie Art Museum 4/13/2026 1:01 PM 8 culture! Reopen the Carnegie Art Museum! 4/13/2026 9:08 AM 9 HIGH RISK YOUTH PROGRAMS 4/13/2026 6:27 AM
10 South Oxnard cleanliness and upkeep should be a priority. It has fallen into disrepair as the city focuses on North Oxnard and the collection area.
4/12/2026 12:01 PM
11 Traffic safety measures to include improvements to streets and roads: lights, traffic signals, street lighting, road conditions
4/11/2026 9:36 PM
12 Clean up and landscape Oxnard Blvd. between Pleasant Valley and Rose Ave. We have a bright new sign indicating to drivers they are in "Oxnard" then there is blight on that stretch of roadway (about 1 mi.) that isn't a very inviting entrance to Oxnard. Frequently, there are items dumped along the road i.e. mattresses, old furniture etc. Clean it up, landscape it and finish the job, make Oxnard attractive to all.
4/11/2026 7:30 AM
13 In the future knowing “how” Oxnard will do these things would help me to better understand what my ratings mean in practice
4/9/2026 7:12 PM
14 Finish the alley improvements that were promised years ago. Doris Avenue between C and A St. hasn't been addressed/properly repaved in decades. Poor drainage deteriorates existing roadway material on a regular basis.
4/9/2026 6:29 PM
15 The goal of improved self reliance is admirable, but Oxnard must lead the county in meaningful, community relationships in all of the above listed categories with its neighboring cities such as Camarillo, Port Hueneme and Ventura. We have to elect a new congressional representative soon! The councils of these cities need to be on the same page of constructive communication. The larger cities must lead by demonstrating, and exhibiting successful models of community quality of life, so the smaller surrounding cities can experience such growth and contribute to our improved success. This includes our agriculture, commercial, and residential infrastructure, along with our ongoing tourist and transportation issues. Oxnard continues to grow and will exceed a population of 300,000 in another 10 years. Our airport and train station are important mechanisms and need support! Baby Boomer retirees (with talent and resources) will make up a significant percentage of our population for the next 30 years! Ventura, Camarillo, and Port Hueneme will experience large population growth as well, whether anyone wants it or not. We have to be ready to embrace such growth, while managing the benefits and challenges that will occur. This budgeting session needs focus on the many business, civic and community models we have and adapt such models in a larger community scale for our city, and as a reference for our neighboring cities, while encouraging them to do the same. These remarks may seem lofty, but they are a stark reminder of exactly where we are at this time. We made some good progress in recent years. The pandemic stifled us for a 4/9/2026 4:16 PM

time, but no more. Yes, we won’t have the money on hand we have had, which means the need for a viable master plan that is adaptable and flexible over the next five years (and beyond) is important. That same master plan needs to be structured and ready when the better times come a few years down the road. Thank you for the opportunity to share our concerns and optimism! Best success!
16 Keeping the harbor seawater clean. Provide cleaning materials to boaters for oil, gas, pollulant spills. Educate about washing off boat engines , cleaners to use, minimize pollutants into the water.
4/8/2026 6:56 PM
17 Addressing multiple cars at one house. Leave no parking for the people that live there prior! 4/8/2026 11:52 AM 18 Flock safety is a privacy problem. The city should have an anti-crime cameras system like the old community cameras.
4/8/2026 9:57 AM
19 It should be a top priority to replace the public housing that was demolished in the Colonia Neighborhood. When I left the Housing Department in 2018 as Housing Director, we had completed the first and second phases of new apartments. There was a contractor on board, with a plan approved by the City Council, including viable funding sources, to complete the remaining phases. The City Manager's office should explain why its Planning Department was the biggest obstacle to carrying out this project, and why a single unit of required replacement housing has not been built since 2018.

