Dear Palo Alto City Council Members,
I'm writing to support the selection of Alta Housing on June 17 for agenda items 4. and 10. #4. is the approval of Alta Housing to develop the surface parking lot at Kipling and Lytton for Affordable Housing.

I respect the housing expertise of Alta Housing and encourage you to move forward with this initiative to convert this surface parking lot into affordable housing, relying on the leadership of Alta Housing for management of this initiative.
#10. In addition, I encourage

you to approve the Professional Contract with Alta Housing BMR Services for Administration and Consulting Services for the City's below market rate housing program. I look forward to seeing the good things that develop from this important initiative. I have great respect for the expertise of Alta Housing and their director Randy Tsuda and encourage you to select this respected community leader in housing

solution analysis and
project development to make real progress for our community.

Thank you for your leadership in this important area.

Dear Mayor Lauing and Council Members,
I ask you to approve

an exclusive negotiating agreement with Alta
Housing to develop the parking lot at the corner of Kipling Street and Lytton Avenue into affordable housing.

Alta Housing has a very successful housing record with Palo Alto and will select some families with a history of homelessness to occupy some units.

Alta Housing

has excellent screening and support services to offer
residents.

Please enable them to get started now in putting together the steps needed to bring this to a reality.

Thank you for your consideration of this valued development.
