Housing Affordability 2. Getting homeless out of our area. Returning parks to their original beauty 3. Affordable housing in Chula Vista 4. Homelessness and equal opportunity for unsheltered persons 5. How to limit growth in a city that is already saturated with thousands of new residents. I know we are the 2nd largest city in the SD County but we should not pursue being the biggest and instead we should focus on quality of life for our residents. Traffic and safety is a big issue. New schools and new businesses and restaurants should be the focus and not more housing. 6. Homeless issues is a problem. 7. Keeping our community affordable for all. Young and old 8. Shelter for those living on the streets. 9. I would like to see passion on the commission for pressing the city to build multi and single- family homes that our new Americans can afford to BUY, not rent. If we want inclusion, we need economically strong diverse communities. Homeownership can provide this. 10. Homelessness. 11. Homeless, housing, 12. 1) Take existing HOT program currently implemented (Homeless Outreach Team) where 1 officer and a social worker goes and meets with a homeless person, interviews them and determines what services they may be in need of, then over time gets them that help or shelter. (Great program and start by the way!) 2) Open a Social Case File for each homeless person to keep track in a database and somehow track them either by fingerprint, take a picture of them, and or DNA sample in order to begin serious work at helping them get the help they need and track them like a medical doctor begins to keep track and records all symptoms and visits at a doctors office. 3) Social Workers analyze each case at the office and begin intelligently sorting through which person needs which services and what resources are available for them. 4) Regular weekly or monthly visit with homeless person with or without officer depending on each case. If can’t find homeless person then database of that case is shared among different cities who may eventually track the homeless person and continue to keep the social worker case file open and tracked for all to better serve and help each person no matter where they are homeless. 5) once identified and determine what services best serves the person than implementation begins. 6) once on-site help begins ie rehab for drug related, mental recovery, shelter only, etc then they have x number of days to be a part of program to recovery. 7) once recovery plan is in place … exit plan will be to transition person to permanent housing but with written legal agreement that person shall pay back all or s portion of the cost of permanent housing with work and services to be completed in the form of a job giving to them by the city or agency. 8) Jobs can be created for the person to be able to pay portion of their housing and cost of living while balance of cost can be subsidized by state and/or Federal welfare funds etc… 9) jobs can be simple but necessary jobs anyone can do like picking up garbage in their neighborhood, cleaning up the streets, washing down streets, painting graffiti, serving in any other capacity to help the city be clean, safer, and more enjoyable for everyone etc… Page 12 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 10) after so many years of housing and working for the city or agencies … person has right to move on and be free to be more productive part of society freeing up the space for the next social worker homeless person case! 13. The homeless , clean up streets all the vacant building keep clean. 14. Ensuring housing access and rent control, to make sure local populations, especially those of color, are not pushed out by the gentrification of neighborhoods. 15. I believe the city should focusing on providing safe affordable housing for low-income residents. Additionally, with the closure of Harborside Park, our homeless population has nowhere safe to go. I believe the city, with its growing financial surplus, should take the time to show that they are willing to step up and assist the homeless community. We should lead the county in our moral duty to take care of ALL of our citizens, not just those with the deepest pockets. 16. The Homeless population. 17. Housing opportunities for those on the streets. Advocates in public locations to refer this group to services, bathing locations, and mental health needs 18. I would like to see the Commission focus on changing the stigma residents have against homeless folks. Educating the public to understand homelessness is essential to fixing the homeless issue. If more people understand it and support efforts to actually help the homeless get off the streets, it will have a significant impact on our city. 19. a social worker or the city could provide depending on each individual case open: 1) Mental facility for rehab then job placement 2) substance and addiction rehab then job placement 3) shelter , job training , job placement 4) off site out of city placement into homeless shelters 5) One way ticket to Slab City plus voucher from city for food once get there 6) one way bus back to city who send them originally (if can be determine) by homeless person choice with voucher for food in that city 7) jail for those who don’t agree to any option who are violet and danger to society to be rehab and afterwards job training then job placement after release 8) do nothing continue to allow to live In city in tents in card board with food card froM city and tracking by social worker until city or homeless are ready for one of the options. 