We are dealing with discoloration and odor issues in Clovis that wel have never experienced in any other local water district (Fresno or Fresno Irrigation district). What solutions do you have to address these long standing water quality issues? What is the city doing to address the mosquito infestation in neighborhoods with mandated yard drains? This was asked last year and there have been zero solutions brought forth. The minimal, small community green spaces and excuses for' "parks" in Clovis cannot even be utilized due to the amount of Inr regard to green spaces and' "parks", this city can do al lot better. Loma Vista's park and theatre is extremely underwnelming. The small community "parks" are sometimes nothing more than a small patch of weeds and two trees. Many other municipalities have done a much better job with city planning inr regard to green spaces and walking trails. The city of Clovis should explore some other cities in  mosquitos int these areas, let alone private backyards.  California to see what a deplorable job they are doing.

It was measured by not how many firefighters or Police there were but by its openness uncluttered small town atmosphere. It has been ruined by out of control growth un precedented population increases and poor planning. Traffic has become a nightmare. Lennar Development has bought up every available piece of land in Clovis and some outlying areas. Homeless is creepingi in andi int the next 5-10y years Clovis will bej just another overcrowded dump. Like the bay area or southern California. Lennar will continue to march forward with mass communities then leave the area  with fat pockets and the residents of Clovis livingi in a stressed out environment.

The City receives zerot funds to address homelessness from the State of California or federalg government and has to rely on local funds. These local funds have been stretched to the breaking point. While the expenditure of Measure Y resources would bea City Council decision ifiti is passed, Measure Y could allow for homelessness to be addressed from several 1) It could allow the Clovis Police and Fire Departments to have the staff to engage with unhoused individuals to improve their situation. The goal beingt to get the care needed for the unhoused person to become healthy and productive and not diminishing other residents access to businesses or public amenities. Additional funds could also allow the departments to proactively reach out to those unhoused individuals needing mental health assistance with 2). It could allow the city toi invest further in affordable housing projects that offer reduced rent options for eligible families/indviduals so that homelessness can be avoided or there are feasible options for someone to move to from living on the: streets. Recent examples of housing units focused on this in clovis include Solvita Commons and Butterfly 3)Itcould allow the City to support our partners on this issue in a more significant way. This includes the Marjaree Mason Center, Habitat for Humanity of Fresno County, Better Opportunity! Builders, Self-Help Enterprises, Affordable Housing Development Corporation, and many others.
