I commend the MV City Council and city staff for developing and managing the Safe Parking program. It is so much better for everybody to have the RVs off the streets, in a safe area, with services and case workers. However, I would still like to hear a truthful statement of how and the timing of this county-leasing "loophole" being found. Couldn't this breakthrough have happened much earlier?

A local success story ??? Roads are closed for driving, Parks are closed, no one is out working or commuting and Safe parking is a success? Why don't we claim successful Clean air act for no SMOG and recycle bag use failure.

Often, there is a way to make compassionate movement, you just need to find a will. I'm glad somebody (Simitian and his staff is my first guess) made this leap of compassion to work. I do not believe with the MV Mayor or the Vice Mayor were those elected people (do you?).

I guess they KNOW that the ballot measure to repeal it is going to pass this time.
I wonder what information they have.