9) placement into private shelters / churches facility for faith based help, job training then job placement These are the options that the HOT team can provide as options to the homeless after their assessment of each individual on what is the best course of action to take and provide for every homeless person. East/West Side Issues, 1. Improve residential streets west of the 805. 2. Activities and meetings that include both west AND east Chula Vista 3. Neighborhood and urban development equity 4. Having all parks be safe for our children. Having tennis courts, basketball courts additionally available to children in all areas of Chula vista not just Eastlake 5. South-West Chula Vista community is run-down and not to par as East Chula Vista. Parks are run-down and dirty and not inviting for families with the homeless community saturating its use. South Library's building is run-down inside. Floors cracking, carpet and furniture dirty, visual interior landscaping areas are untended with overgrowth. The outside needs to be power washed and clean. The demographic for this area of Chula Vista is medium/lower income and primarily Hispanic but we deserve clean parks for our families and a library where we can bring Page 13 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda our children. Although the CV-SW District #4 is the smallest in geographical size we are equal in population to the much larger districts. Our City Council person, Andrea Cardenas has been the least visible representative in some years. She should engage with our community and see what the needs are and how best to address City Funding/services: 6. Not wasting money and putting more attention to the residents of Chula Vista. 7. Safety. Increase police department budget, staffing and pay. 8. Crime, Homelessness 9. Safety - not enough police and what little police we do have aren’t being allowed to use the tools they have to keep us safe. The drones, license plate readers and technology should be utilized to the fullest extent. I feel safer knowing those resources are available and being utilized. 10. Positive acknowledgement for our police & fire departments with the ways they reach out to our community! 11. Clean, safe parks. clean, safe hotels 12. Transparent and inclusive civic engagement, diverse City workforce particularly at the leadership level 13. Funding to Libraries and the Arts. 14. More Funding to Social Services. Trauma Inform Care. 15. drug traffic, police visibility 16. I would like them to focus on City planning and public transportation. 17. Stop creating commissions, put the money towards needed programs. Stop planning and analyzing and start doing! 18. Infrastructure especially the City Streets, potholes, widening streets. Cleaning up Chula Vista Business development 1. Investigate ways to connect the diversity of Broadway businesses with those on Third Avenue. Between the two areas there is something for everyone. 2. There are not enough high paying jobs in CV so most residents have to leave CV for work. Create equal opportunities for all residents to live AND work in CV. 3. I love all the updating that is occurring on 3rd Ave in the west side of Chula Vista. Its downtown area is so rich in history which is now being rediscovered. The east side or Eastlake in particular is made up of a lot of "new history". Most of our stories are of cow fields, one lane roads and the old Olympic Training Center. I would love to see a rediscovery of the East. Our mall is such a great place to shop but we can't seem to keep stores open. I believe the mall can become an area that can compliment the upcoming growth along the bay also Diversity: 1. Getting more diversity in commissions. 2. Have more representation in our street names of Latina/o or Hispanic outstanding citizens or members of our community. 3. Focus on (and celebrate) what our citizens and other residents have in common rather than on our differences (race, ethnicity, age, language, sexuality, gender identity, ability, etc.). 4. Racial and economic equity within the city. 5. Have more cultural events. 6. More Cultural Events Page 14 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 7. Community relations and diversity among City workers 8. Encuentros culturales públicos de las distintas comunidades que hacemos vida en la ciudad 9. Race relations in the community and with City of Chula Vista. 10. I really feel Chula Vista is very welcoming to diversity. I’m retired from our local school district and our population is one of the most diverse in the nation. Youth: 1. Dream Act & DACA 2. Investing in youth. Teen Centers that engage youth in expressing their interests and concerns. Tiny tot programs, more swimming pools, more skate/ basketball parks, computer labs, photography labs, art and media labs, volunteer projects, planting food forests throughout the city like secret gardens. Satellite meeting areas in all the districts so people can participate in civic meetings. Invite youth to learn about and participate in our local government- give them a voice at Council. 3. Outreach: 1. They should connect with the County Human Relations Commission and City of San Diego to explore a regional approach 2. Ways to get more community members to get involved with city instead of just complaining online about it. 3. here are many opportunities in the city, I do not believe we lack any. Thank you. Other: 1. Identifying and rejecting criminals and illegal persons from all countries; not just Hispanics. 