--Richmond Pension Tax is a item that is now and has been hurting all retired /fixed income seniors for many many years--- How can your team review this to at least make amends for seniors/fixed income retirees to get this waved --removed from their property tax bill---
Why can't you or your team place this on a ballot to have such amended/removed for seniors. Or is this something that I can gather enough signatures and place on the ballot --

The city could be liable for fire damage to private property due to neglect.

Fairmede Park is larger and connected to the Elementary School, Compared to Hilltop Green Park

The City of Richmond should promote and invest heavily in worker-owned cooperative enterprises. Given the tremendous failings of capitalism - the growing gap between the economic classes, the concentration of nearly all the country's wealth to the top 1%, people working harder yet receiving less, the lagging minimum wage when adjusted for inflation, unemployment statistics reported dishonestly - we need a better way. Workers that own their businesses would never vote to hand over the profits to a small number of board members. They would never deny themselves paid leave, or choose to send their jobs oversees, or any of the myriad, ridiculous decisions that put profits over people. I could write an entire book. Imagine a typical fast food worker. Whether there is a line out the door waiting for food, or a completely empty restaurant, they get the same miserable wage. What's the incentive? Shouldn't a worker be happy to have customers? Not when they never see a penny of the profits.

Restoring & Creating Opportunities for Involvement in the sport of Wrestling
Champion for the privileges & opportunities of wrestlers of the Richmond California area to be restored. In doing so, facilitating families of this worthy Community into the sport. Help build a foundation for a self-sustaining, functional, prosperous wrestling Institution in the Greater Richmond CA Area. Work to facilitate the self perpetuation of the sport. The sport of wrestling makes great men & women of all ages, shapes, size, ethnicity, & wealth. My current goal is to boost community awareness to the disposition of the sport in the Richmond Ca Area, as well as to have a healthy wrestling program be fully reinstated by offering head coaches & finding all necessary participation in the West Contra Costa Unified School Districts 6 main public high schools.
Building a self perpetual, strong foundation for the sport will allow members of the community to enjoy the family activities that the sport offers.

Recently, my family and i have been being harassed by our landlord of 33 years and have been extremely frustrated because we keep getting "there is nothing we can do to help you because its a single family home". The city complains homelessness is an issue in Richmond but allow landlords to over run their tenants like this and watch more and more families become homeless. STOP ONLY HELPING APARTMENTS, DUPLEX'S AND ETC. HELP EVERYONE. TO ME THIS IS DISCRIMINATION AND NOT A WAY TO HAVE A COMMUNITY.

Create an "enterprise zone that stretches from the I-580 freeway to the bay edge. Make Richmond known for holistic health, sports and fitness and a steward of the trades. Invite schools of all descriptions to relocate in Richmond. Not every child is destined for a 4 year college. Have those student enter the service industry: barbers, machinists, cosmetologists and so forth. Vocational arts. Marine-related businesses. Sailing centers. Richmond needs more dreamers who can imagine a robust city that accommodates all income levels. Alcohol and Drug Recovery Programs. Kaiser teaching hospital. Programs to assist people getting back on their feet. Incubators for people to launch their own businesses. A city of opportunity to begin anew. Phoenix.

The lane changes on Barret have made life on residential streets extremely dangerous for anyone living on ALL the cross streets in the city of Richmond. Drivers do not want to wait in all the traffic backup on Barret and now use residential streets to cut across the city. The disregard for people living here is getting out of hand as drivers speed through our neighborhoods. We especially have a problem at the corner of 38th and Cerrito. Drivers NEVER stop at the stop signs as they cut through town. Never mind that we have a elementary school, day care and park all with 2 blocks of the intersection. You are taking your life in your hands if you are a pedestrian on our streets. I'd like to see something put in place on this street that would curb this increasingly dangerous habit and I'd like to see more policing of the stop sign, especially during the morning and evening commute hours. The neighbors who live here have called the police many, many, many times but nothing is ever done.

Start by getting in touch with the museum and ask them if they would be interested in your special unique local historical treasures &or knowledge. Then donate artifacts or create & submit an exhibit for the Museum. It is a magical, peaceful, educational, fun family bonding activity.
The Richmond Museum of History is located roughly six blocks from BART and one block from AC Transit 72 line in the heart of downtown Richmond and is proud to be the oldest organization in West Contra Costa County dedicated to preserving local history. The Richmond Museum is housed in a Carnegie Library and owns the most significant collection of historical material and documents in the local area. The permanent collection was established in 1950 and is comprised of a variety of materials including textiles, fine art, archaeological collections, historical artifacts, documents, photographs. The Museum staff is small but what we lack in capacity, we far make up for in enthusiasm and love for our work.

Ohio Market is directly behind home. The store's backyard is filled with trash and it is piled against my fence. It is typically a foul scent in and around the store. It harbors huge rats. City inspectors need to ensure that neighborhood stores operate with a higher standard. If the store cannot afford to dispose of their trash properly, supply fresh foods, and maintain cleanliness inside and outside the store, it should not be in operation.
Tonight I opened my garage to see and HUGE RAT run across. This is because the store creates a space to harbor rodents. Their backyard is filled with junk and trash. Please set a standard for businesses in the city of Richmond.

Examine what's working around the Bay in terms of quality of life, environment, infrastructure and government. Example: adopt the "Bicycle Blvd." program pioneered in Berkeley. End the tyranny of the automobile. Make Richmond pedestrian/bicycle friendly. Invite schools of instruction in blue collar trades to our city. Plant trees, bushes, shrubs and flowers to attract butterflies, hummingbirds and honeybees. This will support the entire bay ecosystem. Rework the BART line from El Cerrito Del Norte to an elevated trackway and rebuild the Richmond BART/Amtrak Intermodal Station in the same vein as the Millbrae BART/CalTrain Station: move operations to ground level. No more mole tunnels. Build more housing developments like the Idaho Apartments/Rubicon Housing. Extend BART/The Ohlone Greenway to Hilltop Mall, or at least to Contra Costa College. How about an IMAX theater near the marina similar to the facility at Great America in Santa Clara?

Chevron has made efforts but it is not enough as Richmond is still in the same state and condition year after year. I want to advocate and be a voice to bring to the forefront that Richmond does not need simple payoffs and incentives, we need actual community development and results more than a few improvements here and there. For example, the community is faced with poverty and low income with limited resources as well as limited opportunity for the community to grow. Together we can be a voice and project more development in Richmond. There is not simply one problem as there are many problems and pollution can be a start to addressing problems. Therefore my idea is to bring the problems to desk of corporate Chevron and ask how are you helping us.
