Really - the City needs to comply with Federal, State and County law and requirements. The City is a municipality and needs to submit to the law and the appropriate hierarchy in governments. The City’s continual attempt to operate in other governmental agencies jurisdiction does not serve its constituents. Take a look at the encampments on the City of Sacramento’s property (Mack Road, overpass under highway 99, etc.) with no plan for maintenance or to address the biohazards throughout the community. Work with other governmental agencies to develop holistic solutions rather than creating ineffective silos grabbing resources with no plan or solution.

Strongly in support of this, thank you SacPD!
3,750 people getting injured and killed on Sacramento roads (not including highways) and it’s getting worse - would really like to see Council dedicate more funding to this (and fund more permanent changes like infrastructure investments in traffic calming)

I will support mixed use, mixed income and low income housing in Sacramento. Extending these kind of housing developments into more neighborhoods (land park, Tahoe park, Arden, midtown) will go a long way to help relive the housing crisis.

I support support policies that increase the amount of affordable housing in Sacramento and welcome more affordable housing in my neighborhood off Stockton Blvd.

I support policies that increase the amount of affordable housing in Sacramento. I also urge the council to make sure that housing that very low and no income people can access and live in is also prioritized for building. There are many people who need housing who cannot afford housing that qualifies as "affordable", and we can't leave them behind.

I support staff's recommendation, which will help activate currently vacant lots along Stockton Blvd.

Stop flooding only the working class neighborhoods with extremely low income and homeless housing. It is not fair to those who are trying to make their neighborhoods a better place to live against the odds. Crime increases when these projects are put in place. Neighborhoods should not have multiple projects in a row when other neighborhoods do not have anything. Build in East sac, Curtis Park, land park, and Natomas before burdening us more.

The City Council isn't qualified to vote on this based upon the housing shortage that Steinberg's 30 years of "leadership" has given us...

As much as Sacramento needs "Affordable Housing", one of these projects - 440 Arden - is a traffic and parking nightmare. The only vehicular entrance and egress for the 124 units is a narrow driveway (that also leads to an RT parking lot) off of a narrow street very near a light rail crossing. The project provides much fewer than 1 parking space per unit, and all adjacent streets are either restricted parking or barely wide enough for 2 cars to pass without cars parked.

At Resources for Independent Living (RIL), we help people with disabilities find accessible, affordable housing that accept housing vouchers. We help people develop independent living skills, learn to advocate for what they need, learn about assistive technology, help people prepare for disasters, work with youth, help people find and work with personal care assistants, help people transition out of facilities into the community and prevent people from going to facilities.
The focus of the independent living movement is the realization that freedom to make choices and live in the community is a basic civil right that should be extended to all people, regardless of disability. RIL staff work with the consumer to promote their independence in the community. This differs from many social service agencies which play a caretaker or protector role to “vulnerable populations.” We believe the freedom to make choices, including mistakes, empowers people to further their involvement in their life and community.
At RIL we serve about 80 people per year with housing concerns, including those who are unhoused or with insecure housing. The Kind Project will develop affordable accessible housing and increase the number of accessible housing units near public transit and connected to support services. It will provide much-needed accessible housing at an attainable rent where tenants can age in place without worry of housing instability. This project will have centralized resources for services, such as those provided by RIL and other service providers.
Having service providers in a single location will allow tenants easier access to services so they can remain independent in their homes.
I hope this information is helpful as you consider City Council Meeting Agenda Item 14. Please let me know if you need further information.

I'm thinking that you should reconsider partnering with developers on this... That's a lot of liability to ask them to take on... I'm concerned the city and others might ultimately be liable for that mistake...

The City of Sacramento needs to develop a homelessness strategy that balances placement throughout the city.
The ratio of green spaces in the underserved communities should not be the go to address the problem. The City needs to place a restriction on placing sites in District 2, 5, 6 and 8 until it equitable distributes the problem in District 1, 3, 4 and 7. The ratios need to be balanced before placing sites near schools and churches in District 2, 5, 6 and 8 removing green spaces and placing danger near our children. Y ou have selected the green space near a charter school for a homeless site. That is like placing a site in the middle of the American River sites, McKinley Park and on Rodeo Way down the street from Kit Carson. (See attached photos) John Doe

Please remind Angelique that this is not a classroom and she does not have a captive audience... As such, she should be a slightly more brief in her crazy ramblings or go to public comment with the rest of them...