20 The bridge along the freeway connecting Ventura Blvd to Johnson is covered in trash both on the inside of the bridge and on the freeway. The bridge is also covered in vandalism. 4/7/2026 8:04 PM
21 Please continue to invest in beautification of the city and improvements to the Downtown area 4/7/2026 7:12 PM 22 Dumping and trash collection 4/7/2026 5:45 PM
23 Priority: Traffic - the Avalon project will impact Harbor Blvd traffic significantly 4/7/2026 3:39 PM 24 Stop pointing fingers and start working together to make it happen. City council meetings are more about stating their arguments and bashing other councils rather than solving what matters. I’m sorry but the city of Oxnard has too many cliques so it will always end up one sided.
4/7/2026 3:37 PM
25 public safety and emergency management are bare minimum 4/7/2026 3:37 PM 26 Priority should be given to the youth. To many kids with nothing to do leads to trouble. Maybe great programs with great incentives. (Gift cards / free meals/ shopping) (I’d donate) 4/7/2026 2:05 PM
27 Enforcing parking codes, parking is a tremendous issue we are all aware of, but there are many parking violations that need to be addressed. Those include parking of large RV in residential areas, parking infront of a fire hydrant, blocking sidewalks and driveways, no visibility due to large taco trucks and car washers blocks the streets and parking too close to the curb.
4/7/2026 1:04 PM
28 More maines in the playground for kids 4/7/2026 1:00 PM 29 all really are important! 4/7/2026 12:42 PM
30 Keeping streets & public ares clean & safe 4/7/2026 12:38 PM 31 Public areas need more lights and streets need controlled parking 4/7/2026 12:32 PM 32 Reopening the Carnegie Museum, like it was promised to us when we voted to raise the sales tax to 9.25%. Also, to give equal attention in beautifying the parks in South Oxnard. I wrote to our former mayor, Mr. Zaragoza, many times with my ideas for Beck Park. Each time he replied to say he would get back to me, but never did.

33 None 4/6/2026 5:29 PM
34 Why's there too much unaffordable housing? Traffic is horrendous 4/6/2026 3:25 PM 35 Timely Road maintenance (pot hole repairs) and transit system (affordable, speedy & convenient routes)
4/6/2026 1:45 PM
36 This list seems to be an attempt to get citizens to realize that desirable public programs exist in tension with each other. It doesn't really further a serious consideration of priorities. For example, public safety, 911 response times, and fire protection are all First Responder 4/6/2026 12:43 PM

concerns, and are rightly a single priority. Water quality and clean parks are infrastructure issues. Homelessness, senior services, income-gap and youth related programs all fall under the general heading of social services (although the homelessness issue deserves to be considered as a single problem through all levels of government, not just municipal). A better and more direct way to frame this is to simply say that a range of services will cease to have a funding base with the sunset of Measure O, and that the priority choice is actually one between a bleaker future with reduced support of many vital programs, and a brighter, more desirable future with the replacement of Measure O funding (via some successor mechanism).
The priority discussion I would actually like to see happen is the one where all stakeholders participate a "blue sky" discussion of what a truly livable Oxnard would look like in 2050 if budget concerns were ignored for the moment--light rail, connected green belts, taco truck Thursdays, whatever--rather than the valuable but stifling 2030 General Plan approach. Then, apply real-world budget planning to that list and see what becomes possible. 37 Street landscaping improvement and maintenance 4/6/2026 8:32 AM 38 Please re-open the Carnegie Art Museum. It has, in the past, been a resource for all of the arts, including poetry. And it’s not just for adults, The museum is a great resource for free and low cost activities for families and youth.
4/5/2026 1:52 PM
39 What are the metrics to determine effectiveness? What is the current effectiveness level for tax $ spent?
4/5/2026 12:04 PM
40 No new taxes… Oxnard’s sales tax is sending consumers to other cities 4/5/2026 12:00 PM 41 parks and green space . all of these above categories are important. 4/5/2026 7:12 AM 42 One critical area that should be prioritized is the development of sustainable, living-wage job opportunities within the county. Many of the challenges these programs aim to address— housing instability, public safety concerns, and access to education—are directly tied to economic opportunity. Without a strong local job base, funding cuts to other areas may have compounded negative effects. Investing in workforce development and job creation should be considered a foundational priority.
4/4/2026 11:07 PM
43 Maintain positive spaces and activities - parks, playgrounds, beaches, and libraries. Partner with schools to offer youth swimming programs. Oxnard parks and recreation programming should be comparable to Port Hueneme or Ventura -hours accessible to working families and more consistency/classes rather than single events
4/4/2026 8:50 PM
44 Citing loud vehicles, controlling double-parked vehicles, and parking enforcement 4/4/2026 8:27 PM 45 Keeping public parks free of loitering, homeless, and gambling groups which deters families and youth from accessing local parks.
4/4/2026 7:14 PM
46 Fireworks issues. These can be nonstop from May though the summer here in Oxnard Shores 4/4/2026 2:13 PM 47 WHile those are all important, I would like to see more development of Oxnard as an attractive place to visit and reside. So Fix the Carnegie museum. Improve the harbor. Develop walking and biking trails. Things like that. Yes, the items you listed are critical, but not enough. And I know funds are scarce.
4/4/2026 9:27 AM
48 Provide speed bumps in the alleys 4/4/2026 8:20 AM
49 To reopen the Carnegie Art Museum ASAP as a functioning museum. 4/3/2026 10:13 PM 50 Cut taxes not increase them. Stop spending money on crap like survey. We all know this is a ruse to justify keeping that expiring tax and likely raise it. Get rid of the city manager. He authorizes spending up to $100,000 on crap like this with stroke of the pen. 4/3/2026 8:57 PM
51 Keeping homeless encampments and taco stands from popping up on sidewalks. Keeping the city clean and safe. Keep city streets maintained.
4/3/2026 8:26 PM
52 Community churches, synagogues, mosques involvement at city council to understand their budgets and help with underserved and how best to use gov funding to interleave with these efforts.
4/3/2026 7:34 PM
53 Maintaining road/street conditions. 4/3/2026 4:03 PM 54 Given the cuts at the state and federal levels, the vulnerable amongst us are even more vulnerable. It is our financial and moral obligation to ensure these populations are protected. 4/3/2026 3:23 PM