2. Not sure about this one 3. When I go to a new doctor, I do not care about any factors that might check the box. I car about the training and to what school that doctor graduated from. HR should do the same when it comes to hiring a person. Look at education, experience ,training and past performance. 4. Disbanding 5. Descrimination against whites and straight men. 6. TV / Facebook and Nextdoor are the best way to get the word out, also the good old fashion SIGNS 7. Separation of church and state. 8. n/a Page 15 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda Question 2: Barriers to attending meetings Time:  Don't know when they are  Work Location:  Location (only west) and parking and time of meetings  My schedule varies on driving location  Other:  Failure of other attendees to observe adequate COVID precautions  Age - hearing, etc. Economic stability  I know better  Waste of time.  Visible communication when you meet.  Communication/wasn't aware this existed  Even though I have a Chula Vista address, I actually live in Bonita, but I would like to serve on Chula Vista commissions as it is the neighborhood that affects me the most. Page 16 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda Question 3: Housing/Urban Development: 1. Affordable housing. 2. high tax rate and affordable housing. 3. Affordable housing and true rent control that limits how much rent can be charged based on square footage and average income taxes n the community. 4. Affordable housing and inflation 5. Rent - business and home 6. Housing, 7. The issue that Chula Vista faces is the lack of improved urban development on the west side. Much of the focus and funding is consistently applied to the eastern side of the city to accommodate and attract new residents. From improved housing, greenspace, and schools, attention is paid to the eastern side while the western slowly deteriorates. The experience creates a divisional mindset within the city by residents. Equity and inclusion is key to help address such division, especially for residents that may experience financial disparities in the southwestern portion of Chula Vista. 8. The cost of rent, utilities and food and better paying jobs. 9. Overdevelopment 10. Housing, 11. Indigencia (poverty) 12. Quality of life. Affordable housing 13. Housing 14. Gentrification. The arrival of wealthy investment groups and landlords with nothing better to do has been disastrous for the low-income residents of our city. Everywhere I look I see "luxury" apartments popping up left and right. We are slowly pushing people out of the city with the lack of any affordable housing 15. Gentrification and the Short-Term Rental explosion in the normally affordable areas of CV are causing a wave of a housing crisis that has yet to be felt. Homeless/Drug Issues 16. Crime and Homelessness 17. Homeless 18. Homelessness 19. Homelessness 20. Money allocated for Homeless issues that is NOT helping resolve the problem. I see grant money, money contributions, and money from the government being offered to help resolve the homeless problem, yet I am seeing more & more homeless on our streets. Is the money filling someone's pocket and not going where is should be going? 21. Gang and narcotic activity throughout the city 22. Increase homeless presence 23. Homelessness and drugs 24. Unsheltered community 25. Las Drogas 26. Homelessness and if we don't do something soon we will end up like Downtown San Diego 27. Drugs. Homelessness Page 17 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 28. Obviously the homelessness effects everyone. We are not a unique community. While new ideas and strategies are tried, how bout we stop blaming and all work together. Use our energy towards workable solutions 29. Crime. Homelessness. 30. i SEEN LOTS OF HOMELESS 31. Homelessness 32. Large amount of homeless 33. and homelessness crisis. 34. The Homeless population 35. Homelessness. 36. Homeless in parks. 37. Homelessness and safety. Diversity 38. Chula Vista is very good at embracing cultural and ethnic diversity. 39. City leadership from the executive and senior manager level is dominated with homogeneous white leaders all appointed because of like mindedness and mirroring. Those employees of color have been passed up for positions of leadership and left feeling devalued. Leadership that is reflective of the community they serve is needed to better identify and connect. Decisions on policies and programs will be more reflective of the values and understanding of the needs of the community. This is particularly important in the City Managers Office and in more service oriented departments such as Recreation, Communications, Housing, Human Resources, and Public Safety. Eastside/Westside: 40. Disparity in city services 41. A failure to include east Chula Vista in programs and meetings and facilities 42. Protected class... It seems that some group of people have more right than others. At the end tax payers allow the city to operate. Residents want a safe city. I moved from city of San Diego in 2008 because the city was not safe for my kids. There are neighbors paying over $35,000 a year in property taxes and all deserve a safe city. 43. Regarding diversity it would be nice to see more events that encourage community participation. The city shows its support for diversity through Facebook posts but that’s really all I have seen. 44. Traffic and transportation. I believe, the divide between East and West only exacerbates any exclusion the HRC is trying to remove. It does not help than there isn’t enough public transport connecting the two. Perhaps streetcars, if getting a trolley line would be too costly. 