Dear Mayor Stone and council members,
Please support the Housing Authority's latest proposal for Buena Vista Flaherty and the staff have worked tirelessly with residents to reach this design that meets the minimum unit threshold while also meeting the requirements for safe preservation of new mobile home units.

She has kept me abreast of their developments during the past year.

Also if appropriate, please support their requests for financial support for the apartment complex.
thank you
Stephen Levy

Dear City Council Members,
I'm writing today with comments regarding the Study Session to Provide Early Feedback About the Proposed Redevelopment of Buena Vista Mobile Home Park at 3980 El Camino Real on March 4, 2024.

My primary request would be for the updated design of the mobile home park to remove the entrance that is on Los Robles and only have an entrance on El Camino.

The key reason for this request is to reduce the car traffic going in and out of the mobile home park and also on Los Robles as this is a primary bicycle route for Gunn High School students and the reduction of car traffic will help these students have a safer ride.

If an entrance to the mobile home park is absolutely required on Los Robles, the second best design would be to move the entrance on Los Robles closer to El Camino, at least east of Villa Vera. This will reduce the car traffic to and from the mobile home park through the town home complex - to/from Los Robles through Villa Vera, Villa Real, and Villa Vista to/from Vista Avenue. These cars are going very fast through the town home complex only to pass through and do not visit any residents there. In addition, the cars going to/from the mobile home park to/from Villa Vera are also passing across the path of students bicycling home from Gunn High School toward El Camino which impacts these students' safety.

Thanks very much for your attention to these requests. Our children's safety is a priority.

Sincerely,
Jane Stepak
Palo Alto, CA 94306