66 You create laws such as no alley parking, but do not enforce them. Our alley is often nearly obstructed with parked cars. An empty lot on CStreet is now filled with parked cars. 4/1/2026 3:22 PM
67 More needs to be done to address rampant illegal fireworks before some idiots burn down a neighborhood; we need stricter enforcement with steeper and escalating penalties for repeat offenders.

71 Please prioritize voters & tax payers for a better Oxnard. I believe to serve the homeless, but it should equally shared among other cities in the county, NOT place a heavy burden on Oxnard. If the homeless are not true Oxnard residents, send them to place of residence, focus on Oxnard residents.

82 There are too many homeless in the community. I know it’s a hard topic bc at the end of the day they are human like everyone else. And really it’s not so much homeless problem as it is a drug addiction problem. But there are just too many around our children’s schools. Our family parks. And they’re being bussed from LA further putting more stress and resources on the community.

144 Enforcement of existing laws that benefit Oxnards beautiful environment. E.g. all dumpsters should have their lids closed instead of being left open to prevent littering and attraction of pests. Additionally, apartment complexes and businesses should have compost bins as well to reduce the amount of trash going to the landfill.

165 No suggestions come to mind at this time. 3/19/2026 4:23 PM 166 1. Work with housing non-profits to make adding an additional dwelling unit (tiny house) easy.
Homeowners sign-up with a small deposit. Everything is turn-key with loan payments starting after the ADU is ready for occupancy. Addresses the cost of housing (which affects the cost of everything else) and homelessness. 2. Start a Coastal Ecosystem Resilience District.
Resilience Districts are empowered and motivated to pay for sea level rise and climate change adaptations with income from their projects - For example, tourist and seafood income from a large-area living reef that restores kelp forest ecosystems. Details available. 3/19/2026 1:38 PM

As a homeowner since 2009, I've seen a decline in any safety/police/security measure to do anything about the destructive behavior. To increase revenue for Oxnard one idea we would all benefit from is pay for parking at the garage. It'll deter teenagers & young adults from using the parking garage as a car show meet & drug activity. 3/18/2026 11:37 AM

3/15/2026 6:21 PM
275 The city should be focusing on public safety and infrastructure. Start building o balance a budget, and do bot ask the citizens for an additional tax. Cut programs that are “nice to have but not necessary” such as feeding the elderly, paying for immigration and paying to house the homeless. People should be held accountable for life choices. 3/15/2026 6:16 PM

289 1. Good to see speed bumps recently installed on Cesar Chavez Drive. Wood be good to see more speed bumps in neighborhood such as on M. L. King Blvd., Juanita Rd, and others. The bumps are good deterrence on drivers who would show off their noisy cars late at night, and also improves safety in the neighborhood especially near the schools. 2. Dog park in the vicinity of West Village and East Village. Many people walk their dogs daily and would be good if these dogs have a nearby park where they can play with other dogs. Dog parks on Fifth St, College Park and Collections are a bit too far. 3. More street lights on the park side along Cesar Chavez (between Gottfield Pl and Teresa St) and along Teresa St (between Cesar Chavez and M. L. King). These sections of the road are very dark at night. Many people walk these areas at night and to have additional lights would greatly improve visibility, security and safety. 4. Bike safety training in public schools. Many neighborhood kids just don't know the rules of the road and they can get injured when they're horseplaying or not paying attention to motorists.

