Hello Town Council-
Thank you all for serving out town.
I’d like to register my support of Kylie Clark. I am surprised at the way some on the council handled their
disagreement with her right to free speech. The public shaming wasn’t right and not a proud moment for Los Gatos.
The censure should absolutely be removed.
It’s important to understand: those who study racism have noted that pointing out systemic racism is not racist.
I have grown to understand the housing issue more in the last year and have personally changed from being pro low-
density to pro affordable housing (which requires higher density).
I applaud her courage and forward thinking, and am glad she is working on the housing crisis our region is facing.
We can’t lament the regional housing crisis yet not want anything done in our town about it.
I feel represented by her. Bravo Kylie!
Sincerely,
Patti van der Burg
