CALL TO ACTION
WE STILL NEED YOUR HELP!

In order to permanently protect the south end of our neighborhood from any future unhoused encampments, our neighborhood has assisted the Preuss Station United States Post Office at 1270 S. Alfred St. in submitting documentation required to extend 41.18 Ordinance enforcement to it. What this means is that within a 500-foot radius of the post office property, no encampments can be set up.
With assistance from our City Council member Paul Koretz’s field staff, a Resolution has been introduced to City Council that would extend 41.18 protection to a list of locations , including our post office. The final vote on it will take place on December 8, 2022.
WE NEED YOUR EMAIL COMMENT IN SUPPORT ASAP!!
The resolution to include the Post Office under 41.18 consideration is pending City Council approval on 12/8/2022. Given the unprecedented physical assaults, arson, bike chop shop, and other criminal activity plaguing our area since the encampment appeared on July 4, 2002, there is plenty of justification for granting this protection.
The community has fewer than 30 days to include public comment to the record. This is our community’s opportunity to weigh in on the pressing issue to ensure this resolution is considered and passed. This is open to ALL public who wish to provide comment on this situation.

A brief comment urging the City Council to vote YES is all that is needed.

Emphasize the sense of personal danger you felt, or any incident that you experienced or know about.
All comments must be submitted by 12/7/2022.