The city has allowed Adu units, triplexes, garage conversions, excessive room rentals and these have over burdened the street parking in front of homes owned by the home owners. 1 house will have 9, 10, 14 cars and there can be multiple homes on a block. These homes take most of the parking. It is not fair to the rest of the people. Some people have handicaps or are older and can't be walking far distances. Isn't there a limit to the number of people living in one residence? There use to be. People are parking on corners, in front of fire hydrants. Very unsafe. 3/11/2026 12:34 PM
320 Implement and increase birth control access, incentives, programs, women’s healthcare clinics, high school education lessons and outreach aimed at lowering human fertility rates , over population, irresponsible breeding, and thus poverty and crime. Incentivizing 1 child/2 adults over 30 years old will improve quality of life for everyone and lessen and prevent societal problems. Regarding fire prevention, please don’t mow down any areas until birds are done nesting, and caterpillars have turned into butterflies. 3/11/2026 10:12 AM

Oxnard already has the highest sales tax in our area, why are we not utilizing those funds for programs. Infrastructure should be a priority. And how about addressing the affordable housing . This is the root of many of our issues, this is probably why parking is a high issue in our neighborhoods. There are a couple of neighbors that have 6-8 cars and there is no parking in front of my home many times. 3/8/2026 7:41 PM
369 When it rains the end of our streets (McMillan track, Blackstock North) are flooded and there's no drainage to decrease the water that collects there which can pose as a safety hazard.
Some examples include Robert Ave, Lark St, Frank Ave and Thomas Ave in the 93033 zip code. The mobile car wash area at the old Citibank at the corner of Saviers Rd and Lark St. is obstructive. The people washing the cars often leave the car doors wide open towards the street and take up room on the already tight streets. The car wash services occupy three sides of the old bank, Saviers Rd, Lark St, Samuel Ave and spreads past down towards the McDonald's on Samuel Ave. People are parking right at the corners of sidewalks in neighborhoods which proves as an obstruction and makes it difficult for other drivers to see when navigating streets.

384 The difference between Camarillo and Oxnard in the care that is given to its community. It seems the tax payer money is actually put to use toward the physical well being of the city.
It’s a clean, nice to look at city simply by a few landscaping differences. I love Oxnard. Over Camarillo for sure. But I would love for this city to have some beauty added to it with green landscaping and keeping up the areas in our city that just seem abandoned or overrun.

390 It is my opinion that the city budget team does not consider the financing a 10-year projects such as the Park Master Plan, Sea Wall replacement, Water / Sewer line upgrades and non- arterial road / alley maintenance. City staff does not consult with CAGs and INCO regarding of the residents of Oxnard when preparing and prioritizing Capital Improvement Projects. Staff is not held accountable for failing to complete project time lines. It is also my opinion that the city has wasted funds by misusing those that were to have been used for specific projects. 1) These 2010 Water bonds were supposed to build the back bone of the city’s water program.
The city built the recycled water plant but did not build the wells to stores the recycled water, instead the city used the funds to build an auditorium at the recycled water center. As a result, the rate payers of potable water are paying over $24,000,000 per year to United Water and Calleguas Water , the farmers have 3,000 acre feet of water more at their disposal, at no cost, and 3 private entities are getting water at $350.00 per acre foot. I use less that two HCF (Hundred Acre Feet) of water per month that cost over $2,000 per acre foot. How much to you pay for an acre foot water (look at the water portion of your Oxnard Utility Bill). 2) The overpass the Rice and 5th Street was approved in 2015 with an estimated cost of $50,000,000. Three years ago the cost went to $95,000,000. Construction was started 2 years ago and is expected to exceed $130,000,000 with a completion date in 2027 (if not in 2028). While city tax dollars only paid for $5,000,000, whose tax dollars are paying form the difference? 3) The area now referred to Sports Park (25 acres on the corner of Gonzales Rd and Oxnard Blvd) was envisioned when city council approved the Northeast Community Specific Plan in1992). The city assessed developers fees to payc forthe inhfrasture Measure O is schedule to sunset soon. The city manager is meeting with neighborhoods to promote a continuation of Measure O. I recommend continuing the ½% sales tax with conditions. 1) The ½% sales tax increase should not fund the General Fund. 2) The ½% sales tax increase should be a source of funding for long term capital improvement projects, but not the only source, perhaps a matching source with general fund. 3) A committee similar (or renamed) should be formed, to advise how the ½% sales tax increase should be spent and not just review how it was spent. 4) The ½% sales tax increase should not fund public safety. 5) The ½% sales tax increase could fund material costs of capital improvement projects, but not the personnel (city employee or consultants) costs. The personnel costs should come from the general fund or enterprise funds. 6) The ½% sales tax increase should not be used to fund debt service. 7) The ½% sales tax increase should not be used to fund liability. City council needs to direct staff to work with CAGs and INCO in preparing budgets

