PARKING PERMIT PROGRAM - CAPISTRANO VILLAS (570.70)
Nativo Lopez expressed appreciation to the City Council and City Manager for meeting with representatives of
the Capistrano Villas twice this week to discuss the residents' concerns with the recently adopted parking permit
program at the Villas. He requested that Council Resolution No. 94-1-18-4 be rescinded or amended to address
the concerns of all residents at the Villas. He expressed concerns that no Spanish-speaking person discussed the
proposed Resolution with the Capistrano Villas residents prior to its adoption, the program is discriminatory, the
scope of the program is overly broad, garage uses permitted in the Resolution are too restrictive, fees for guest
parking permits are too costly, and numerous citations have been issued, which he stated would be appealed.
Sylvia Stanley, Capistrano Villas resident, felt the program violated residents' civil rights and stated she had
obtained 50 signatures on a petition in opposition to the program. She felt that the City was negligent and
irresponsible in its introduction and implementation of the program and disregarded the needs of the community,
which resulted in the harassment of certain individuals at the Villas.
Marcos Casteiieda spoke in opposition to the vehicle registration verification, permit fees, and insurance
verification required by the program. Dolores Gonzales, Capistrano Villas No. 3, stated she had obtained 175
signatures on a petition opposing the parking permit program and the $25 fee required for guest parking. Jaime
Jimenez, Capistrano Villas No. 3, stated he had obtained signatures on a petition opposing the program and noted
that residents impacted by this program cannot afford the fees required, particularly with the higher association
fees imposed on the Villas residents. He stated that the residents were not made aware of the program prior to
' its adoption. Ascension Sanchez, Capistrano Villas No. 1, stated he represented 125 individuals who had signed
a petition in opposition to the program. He felt that persons implementing the program had been rude to

She advised that the City had a window of opportunity to address this issue with the recently reorganized
Housing and Urban Development wanting to implement projects, and the "use -it -or -lose -it" funding from
Assembly Bill 1290, which has placed a greater emphasis on performance. She urged that the City's Housing
Specialist position not be eliminated with the budget cuts to be made. She distributed copies of a statement from

5. HOUSING DEVELOPMENT (430.30)
