DESCRIPTION:“No Parking For Homeless Vehicles”? NO!\n\nWithout notice to or input 
 from the Unhoused Community, the Public Works Department is planning to ban 
 all parking on Coral Street, Limekiln Street, and Fern Street.\n\nCurrently 
 there are already severe restrictions limiting parking during the day and 
 banning it after midnight on those streets.\n\nThis will significantly 
 impact unhoused and disabled individuals using the services of the Paul Lee 
 Loft, the Page Smith Community House, the Rebele Family Shelter, the 
 Homeless Persons Health Project, the River St. Shelter, and the Homeless 
 Services Center.\n\nThere has been no documentation provided, nor public 
 hearing held around this decision.\n\nRegular users of these services will 
 be significantly impacted by these changes.  This attack on the most 
 vulnerable will hurt the most vulnerable people as they try to obtain food 
 (and less likely) shelter- life-sustaining assistance that they 
 need.\n\nHas the management funded to provide for services and security for 
 homeless people spoken up about this or quietly agreed to proceed with a 
 homeless-vehicle-exclusion program?\n\nJOIN US TUESDAY MAY 5th at 3 PM to 
 find out!\n\nHomeless United for Friendship & Freedom will be serving 
 coffee at Cafe HUFF and gathering signatures opposing the proposed Parking 
 Ban.\n\nWe will also be collecting information on the flood of Sleeping, 
 Blanket, and Camping tickets being issued, whether the Homeless (Lack of) 
 Services Center []HLOSC] and River St. Mini-Shelter is issuing 
 documentation for those on its waiting lists so that police and rangers can 
 be encouraged not to harass, cite, and issue stay-away orders. \n\nUnder MC 
 6.36.055, such behavior is already illegal, but police have continued to do 
 so--and the HLOSC have encouraged this practice by declining to regularly 
 issue evidence that those who have signed up are on the waiting list.\n\nIn 
 addition we will be investigating concerns that the HLOSC is refusing to 
 put in badly needed storage lockers, created a jail-like atmosphere at the 
 center, and ignored other problems.\n
