delivered to your inbox San Jose has begun temporarily banning RVs in designated areas across the city this week Under a $3.3 million pilot program, Oversized and Lived-In Vehicle Enforcement (OLIVE), the city has chosen 30 temporary tow-away zones to clear RVs for street sweeping and cleanup throughout this year It will establish a new temporary tow-away zone every week Chynoweth Avenue is the first site that will temporarily ban RVs where there are 19 RVs and lived-in vehicles Next week will be Boynton Avenue from Underwood Drive to Blackford Avenue where approximately 55 vehicles are parked “The neighbors and small business owners and people coming to the parks in these areas deserve some relief,” San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan said at the Thursday news conference held at Chynoweth Park the city will chose up to 10 sites where RVs and lived-in vehicles will be permanently banned individuals forced to move have no options Those who have inoperable vehicles are at risk of getting towed once the city begins enforcing the temporary ban who lives in an RV parked on Chynoweth Avenue  “Now we’re gonna go … find (another) place to park.” The Berryessa safe parking site will be able to hold up to 85 vehicles but people living in their RVs are worried there won’t be enough room for all of them once the city begins towing There are an estimated 1,000 lived-in vehicles throughout the city “It is really deplorable when our city is abating RV unhoused folks to move with no place to go,” homeless advocate Gail Osmer told San José Spotlight from one place to another and get kicked out of where they are Each (council district) should have a safe RV site.” who lives across from Chynoweth Park and near the RV encampment I’m really pleased to see this happening.” Contact Joyce Chu

Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_2" ).setAttribute( "value" This seems like a no brainer; if you want to be treated like a neighbor and being a drunken jerk is going to anger your “neighbors.” I’m out of empathy I think they just tow all these vehicles to Columbus Park What I do appreciate about this program is the acknowledgement we have a really big issues w/ RVs many inoperable and a public health hazard concentrated in certain districts within the City D5 and D7 make up over 20 of the 30 sites on this roster – and with upwards of 1,000 or so RVs this is a small fraction of the larger issue supportive/interim housing funneled mostly into a few districts while other more affluent areas remain buffered…and that is intentional That is a problem from a civil rights perspective in my view what concerns me about this program is it’s basically a SJ Beautify RV program There is no permanent ban – so people will just return we continue the cyclical multi-million dollar cleaning service that doesn’t address any root causes We spend millions this year – then in another year or two – we rinse and repeat than Oakland/SF – a recent HUD report showed that our County has the most homelessness tucked into the creeks and on the Guadalupe Trail Or living in RV communities scattered throughout the City I believe we need to build shelter to scale and by subpopulation – while demanding the County invest in behavioral health resources more than $1M supportive apartments and create PERMANENT bans on illegal camps and RVs root cause solutions – starting with shelter and treatment Why not convert the jails we are releasing people from into inpatient rehab/mental health treatment centers Many people need to literally be forced off the street and into care – we will see less vulnerable die So thank you City for acknowledging the scope of the issue – but let’s move toward permanent solutions that don’t result in us going right back to where we started It is good to finally see some action and we need to support our mayor’s plan with these realistic programs Housing First has failed and was never financially feasible We now need every district to contribute by providing their fair share of appropriate land/areas for low-cost shelter solutions including simple shelters safe parking sites and sanctioned encampments This will at least quickly give these people basic assistance including addiction and mental health services and a little hope to get their lives back It is inhumane to leave them living randomly everywhere any longer and unfair to everyone else “We now need every district to contribute by providing their fair share of appropriate land/areas for low-cost shelter solutions including simple shelters safe parking sites and sanctioned encampments.” San Jose is one of the most expensive cities in the US The vast majority of these homeless people will *never* be able to afford to live here they should be transported to another part of the state where there’s at least some chance they can make it on their own How about we return to the basics of the 72 hour rule and allow citizens to report and city staff to enforce As far as I can tell we haven’t had any good ideas or implemented any good new laws or policies for at least the last 20 years So let’s just erase everthing we’ve implemented since the 90’s and restart with those policies and hope it makes San Jose better for everyone But in the criteria for making a street eligible for removal of RV’s they have to include pathways to public transportation I live next to a street (Fehren Ave in district 7) that is the only or most direct path to get to the train stop That means you either walk right next to the RV’s or on the road It’s a especially hard choice in the morning I think we should take away our lower income classes homes Then sit and ponder why crime is on a rise again why there are all of a sudden a lot more tents on the way home to look at Move trash to get around when we take out evening walks All of a sudden you will be looking at a Columbus park tent encampment situation everywhere you remove these rvs That sounds like a lot more fun than the big boxes they live in now At least they are contained inside a rv what is inside isn’t your problem right now but it will be when these people are on the street comm on idiots If there are 800 ugly rvs in the city and looking at them is the issue why don’t 800 of the philanthropists each get one rv and give it to a homeless person then it won’t be so he so bad to look at there’s a real solution why not ?better than having them steal your identity to buy themselves one once you take their current home You must be logged in to post a comment San José Spotlight is an award-winning nonprofit

