Eliminate Street Sweeping Parking Restrictions in Affordable Housing Areas

The Issue

In Ventura, CA, USA, residents of affordable housing neighborhoods are subjected to parking restrictions due to street sweeping. This policy disproportionately affects lower-income households who may not have access to private parking options. According to the Ventura County Star, street sweeping tickets make up a significant portion of all parking citations issued in the city. This financial burden falls heavily on our most vulnerable citizens and is a clear issue of equity. We call upon the City Council to eliminate these parking restrictions for street sweeping in affordable housing neighborhoods and find alternative solutions that do not disproportionately impact those with limited means. Please sign this petition if you believe in fair and equitable policies for all Ventura residents.
