OFFICIAL PETITION
TO
COUNCIL MEMBERS
SAN JOSE, CA
To Members of the San Jose City Council:
RECEWED SAN JOSE CITY CLERK 2026 FER 25 PHO4:46
There is a national movement underway to cut back on quality-of-life policing methods such as making arrests for vandalism, littering, loitering, vagrancy, public intoxication, and other quality of life violations.
As a registered voter in San Jose, I urge you to maintain all quality-of-life policing methods, vigorously defend these methods, support our police in enforcement of quality-of-life violations, and make sure our district attorney is fully behind quality-of-life policing methods.
Quality of life policing, as well as pro-active policing methods, have cleaned up and maintained order in many neighborhoods in our city and helped reduce more serious crime nationwide between 1985 and 2015 by over 50%.