The founders attributed part of their success to their business classes when Off The Ave opened on Feb where selected based on a survey for marketing research assignments for founder Erin Harrington The cafe is open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m A long overdue agreement between San Jose and Santa Clara County’s largest water agency to build housing for homeless residents has been greenlit and is slated to break ground next month where dozens of people are camped along the Guadalupe River I can’t believe it,” District 9 Councilmember Pam Foley “I’m just so pleased that we’re going to be able to move the unhoused out of the creek and into these units and I can’t wait for that to occur.” The overall time from when the process started to completion will be about three years, a timeline Valley Water Director Jim Beall said has been too slow the higher it’s going to cost,” Beall told San José Spotlight “Now that we got this template of how we agree on things why don’t we just do some other ones the Valley Water board directed the agency’s employees to look for ways to address homeless people living on agency land The water agency decided to partner with San Jose to come up with a plan for its Cherry Avenue property and in June 2023 the city council approved the site for temporary housing with the intention to move those living at the Cherry Avenue encampment into the future tiny homes A further work plan will be developed to ensure the area remains free of trash The construction of the site comes at a time when homeless people are being banned from camping on Valley Water-owned land and could face up to $500 fines for doing so Valley Water will enact the policy starting Jan The people encamped at the proposed tiny home site will be temporarily relocated during construction and will be given priority placement once the site is ready to open San Jose Housing Director Erik Solivan said at the council meeting housing department spokesperson Jeff Scott deferred to Valley Water Keller told San José Spotlight that while the water agency will be conducting sweeps in early January the city is responsible to provide homeless people with relocation options the city is responsible for shelter intake and keeping track of the homeless people who have priority placement into the tiny home site after construction is complete Scott did not provide details on how the city intends to keep track of the homeless people during the temporary relocation period or whether any city workers will be present when Valley Water begins the sweeps The project costs $18.3 million and will be funded with about $9 million from the state and $7 million from Measure E a property transfer tax approved by city voters in 2020 The city also received about $2.4 million in philanthropic donations DignityMoves is the developer and will receive up to $15 million to design and construct the site private bathrooms and an outdoor picnic area security and other services to help people transition into permanent housing The city has not chosen who will be the service provider it will cost about $5 million annually to operate The city currently has approximately 500 beds across its six tiny home sites “I think it’s a great example of the two agencies working together to help solve the homeless crisis,” Todd Langton executive director of Agape Silicon Valley “It’s still way too little and hopefully not too late We need to cut the red tape between the agencies and make this happen sooner and quicker and bigger.” Contact Joyce Chu at [email protected] or @joyce_speaks on X It must be nice for all of these high paid folks at the various government funded entities who live in communities not as impacted by the homeless mental illness and addiction crisis we see in D3 sidewalks and trails don’t have the public health and safety issues we see in the lesser resourced areas 3 out of the 4 parks near my home are 3rd world countries (St James Roosevelt and Columbus Parks) – even having outbreaks of bacterial infections – and many crime issues Building less than 200 more “tiny homes” at an absolute premium addresses On top of that – for those who aren’t suffering from mental illness and addiction and are just homeless because they are poor – it was in the 30s last night People can’t wait for these entities to get their acts together – and legal advocacy agencies like Law Foundation are bank rolled by the City/County – but really they should sue these public entities for their inaction and those impacts on people and communities We saw this happen in NYC for a right to shelter – and some CA communities have taken legal action recently Here is information from that lawsuit below and I think more cities like San Jose Oakland and SF should be forced via legal action to do their jobs “BREAKING: LA Sued for Failing to Control Homeless Encampments the American Freedom Law Center (AFLC) filed a class action federal complaint in the U.S District Court for the Central District of California alleging that the City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Police Department have both allowed and created conditions effectively taking private property in violation of the Takings Clause of the U.S Constitution and for creating public nuisances The thrust of the claims on behalf of AFLC’s client is that the City and police department have failed to control homelessness and that the homeless encampments occupying his property and surrounding properties have caused significant property damage and financial loss.” This is just Housing First lite and is not a financially feasible solution We need to help the most people for the least amount of (taxpayer) money This would be barrack type structures with bunk-beds (simple shelters) and campgrounds spaces with tents (sanctioned encampments) It definitely must include addiction and mental health care The goal must always be to lift people out of homelessness The tiny home village (Casitas de Esperanza) at the downtown County property is all undocumented immigrants I “hope” this new location will at least be used for some of the local unhoused that are currently living on our streets It’s time for our leadership to be honest with us This homeless situation has been going on for too long It’s time to utilize the National Guard to set up temporary emergency shelters at the fairgrounds unused google village land and other appropriate locations in every district to finally end this tragic cycle It is inhumane to leave people living on the streets and unfair to everyone else “I’m just so pleased that we’re going to be able to move the unhoused out of the creek and into these units and I can’t wait for that to occur.”” but it seems to me there is zero correlation between building tiny homes and removing homeless people from the creek We’ll just have a largely vacant set of expensive to buy and ineffective to operate tiny homes next to the homeless encampment that is currently along the creek Why would we expect anything to change for the homeless population currently occupying the banks of the creek right down the street on Cherry and Branham They have been nothing but a nuisance and in some instances a danger to the surrounding neighborhood Certainly they have caused an uptick in property crime as the Safeway and Walmart across the street has taken to locking up many items behind plexiglass While they prefer the light exiting Walmart/Best buy as a prime panhandling location they also frequent the NB 85 exit onto Almaden across the street as well as the Almaden/85 SB exit next to Costco There was one instance where my wife was picking up our kids from Pioneer HS where a homeless man sat on the Island/Divider with a machete ashing his cigarette on it while sitting on a bucket and rambling incoherently to himself “Well is he attacking anyone with it WE HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO HOUSE THESE PEOPLE You solve this issue by making rock bottom not so soft The people here do not want to be housed Who is stopping housed people from drinking Ever see a frat house or a society holiday party and commit wage fraud among other harms to society So we’re going to make it easier for the ones currently doing this in the creek Robertsville (this area of D9) has already paid the toll on this for 24 years I think it’s only fair we put it next to your neighborhood since we’re trying to be equitable here Where is the $5M per year going to come from or $3,125 per month would go much further in providing a simple rental subsidy – $1,500/mo subsidy for 278 people to be exact This is why this problem will never be “solved” The people in charge of solving it only want to extend the tax-payer funded gravy train forever