400 Parks are very neglected. Tracks in park are a mess! 3/6/2026 10:46 AM 401 I’d also like to ask for additional focus and equity for South Oxnard. It’s disappointing to see so much attention placed on the more tourist heavy areas of North Oxnard. around Vineyard Road, the Cowboy football field area, and the Collection… while South Oxnard often feels overlooked. I also want to mention that while I understand and appreciate the enthusiasm that comes with protests or championship celebrations (like the Dodgers), it’s really discouraging to see the mess that’s often left behind afterward. especially along Saviers and in the empty parking lot in front of McDonald’s. I know this is part of a broader issue, but it still isn’t okay.
Sometimes it feels like if this kind of activity happened at the Collection, it would be shut down pretty quickly. But when it happens in South Oxnard, it doesn’t seem to get the same level of attention or response. Thank you for taking the time to read and consider these concerns. 3/6/2026 9:37 AM

Camarillo when it comes to park quality and robust recreational opportunities. lastly, I hope the city changes it's stance and lobbies against AB1383. it was recently shared at my neighborhood council meeting that the city is enforcing this utopian law and will soon be fining people for not complying. dont get me wrong, we should do our part to recycle and properly sort trash and green waste, but we should not be fined for putting food waste in the trash. 444

446 STOP spending money we don’t have. If there is no money for senior meals or anti drug problems, it is the consequences of the city NOT managing their money in a responsible way.
If I managed my money the way the City (and state and federal government) manages their money, I’d be in prison. Any of the items above with the word “programs” is an open ended statement that allows for mismanagement of funds. #9 should not even be on the list. It’s questionable as to weather #5 should be on the list as well. Remember: When the government starts taking responsibility for the people, the people stop take responsibility for themselves.
Everyone should have the privilege, the right, and the responsibility to take care of themselves-including accepting the consequences of their choices with out having the government take control.

483 Fireworks are a major issue. I've read about drone surveillance, fines, etc. There doesn't seem to be any enforcement in Lemonwood, and every year it has gotten worse.

Stop the over development and multifamily densification of Oxnard build single family homes with yards and tell the state to go fuck themself like Huntington Beach has Make Oxnard more like the beach cities of northern San Diego County
495 I love that we do the mulch and compost program but it’s a hassle having to do a minimum order size and going through Agromin. Sometimes I just need a few bags for top offs. I like how LA has a few sites throughout the city where you can bring your own shovels and buckets and self serve for mulch and compost. It would be very helpful to have something like that.
There are so many empty areas around the city that would work perfectly for this. 3/2/2026 10:39 AM
496 Cooperating with federal law enforcement agencies. 3/2/2026 10:30 AM 497 none of the items above are a priority. please stop increasing our water rates and taxes. There is no reason why we should be in a drought or being charged for having water. there is no drought. we live next to the pacific ocean, our lakes have water. treat our home water properly, i have had brown water come out of my faucet, sand even. we do not need any more aid for the homeless or seniors do not need meals they are fine. the anti gang/ drug programs are useless and a waste of money when the drug users can self check out of these drug programs- bring back the mental hospitals. people want faster response times for 991 calls - let our law enforcement work- stop mistreating them and protesting against them and how they do their jobs- people wanted to defund the police - their you go- let law enforcement provide us saftey- instead of protecting our criminals

staff HR has to be looked into on how they hire. Great candidates are overlooked for full time positions. Too much nepotism in who gets hired in City of Oxnard and older employees must retire.
512 Stop spending all all the police and fire boondoggle education. 3/1/2026 7:06 PM 513 Recently the Oxnard Police Department made it impossible to listen to their radio broadcasts.
This was an important tool for citizens to help the police. Police calls should be public. Oxnard is also a sanctuary city. Criminals that are here illegally should be turned over to Border Patrol.
The police used to do this and citizens were a lot safer. I was recently a victim of someone here illegally that has a criminal record. This would not have happened if he had been turned over to the authorities and dealt with. I have watched the city council meetings and the way the city is enabling them is wrong. People are stalking ICE agents and bragging about it to the city council. This is very wrong and I have talked to numerous people about this and they agree. If we were to come to a meeting and object to this we would be targeted by these people. We should not be funding these people with city money. It needs to stop and criminals need to be dealt with properly.

