    April 8, 2021 The Honorable Toni Atkins The Honorable Anthony Rendon Senate Pro Tempore Assembly Speaker State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 The Honorable Nancy Skinner The Honorable Phil Ting Chair, Senate Budget Committee Chair, Assembly Budget Committee State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear President Pro Tempore Atkins, Speaker Rendon and Budget Chairs Skinner and Ting, We appreciate your willingness to meet with us, and to continue your partnership with the mayors of our largest cities in finding pragmatic solutions to address our state’s homelessness crisis. Given the scale of the challenge we collectively face, and because of the extraordinary opportunity created by two unique circumstances--the passage of the American Rescue Plan and the state’s budget surplus--we write to revisit our prior budget request. As you know, we have long believed that the state must identify an ongoing, consistent allocation of flexible funding sufficient to meet the enormity of the challenge in our cities for affordable housing construction and supportive services. While our economic challenges make it difficult to identify an ongoing revenue source, the large amount of one-time funding presents a generational opportunity to make a dramatic move to address our homelessness crisis. That can be accomplished by setting aside a one-time allocation of $16 billion for a steady expenditure of $4 billion per year over the next four years. Through our partnership, we’ve accomplished much in our cities in recent years through such initiatives as Project Homekey, HHAP, and HEAP. We created permanent or transitional housing for our homeless at an average cost to the state of $148,000 per unit under Project Homekey, for instance, and we built prefabricated dorms, modular housing, tiny homes, and shelters even more cost-effectively with state and local dollars.

  • Sent a Letter
    March 26, 2020 Dr. Steven Dillingham, Ph.D Director United States Census Bureau Washington, DC 20233 Dear Dr. Dillingham: Given the unprecedented events associated with the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we urge you to extend the Census response deadline beyond its currently scheduled conclusion on August 14, 2020 to September 30, 2020 and authorize United States Census Regional Offices to exercise flexibility in the timeline for enumeration in their respective jurisdictions. As our cities continue to dedicate resources to respond to this outbreak and take strong precautionary measures to ensure social distancing, there will be diminished capacity to administer the Census. A Census count under these circumstances would not only fail to properly account for our current population, particularly our most vulnerable residents, but could also have dire consequences for our communities’ public health. Over the past two years, our cities have worked with thousands of community-based and faith-based organizations to develop a wide array of targeted outreach strategies to educate and motivate residents to respond to the 2020 Census. These outreach strategies heavily rely on direct, face-to-face communication and interaction with residents to encourage participation in the Census and overcome barriers to participation that cause many communities to be historically undercounted. With the mandated cessation of all large gatherings and the imposition of social distancing practices, our cities and partners have had to cancel meetings, workshops, community and neighborhood events, as well as a variety of door-to-door canvassing operations. We know that none of these tried and true outreach methods are possible in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and that any Census count that occurs without this outreach will cause an historic and extremely damaging undercount.

  • Wrote to Governor Gavin Newsom Detailing Their
    May 12, 2020 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol Building, 1st Floor Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom, We applaud your leadership during this intensely challenging time. In addition to the many life- or-death decisions made regarding health matters, you and your team are tackling a historic budget deficit, wrought by the economic fallout from this pandemic. As we all know too well, the weeks ahead require painful cuts and gut-wrenching trade-offs. We seek to continue to work collaboratively with you and your team as you navigate these perilous waters to make difficult decisions in this moment of budgetary scarcity. In a spirit of collaboration, we offer our top priorities for this year’s budget. First, we seek to ensure that all cities over 300,000 in population obtain a full and fair allocation of federal CARES Act funding, to compensate for the unprecedented emergency efforts undertaken to address the pandemic in our communities. As we’re learning from FEMA, many of those efforts—such as provision of millions of meals daily for our needy families struggling without a paycheck—may go unreimbursed. Although six of our cities—all having more than 500,000 residents–have received a direct allocation provided by the legislation, seven of California’s largest 13 cities remain left behind. We seek that the State of California provide a reasonable distribution of its Federal allocation Coronavirus Relief Fund dollars to Long Beach, Oakland, Bakersfield, Anaheim, Santa Ana, Riverside, and Stockton for eligible pandemic- related expenditures. Second, consistent with your longstanding commitment to reduce homelessness, we seek to sustain previous direct allocations of funding to cities and counties that enable a flexible and nimble response to our homelessness crisis.

