    I am John Sander of 12th & Pine St, West Oakland.
    Concerned about Wood Street from 7th St to Emeryville

    Homeless encampments on Wood Street and throughout the Prescott neighborhood.
    Deplorable conditions & threats to public health & safety.
    Trash accumulating in these encampments.
    $250k annual budget to deal with homelessness is not enough to address the epidemic that is plaguing Oakland. We need much more funding and strong City leadership.
    We need a Homelessness Czar to solve the problem.
    This will only get worse if it is not dealt with now!

    Please add the appropriate funds into the budget to eliminate this scourge on Oakland.