520 All of the above services are important. We pay more taxes than Ventura and Camarillo and we should have all of these services. The important thing here is what you do to resolve the problematic, I don’t think giving priority helps at all. Lowering the salaries of the higher ranks in the different departments would be more helpful and beneficial. 3/1/2026 3:04 PM
521 I don’t agree with this survey. I believe all of these items are important. I’m equally curious to know how exactly these items will be addressed. Will funds be pulled from other programs to make other programs possible?? There are limited funds for the city but there’s enough funds to beautify city hall?? How exactly will you address homelessness when a recent encampment on 5th street was destroyed??

Don’t build a huge aquatic center just build the pools. We just need pools.
We don’t need a slide. We don’t need a lazy river. We just need Access to pools for lap, swimming, and senior programs water aerobics, swim team and swim club as well as water polo. What happened to the city of Oxnard used to provide swim lessons in the summertime for the children using the high school pools? Why don’t we have this program anymore?

They’re also needs to be improvement for Oxnard Special Populations to provide more services for the disabled community as well as Seniors. The city of The city of Oxnard should also prioritize add protections for our farm workers and a vulnerable immigrant population That are a huge asset to our economy. Due to the current political climate, they are subject to harassment, profiling, violence and other harm. The city should provide assistance and safety nets for them and their families.

540 PIE CHART PLEASE! Considering the cost of mailing out postcards, I think a more comprehensive set of budget numbers would help give scope to cuts without additional funding. And how much is the shortfall in each category? A pie-wedge with drastic reduction in a given category vs slight reduction is easier to grok…and makes future bond initiatives easier to justify. At the risk of sounding like a Casandra, Low-toxicity water isn’t a sexy sell and may seem trivial vs more immediate harmful impacts if potholes are under-funded…even 911- response times…HOWEVER IF the city’s cancer-rates & neuro-issues like ALS & Parkinson’s spike (groundwater w/ frack+Ag chemicals), property tax income drops - and never again will revenue support quality services as now exist. Low-probability / HIGH-consequence. Disease- mapping is only getting more available and accurate.

584 All issues listed are important. My hope is that County funding and private contributions will support the items I put lower on the list. Homelessness is a real issue. Drug and alcohol use are almost universal. I always try to ask people that I come across where they are from.
Rarely do they say they are from Oxnard. I think there is a cyclical trend to this. Growing up I remember unhoused Vets camping in Plaza Park. In the ‘80’s I worked on A St. it was closed to traffic then. There were many homeless regulars that would be laid out along the way. I am not sure how to address it, yet. Water is an issue. During a Council meeting someone talked about layers of perhaps unnecessary municipal meter managers that are grandfathered in who are more than likely expendable. Given where we are in history and what role those meter managers truly play. We need to streamline and ensure Oxnard’s water rights. Thank you Teresa

put parking meters at the beach and harbors. We pay freaking enough already to live here.
Visitors should feel welcome. I have not seen the parking lots so crowded as to make paid parking needed. A very inconsiderate thing to do.
589 Lower the cost or get rid of property taxes. 2/1/2026 3:31 PM 590 Just my opinion...and hard to put these in order of importance, but clean water, Police and Fire funding (Emergency services) MUST be a priority.

It is a disgrace and disservice to individuals and families with young children who are from these other cities to end up in Oxnard out of necessity because their city of origin rather utilize their resources to increase their property value and maintain low crime integrity.
Sadly, this leaves this population utilizing City of Oxnard resources simply due to this City provides significantly more resources for the poorest and most disadvantaged populations which depletes our city’s economy.

