Hello,
As a consequence of the Eaton Canyon wildfire I am asking for the City to enact a rent freeze and an eviction moratorium for all units in Pasadena. It is only fair to the people of Pasadena who have suffered loss and devastation to feel protected by their city.

Thankyouforyour consideration.

Dear City Council Members
Many people in Pasadena and surrounding communities need housing immediately. I askyou consider following the lead of Santa Monica and open up ways for owners to make housing available without the burden of becoming a permanent landlord.

The fastest way to do this is to use the existing provisions in the City Charter section 1805(a), which already allow a 12-month tenancy in some single family homes. By temporarily extending this to ADUs, condos, and other units, you will immediately provide housing to victims of the fires.

This will allow our displaced neighbors to stay in the area so their children to continue their education, so they can rebuild their homes, or so they can continue in the local jobs. What this will NOT do is overthrow Measure H or create a large class of unprotected tenants.

Please urgently consider this temporary waiver, which will allow a rapid increase in available housing while we wait for rebuilding to take place.

Hello Mr Mayor and Council Members:

I hope you and your families are all coping as best as possible with the ongoing situation.

I'm writing to ask as part of the recent health emergency declaration that measurements of fire-caused toxins that are not covered by the AQI be something the city deems necessary information for public health the upcoming period of time.

I'm by no means an expert on the subject but i believe this LA Times article and another succinctly summarize the issue well:
https://laist.com/news/health/air-quality-index-smoke
https://www.iQair.com/us/newsroom/whv-is-the-aQi-Rood-when-theres-ash-in-the-air The expert advice details how the AQi measurement will miss large particles and other metal and asbestos based toxins that may be very prevalent in households that burned in Pasadena and close nearby.

In my view, a statement with guidance about what kind of measuring the city or county can provide on a regular basis, where it can be found, how often it can be updated, and of course what kind of measurements can and should be tracked would seem to be extremely helpful to young families with children like mine and other individuals that are particularly susceptible to airborne irritants. In fact, I'm hoping this is already under consideration and there can be some guidance from your staffs soon.

Thank you for your work so far to inform and keep the public safe and your consideration on this topic.

Pasadena City Council:

First, thank you all for your leadership and service at this very difficult time.

We are grateful for you.

Please be cognizant of the timeless principle that to restrict a market will only make demand increase.

I know the activists abhor the idea of waiving the restrictions levied by Measure H on UNOCCUPIED Condos, Single Family Homes, ADU's and apartments. But please know that these owners have consciously decided to keep their properties off the market because of Measure H's onerous regulations.

Waiving Measure H via 1805(a) for UNOCCUPIED units ONLY would increase supply of housing immediately.

Thank you and please feel free to call upon me if I may help you or your families! Regards,
