Dear Los Gatos Town Council and City Clerk,
I am writing in support of Kylie Clark, Planning Commissioner for Los Gatos who wasunfairly censured for accurately noting that race and socioeconomic inequality exists, and
presents an impediment to solving our housing affordability crisis.
Los Gatos is a mostly white community, where--just like elsewhere in the Bay Area--neighbors organize to oppose housing projects that they perceive to be detrimental to their
neighborhoods. We uplift and respect these voices, while ignoring those who actually needhomes. Kylie spoke up for justice and deserves to be celebrated, not punished. Please rescind
the censure.
Best,Neil Park-McClintick
President, Cupertino for All