45. Economy, disparity between quality of life for West Chula Vista and east Chula Vista. More needs to be done to ensure that as the City grows, it takes care of its lower socioeconomic families on the West side of the City. Chula Vista has become more unaffordable to live. Corporate Development 46. Not enough quality businesses such as restaurants, quality food restaurants and more grocery stores. 47. Economic balance and sustainability. 48. CV does not attract any large corporations or companies thus there is a lack of high paying jobs in CV. Residents have to commute up and down the 5, 805, and 125 every morning/evening to their jobs outside CV. 49. economic development Page 18 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 50. Supporting small businesses 51. Commerce and restaurants created to meet the demands and needs of the community 52. I believe our most pressing issue is lack of decent paying jobs, and the infrastructure to support our growing population. The Sears property is a perfect example, it is my understanding more apartments are going to be built on this property. We need to expand the healthcare availability for the residents not just of Chula Vista, but all of the South Bay communities. The city should be talking with Scripps about expanding the hospital on to the Sears property. This would mean good paying jobs for doctors, nurses, and support staff and South Bay residents wouldn’t have to drive to San Diego or La Jolla for decent healthcare. My family has personally been transported via ambulance to a hospital out of Chula Vista several times because there are no beds available in any Chula Vista hospital. At the very least the Sears property should become a major retailer, similar to a Super Target. The current mayor and city council have added more apartments, but no more grocery stores, hospital beds or jobs. If we want people to be able to live in the community they work in, then we need decent jobs. Chula Vista City Management 53. The budget 54. Elected leaders in Chula Vista do not let the City Manager manage. They create policies and programs that are haphazard and disconnected. If there is a problem, instead of managing the problem, the city creates an ordinance. Many times there are no resources to enforce what the council adopts. The Council and Mayor should let their professional staff run the city and they should focus on governing. Our lack of leadership resulted in "This is Chula" and a trash debacle that was the laughingstock of the county. 55. Infrastructure, City streets need paving, trees are over grown, graffiti, widening streets. Cleaning up Chula Vista 56. Not enough staffing Police 57. Crime and not enough police. The police are great but there are not enough of them. Hire more, pay them more, and show them appreciation. 58. Safety and not enough police, not enough resources. 2. Homeless 3. Overcrowding 59. Illegal immigration. 60. las Drogas 61. Safety and lack of Police personnel. Our per capita ratio is one of the lowest. As this city keeps expended, we need to allocate funds for more officers either through Mello Roose or special assessments. 62. CRIME KEEP IT DOWN! And enforce our laws 63. One particular observation is a low police presence. The east side has grown so much that I believe investing in a sub-station would be a great asset to the community. Traffic/Road Maintenence 64. Lack of adequate traffic rule enforcement for vehicles and bicyclists. 65. Traffic on major roads. Traffic around schools. 66. In general traffic. 67. road maintenance Page 19 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 68. Exceso de velocidad (speeding) y poco limpieza de la Avenida Broadway (and dirty streets, especially Broadway) 69. Traffic and transportation. I believe, the divide between East and West only exacerbates any exclusion the HRC is trying to remove. It does not help than there isn’t enough public transport connecting the two. Perhaps streetcars, if getting a trolley line would be too costly. 70. I am new to the city, here I notice the driving traffic, 71. Cleanliness. 72. Traffic bottlenecks in several areas that address congestion, whether it be a concert, school/college activity or easy accessibility throughout the city to commute to work. Other: 73. Voting election integrity. Konnech has shown that the ccp have had access to servers within the election system time to over haul it. 74. Authoritarian right wing nut jobs. 75. Current political climate is combative, not solution based, very immature and causing people to disengage and feel like nothing is going to change 76. The long run of the effects of Covid on society in general, people are feeling anxious about health, wages, housing, feeling food insecurities. The local community has grief from the loss of lives from being essential low paid workers during the height of the outbreak. Page 20 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda Question 4: Affordability 1. I can afford to live here, 2. An ideal Chula Vista would like more affordable housing for families. I'm not talking about Condos or Apartments for rent. I mean real single home family houses that give them actual land to own. 3. less dense housing. More infrastructure to support the current overcrowding. 