to occupy the rest of the lot But I guess we need to build more ugly to keep the Wieners happy I don’t think these are ugly–they look pretty similar to the buildings around them “five will be designated as affordable for households” At least the majority of the ugly small units will be market rate ++ These look perfectly nice – the ugly part is the existing billboard Too bad they decided to keep that instead of putting more homes there I love that Billboard >:( I audibly went “YAY” when I read that the billboard will remain Perfectly summarizing the state of housing development in the Bay Area with a single comment What a perfect example of how broken the housing system is here All that land given up for a billboard and its view corridor And only 3 stories next to a major freeway and all those bus lines that also link to the Caltrain station just a little further south Not to mention great access to job centers from downtown SF (maybe again someday) Bayview and down to Oyster Point and the Peninsula Not to mention more people to support all the struggling Mom & Pop businesses on SBA this is a very skinny parcel – really just a remnant left over after 101 was built in the 1950s I honestly don’t know how stable that slope is between the site and the freeway Your lungs would be coated with soot in a week I hope whoever lives there invests in some really good HVAC filters

Mercy Housing is hoping to emulate their success with Tahanan a figure most affordable construction projects in San Francisco exceed Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony earlier this year Mercy Housing president Doug Shoemaker said “Our success with modular housing at Tahanan showed that San Francisco absolutely can build affordable housing quickly and cost-effectively… now we’re bringing many of those innovative cost-saving efforts to site-built housing.” The six-story structure is expected to create 145 units of affordable housing for ‘seniors experiencing or at risk of homelessness,’ as per the city Apartments will be priced for households earning no more than 50% of the area’s median income with the exact rents to be no more than 30% of income Residential amenities

Hopefully it inspires some more building and commercial activity nearby Why would at-risk senior development spawn “commercial activity” exactly Another hideous condo highrise blotting out the sun so the people who actually live around it never have to see those things again Making SF “affordable” by making it ugly we’re aiming to build the Great Wall of China on every street and make sure it’s so high you’ll never experience the sun NIMBYs are amazingly selfish and short-sighted All the 80-IQ NIMBYs make the same dumb comment Why not go back to 1860 when there were almost no buildings the people who live IN the building get great views out of their windows feels like both this and the neighboring building could be a few stories taller Totally ruins the property value of surrounding

more retail activity to the heart of downtown Oliver Properties has plans to develop roughly 9,000 square feet of the former Copia Restaurant & Wine Garden at 1122 Washington Ave The firm had acquired the property earlier in the year and had been working on the right fit for the space “The retail space as a former restaurant ran all the way through from front to back of the entire building,” he said the building doesn’t go all the way to the alley Those details meant an attraction centered around food and beverage would be a good fit But the size could be challenging for a single tenant “And there’s already quite a few sit-down restaurants along the way.” could help to diversify the risk for an individual establishment and offer quick-serve food options that cater to lunch The developer is in talks with potential tenants but declined to share more specifics since no deals are finalized yet The food hall concept is part of about 35,000 square feet of retail space Oliver Properties owns which focuses on Washington Avenue and the immediate surrounding streets includes about 400 apartments in nearby buildings and a few surface parking lots The developer has an eye toward developing a more unified retail experience along one of the more prominent business corridors downtown Part of that has included purchasing the ground floor retail space in different buildings and not necessarily the apartments above “As [Washington Avenue] faced its challenges it had a fractionalized ownership,” he said ‘How do I optimize my revenue in this one space?’” That meant there wasn’t much intentionality in terms of which retail tenants should open But with the cohesive ownership he is trying to create Oliver said more attention can be paid to how potential tenants interact with each other and drive foot traffic “It’s an established retail strategy that you need anchor tenancy Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker By: 5:15 am on April 2 the nation’s first Jewish urban