612 1) More traffic control and monitoring; people drive recklessly. Cars speed and often times run red lights and stop signs. This is a serious concern for all people, of all ages, who can easily become victims of accidents and injuries related to autos being driven unsafely. 2) E-bikes... they're dangerous and all over the roads and walkways. Often driven by children or young teens. What makes these E-bikes any different than a motorcycle? They're on the roads and sidewalks, and being ridden like a motorcycle. 3) Graffiti is a problem. 4) Better crackdown on distracted drivers; talking on their phones while holding onto them and texting while driving (not looking at the road!). 5) More and better options for disposal of hazardous waste and recycleable trash.

maintenance. What was the brown mulch supposed to do besides grow weeds. What about tree lights & decent landscaping or stamped concrete if you can’t afford maintenance 635 Vastly improving the City’s beach and landscape maintenance work. The sand dunes by the Zacharia Hotel should be leveled and the sand sold to other beach cities that need it. The money rasied could funds the clean up the area around Hollywood Beach, the Zacharia Hotel, The Colony and Mandalay Beach. It is embarrassing that we look like we have not swept the sand, taken the hidious dunes down, and planted out medians with proper landscaping. My tax dollars are being wasted.

Millions of dollars have gone into homeless programs yet the number of homeless increases.

646 Making the beach area more accessible for all residents. Our green areas near the beach have become unusable for families who used to picnic and play within sight of the ocean. These areas have also become increasingly dangerous as they increase in height due to poor sand and landscape management so that children and adults can easily take a fall. Sand regularly covers the handicapped walkways because the sand has been pushed off the walkway creating an ever increasingly large pile of sand that continues to fall back onto the pathway making it impossible for anyone with any disability to access it. Palm trees are more than half buried in sand. There are trees that homeless and drug addict sleep in near where families once played. Make our beach areas safe for all Oxnard residents. 1/7/2026 11:48 AM

648 Regarding protection of the public's safety, I'd like to see more police able to patrol Oxnard streets at various hours, as there are bicycle gangs, individuals on drugs, and many unfortunate homeless taking over sidewalks, beach and park benches, hanging out in the dunes and wandering streets. Regarding homelessness, I have always hoped that the City and the state will increase services to help the homeless access quality shelters, social services, and chances to improve their situation and life. I appreciate the opportunity to take this survey and thank the City for its efforts.

653 Public areas around ololkoy Park, Oxnard/Mandalay Beach, and Zachari Dunes Hotel seem to be the city's face for tourism and promotional efforts but the maintenance and upkeep of this area sometimes mirror an old, abandoned beach town rather than a vibrant, inviting community.
I'd add to that the embarrassing (and dangerous) Channel Island Harbor parking lots should they fall under the city's jurisdiction.

My mom was poor, her 11 year oldest brother had to go to work to help support a family of when their father had a stroke and was wheelchairbound. Families, childern and youth can find creative ways to keep themselves out of trouble. My mom would make me play with papertowel rolls. She had a masters and spoke 5 languages fluently, her oldest brother became a math teacher and later many of his students became doctors and nurses who cared for him when he had pancreatic cancer from 1998 to 2003. They didn't have all these programs that are supportive care and they still made it. His kids are all 3 teachers and my sister and I both majored in sciences and got MBAs. I am very empathetic to the seige that we've been under by ICE and think that healthy food and clean water and air are the most important thing as that is the foundation for everything. Health is your wealth. 1/6/2026 5:36 PM
658 We need more services to keep our Oxnard Shores beaches and surrounding areas clean and reduce the shifting sands to reduce the growing sand dunes in and around the hotel. 1/6/2026 4:21 PM
659 The fragile environment of the dunes near the Oxnard Park on Harbor are being destroyed by the public - youth groups running on them weekly. The tiny signs Oxnard installed last year do not make sense, so they are discarded. Oxnard public works digs sand out of the dunes and dumps it in the ocean. You clearly have no one managing this and do not have your best and brightest out there working the heavy machinery. Yes - I have videos of this. 1/6/2026 4:12 PM
660 The City’s landscape and beach maintenance in Oxnard Shores and the sand piles south of the Zachari Dunes Hotel are pathetic and a disgrace to our community. They are an invitation to criminals and public safety hazards. Please make restoring Oxnard’s greatest assets, our beaches and the dedicated public greenbelts and amenities, a priority. 1/6/2026 3:37 PM
661 1. Bicycle education programs - work with local non profits such as the Channel Islands Bicycle Club (www.cibik.org) and Ventura Hub. 2. Provide better information on what the districts are, who the council members represent... very few people know what district they live in. Include updated information on OPD neighborhood police info. No one knows who these people are/ 3. Make sure the mayor, city manager (especially), and councilmembers are non- biased and do not speak disparagingly against ANY political or community figure whether it be national or local. A while back the city manager Nguyen spoke disrespectfully about the president - this was published in local media - many residents were not happy about such biased comments from our city representatives. 4. Take action against unsafe roadways - speeding cars, motorcycle and car racing on Harbor Blvd and Victoria, excessively noisy cars (isn't there a local law limiting vehicle decibels?) 5. The graffiti organization is doing a great job!