4. \truly affordable housing based on data of not more than 1/3 of the average monthly income of the citizens living in the community. Realize the importance of a livable wage as a right 5. Affordable for everybody no matter your income 6. One with limited growth. It seems that our city mayor and former mayors are hungry for more property taxes and have been pushing for building more and more houses and apartments all while hiding behind the motto, "Affordable Housing" but if people really want affordable houses, Arizona and Texas and I'm sure New Mexico have house half the price of San Diego County. Let the market dictate where people buy a home and let not government influence home prices 7. take the lead in developing first-time home buyer opportunities. Chula Vista is building plenty of rental units for $3k to $4k/month. Be a leader in building small condos so new buyers can stay in Chula Vista. If we want to diversify the city, we can't create housing that traps owners into paying rent for the rest of their lives. The working poor and middle class can build wealth if they can own a small property. Chula Vista and California forgot about this as we create more burdens and expenses on new development. Read this, please. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/25/upshot/starter-home-prices.html 8. entire city would have improved housing 9. Affordable housing and 10. Affordable housing, 11. con viviendas accesibles (accessible housing) 12. STOP the building for a start. 13. and more affordable housing with schools that are great in all areas of the City. 14. Affordable housing with better flow of traffic. 15. Chula Vista is a city rich with culture and the blooming buds of prosperity. In order to further the growth and life of our city, we need to lift up those that are lower, not raise the ceiling for those that are richer. Coming together as a community and caring for our brothers and sisters that are less fortunate, , providing affordable housing solutions, and creating more community hubs like the Otay Ranch Town Center are key in integrating all of our city into a beautiful, thriving, interconnected community. Homelessness 16. Free of homeless Less tents and drugs on the streets. Less cars stolen / broken into. 17. A Minimal homeless people. We need to stop enabling the homeless population. With the bay front revitalization coming the homeless will take over unless they are driven out while it is still manageable. We need to stop making it easy for them to remain and push them out or into doing community service work in exchange the amenities we are currently giving them for free. 18. A place without homelessness. Page 21 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 19. fewer homeless on the streets, 20. No homeless 21. el control de indigentes. (control of homeless) 22. The homeless have access to food, showers. 23. and plenty of resources for those seeking assistance for homelessness or drug abuse. 24. less homelessness, 25. Address the homeless problem 26. SOLVE THE HOMELESSNESS PROBLEM Police 1. second police station on the east side that is full staffed. 2. safeguard for safety and prosperity. If a city has to spend about half of their budget on just the police force and still have crime and racist policies in tact after all these years. No wonder citizens have no pride in living in Chula Vista or see a future for threat children other than far away from here. 3. full library and police station in the east half of the city. 4. Low crime 5. low crime rate 6. creating a police force that uses preventative actions instead of reactivating tactics— 7. police visibility around the homeless and drug traffic 8. more police, more fire personnel 9. New Substation police dept in East Chula Vista 10. Our resident population has grown exponentially so safety is a big issue. 11. and I feel safe from criminals, the police, and CBP. 12. Free from criminals. Economic Sustainability within Chula Vista 13. can find work here, 14. Fewer bars and "craft beer" and cannabis businesses 15. A place where once our children graduated, they could find suitable work in our city 16. Facilitate new business, industrial and residential growth, without destroying the small town feel to "Old Chula Vista". Insist that renewal projects have retained that western feel. 17. I would like to see us as a city that has good jobs within CV so our residents don't have to commute up and down the 5, 805, and 125 every morning and evening. The City needs to do a better job of attracting corporations and companies to CV which in turn bring higher paying jobs. 18. good jobs in town. 19. jobs for residents 20. a place where as a family, we can go to an event on the weekend. Less Traffic/More Open Spaces 21. Less traffic congestion, 22. Beautiful parks, excellent schools, engaged community members who take pride in their city. Safe. Secure. Master planned as it was supposed to be. 23. Clean, safe parks for children to play at without worry of narcotic exposure, gang activity or violence 24. Better transportation options for both sides of the city - using smaller buses and vans to cover more areas Page 22 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda 25. Abundance of green space 26. Furthermore, main roads (L St., H St., Orange Ave., etc) would not be as congested going to or coming from the eastern side of the city. 27. Plenty of open space along the bayfront & in the Otay Lakes area. 28. Demand more on-site parking of developers. The amount of on-street parking we have is very dangerous to drivers and pedestrians. 