Tasks completed for the scope of work include a cultural resources records search, a reconnaissance-level pedestrian cultural resources survey, technical report, Native American Heritage Commission Sacred Lands File Search, and paleontological overview. These tasks were performed in partial fulfillment of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements. The records search revealed that 24 cultural resource studies have occurred resulting in 26 cultural resources identified within one mile of the project. The nearest cultural resource was an isolated prehistoric projectile point 50 meters west of the project site on the northwest corner of Jurupa Avenue and Cedar Avenue. The project site has been partially assessed for cultural resources by one previous study, and no previously recorded resources have been identified within its boundaries. During the field survey, BCR Consulting archaeologists did not discover any cultural resources, including prehistoric or historic archaeological sites or historic buildings, within the project boundaries.

  • Mayors Letter to President Trump on Fiscal Assistance
    August 5, 2020 The Honorable Donald J. Trump President of the United States The White House Dear President Trump: The United States Conference of Mayors – and the more than 1,400 cities it represents – is grateful for the actions the Administration and Congress have taken over the last several months to respond to COVID-19. We are also pleased that you recognize more must be done to address the ongoing public health pandemic and spur an economic recovery. This public health crisis continues to have devastating effects on communities across the country. As discussions advance on the next pandemic response package, and as cases continue to surge across the nation, we urge you to make support for American cities a top priority. Today we are writing to request $250 billion in direct, flexible emergency assistance to cities of all sizes in the COVID response and recovery bill currently under negotiation, and to convey the great urgency of need in American cities. From the start, cities have been on the front lines of the fight against this disease, coordinating local responses and devoting significant resources to help keep people safe. At the same time, as economies shut down, cities have experienced a precipitous decline in tax revenue – the full impact of which economists expect to grow. Together, these dynamics have decimated city budgets in cities large and small. These budget gaps are a direct result of this pandemic, and they are forcing painful decisions, including layoffs, furloughs, and cuts to essential government services when our residents need them the most. The situation is threatening public safety and costing people jobs.

    October 30, 2020 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor of California State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: As mayors of the Big City Mayor’s Coalition representing some of the largest cities in California, we again thank you for your leadership during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. We write to you today regarding the ongoing discussion surrounding the safe re-opening protocols for some of the largest economic engines in many of our communities – large theme parks. The guidelines put forth by your Administration were released within the framework of prioritizing public health and safety for guests and employees. This is the right focus. However, economic and public health are not mutually exclusive goals. We are concerned that the state’s guidelines would push re-opening of large theme parks up to a year out, which would have significant negative impacts on hundreds of thousands of jobs, thousands of small businesses, and billions in operating revenue for our cities. As you may have recently seen, labor unions and employee groups representing many of the workers at these theme parks have joined in calls for a timely, safe reopening. This call is a result of their direct knowledge of the health and safety protocols, and their need to get back to work. We therefore respectfully request that your Administration work with our most impacted coalition members – Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Diego – to continue the discussion of how we can maintain a health-first focus while modifying protocols to allow large theme parks to open in Tier Three with reduced capacity, rather than Tier Four.

    March 29, 2021 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear President Biden, On behalf of the nation’s mayors, we thank you for your Administration’s efforts to increase the supply of COVID-19 vaccines and testing to ensure our cities can recover from the COVID-19 public health emergency. However, we need two additional federal actions in order to improve equitable vaccination efforts: First, we need to be able to maximize the potential of local governments, and second, we need significantly more vaccine supply. Maximizing Local Governments: We ask that you provide vaccine directly to cities nationwide, and ensure states do not interfere with our allocations. City governments understand our communities and our local infrastructure best and therefore can most nimbly identify community assets, deploy municipal services, and draw on local expertise to vaccinate residents equitably and efficiently. We see and do not accept the troubling pattern emerging nationwide showing that people of color and vulnerable populations do not have sufficient access to the vaccine. Many of those people live in cities—and as mayors of those cities, for the sake of our most marginalized constituents, we ask that you provide us direct allocation with true local control so that we can increase the efficiency and equity of vaccine distribution. Furthermore, the magnitude of the need for vital protective equipment and supplies in cities large and small across our nation continues to be a concern. We commend your successful efforts thus far, and urge you to fully utilize the Defense Production Act to rapidly and continuously increase the production and stockpiling of supplies critical to COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccine administration.