Being the largest city in Ventura County requires a lot of work and collaboration to maintain. As an Oxnard citizen for 58 years now, I will do my part in helping to keep our city looking fabulous.

The cost of living is extremely high and to not have a guaranteed spot for both my wife and I to park without worrying about a parking ticket is absurd. I would like to believe the city is in our best interest and would love to see this put into action as you would ease a lot of frustration in this community.

Date Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2026 7:36:49 PM GMT-07:00 Date Received: Wednesday, April 29, 2026 7:37:35 PM GMT-07:00 1) Staff did not include the cost of each item, how can city council prioritize without knowing the cost of the project let alone the financing of the project, not all funding will come from the General Fund? Funding from Enterprise funds should be identity. Expected funding from new taxes should be identified. What will be reduced if the new sales tax is not approved? 2)
Public Safety staffing needs to be change. There can be between 20 - 30 funded, but unfilled police department positions and between 5 to 12 fire unfilled fire department positions that are funded. Measure O pays for these unfilled positions. I propose that 20 police positions be cut from the budget and 5 fire fighter position be cut. The city generally has less than 2 fires per day. 80+ percent for the calls for service for the fire department is for ALS (Advance Life Support or BLS (Basic Life Support). I would suggest that analysis be performed to determine the number of 3 personnel for life support teams of 8 hour shifts would be needed per day. 3)
The city had numerous public meetings for both Sports Park and the aquatic center at College Park. Funding for these projects and completion dates should be identified. 4) The cost of the Urban Water Master Plan (the annual blending of 14,000 acre feet of recycled water) has not been identified. The completion date of the project has not been identified. Staff has sent numerous reports to the state stating the city has sufficient water for 10,000 new housing units even though the city has been a drought status for most of 15 years. Where is the water coming from if the Urban Water Master Plan has not been funded? It has taken 5 years to complete the test well and the well has not been completed let alone tested. 5)
Funding was received for Fire Station 9, but not built. The site in the Northeast Community Plan could be used for 2 ALS / BLS crews per shift. Fire Station 10 (10 year Fire Department Plan could house 2 ALS BLS crews per shift.
6)
Neighborhood streets and alleys need annual funding so each neighborhood street and alley is repaired / resurfaced every 10 years.
7)
Each regional Park needs to be completed in the 2026 – 2020 5 year budget period. 8) The Sea Walls need to be fully repaired in 10 years. 9) Bath rooms need to be repaired; parks need to be cleaned daily. 10) There should be life guard stations at Oxnard Beach. 11) The air needs to be tested throughout the city annually to meet EPA Standards. 12) The radioactive waste site needs to be cleaned up. 13) The Beach Area needs to be cleaned daily if not twice a day. 14) The Carnegie Art Museun needs to be re-opened.

15) The promised new Senior Center needs to be built.
The cost of each of these items and suggested projects need to be identify before city council prioritized project for the next 5 to 10 years.

Funding for these projects and completion dates should be identified. 4) The cost of the Urban Water Master Plan (the annual blending of 14,000 acre feet of recycled water) has not been identified. The completion date of the project has not been identified. Staff has sent numerous reports to the state stating the city has sufficient water for 10,000 new housing units even though the city has been in a drought status for most of the 15 years. Where is the water coming from if the Urban Water Master Plan has not been funded? It has taken 5 years to complete the test well and the well has not been completed let alone tested.
5) Funding was received for Fire Station 9, but it was not built. The site in the Northeast Community Plan could be used for 2 ALS / BLS crews per shift. Fire Station 10 (10 year Fire Department Plan) could house 2 ALS BLS crews per shift. 6) Neighborhood streets and alleys need annual funding so each neighborhood street and alley is repaired / resurfaced every 10 years.
7) Each regional park needs to be completed in the 2026 – 2020 5 year budget period. 8) The Sea Walls need to be fully repaired in 10 years.