29. dog parks 30. parques seguros,más áreas verdes (safe parks, more green areas) 31. All inclusive for our seniors, disabled adults and children, sidewalks in all of Chula Vista. Acceptable access to tennis courts, basketball courts in ALL areas of Chula Vista 32. creating better and better public transportation options 33. If you were dropped anywhere in the City you would see the same beautiful park, clean streets, families walking their dogs and enjoying the day with their families 34. More green space/open space in South West Chula Vista. 35. A community that respects its natural resources such as open spaces for the community to enjoy without competing with large venture capitalist creating more concrete spaces (the bay front) and charging the citizens for parking to support local businesses. Education/Development 36. A forward thinking city that sees the future of its citizens by promoting education, 37. A place where our children could attend a four-year university (like a UC or CSU) in Chula Vista. 38. A balanced community that was planned to provide such an atmosphere, instead of one that only looks at short term fixes like rezoning industrial land to create more residential sprawl. 39. Bring in a University, develop the bayfront, and 40. Improved Schools 41. more libraries 42. My ideal Chula Vista would include mor walkable, community centers. The Sears building remains abandoned and it’d be nice to convert to a community center, if possible. I’d also like to see the gaps between East and West be developed into walkable neighborhoods, similar to East Palomar between La Media and Heritage rd. We have enough Suburbs. I understand it’s difficult to convert previously built areas but that shouldn’t stop us from developing new ones with that in mind. I believe walkable neighborhoods, alone, carry a lot of inclusion and sense of community. 43. And enough with the parks, what we need are more FREE Gym's and Swimming Pools for locals who are not able to pay Gym Fees, so that ALL Chula Vista people can work out and go for a swim without wondering how to pay for it. Yes, there are many Community Pools BUT can only be used by Residents, with is a small fraction of the CV population. At the moment if a person just wants to go for a swim there is only one place in the whole of Chula Vista and THEN you have to make an appointment to go have a swim? Wrong 44. If there were other after school opportunities that catered to interests of kids of this generation (ie. Many of them enjoy social media, but most after school activities cater towards sports and whatnot, so rather than having after school activities, they may be finding things to do that garner interest in social media such as graffiti) 45. less kids causing trouble, places for kids to go so they can stay out of trouble. 46. A major healthcare facility built on the Sears property. The bay front to become a place where families can celebrate weddings, and our high school students can have their proms. Decent restaurants on Third Ave, that are more than just breweries. Page 23 of 24 City of Chula Vista Human Relations Commission March 23, 2023 Agenda New Business Attraction 47. More high end department store 48. Cool. A place that other people in the city will come visit. 49. A safe community with diverse restaurants, and businesses. 50. Furthermore, there would be more grocers and restaurants that offer healthier food options to help combat food insecurity and health disparities. Grocers would be situated in closer proximity to aid residents that must rely on public transportation when running errands. 51. Commercial building and commerce areas would be clean, easily accessibly and available. 52. Diverse restaurants throughout the City. 53. More decent grocery stores, especially on the west side. Diversity 54. Strong and welcoming community 55. Chula VIsta is great already. Actually, I don't think we need a Human Relations Commission. 56. More accessible 57. Lastly, more cultural events and possibly art exhibits would be presented to celebrate the diverse ethnic communities in our city. 58. To be able to find a reflection of myself (e.g. my values, culture) in the policies, programs, services, facilities and fabric of the community I live in. Authentic connectedness with those that serve me and in the community 59. I am a place that welcomes and honors diversity and is scantily informed, using the best current methods to serve its citizens 60. Destigmatize 805 divide. West side and East side events more inclusive, welcoming and advertised. 61. Community events that engage our diverse population. 62. More international/cultural events throughout the city. Cleanliness: 63. Great smooth streets no potholes 64. Safe and Clean. 65. well maintained roads, 66. limpia (clean) 67. Ideal is a stretch, cleaner Broadway and Main Street 68. Cleaned up on both sides of I5, I805 69. Clean streets and neighborhoods, 70. Clean, 71. Clean. Other: 72. Voter ID legal imagination no forced medical Healthcare and leave our kids alone 73. Looks fine the way it is. You've done a good job. 74. Continue in its direction with John MCCann as Mayor and what he represents and has done for District 1 for all of Chula Vista as much as possible 75. As a resident, I feel we already live in a beautiful community. The biggest growth has already occurred and now we need to focus on fine tuning what we have.
