Dear City of Cupertino,
I am speaking today on behalf of CAYLA, the Cupertino Association of Youth LGBTQ+ Advocates, in support of the
rainbow crosswalk petition.
I am coca and am a recent graduate of Cupertino High School.
The city of Cupertino has stalled the rainbow crosswalk project for too long against the wishes of its residents, citing
regulations and liabilities to undermine the project. The Mayor has cited legal concerns over installing a rainbow
crosswalk, despite the well‐documented number of crosswalks across the bay, and Cupertino’s own red crosswalks near
city hall that are neither white, grey, nor yellow. Cupertino has a legacy of being anti‐LGBTQ—this is a no brainer that
attempts to shine a light on being more inclusive—to stall any further shows a profound lack of allyship from Cupertino.
A rainbow crosswalk at the intersection of Stevens Creek Boulevard and Main Street within 1000 feet of Cupertino High
School is an important symbol of inclusion and acceptance for the vulnerable LGBTQ+ youth population in our city, and it
should not be delayed any further.
I remember the coding camp that I attended, the summer of my junior year. Given many options for a group project,
one of them was a website that lists places that LGTBQ+ people can visit without being harassed. Being an LGBTQ+
myself, I was so excited that I told my parents about it.
“What! I thought you were straight!” When I heard that, I felt like I didn’t matter. After that event, I stayed quiet and
pretended to be someone that I am not.
Not only did that event wounded me, but other small instances hurt my feelings. I would mentally cringe when someone
calls me by the wrong pronouns or when someone says something wrong based on the gender that I display. Not only
misgendering a person is disrespecting them, but you are also telling me their true gender identity doesn't matter.
Keeping quiet about my true gender identity hurts, but I did this since I don't know if people will accept me as I am or
reject me.
I did come out and I was happy people did accept me.
If the City of Cupertino built the Rainbow Crosswalk, that would be a comforting message that not only me, but LGTBQ+
people are welcomed here.
Sincerely,
coca

Dear City of Cupertino,
I am speaking today on behalf of CAYLA, the Cupertino Association of Youth LGBTQ+ Advocates, in support
of the rainbow crosswalk petition.
My name is Xaander, I live in Cupertino, and I currently go to CHS.
The city of Cupertino has stalled the rainbow crosswalk project for way too long against the wishes of its
residents. The Mayor has cited legal concerns over installing a rainbow crosswalk, despite the well-
documented number of crosswalks across the bay, and Cupertino’s own red crosswalks near city hall that are
neither white, grey, nor yellow. Despite many residents of Cupertino trying to prove how they are inclusive and
"woke," Cupertino still has a legacy of being anti-LGBTQ and pretending to be more inclusive. Stalling this
project any further will show a lack of allyship from Cupertino. A rainbow crosswalk at the intersection of
Stevens Creek Boulevard and Main Street within 1000 feet of Cupertino High School is an important symbol of
inclusion and acceptance for the vulnerable LGBTQ+ youth population in our city, and it should not be delayed
any further.

Dear Councilmembers ‐
The City of Vancouver painted a rainbow crosswalk in a densely populated neighborhood. They were astonished and
thrilled with the positivity that ensued. The same happened in Seattle, WA. Happy City (happycity.org) did an
experiment with the rainbow crosswalk and discovered that pedestrians were kinder to strangers. It produced a flurry of
positive emotions in visitors, regardless of their sexual orientation. Visitors reported feeling 40% happier at the rainbow
intersection than they did at the standard one a block away. They were 60% more likely to meet friends at that
intersection and want to remain in the area to eat and shop. They also believed that if they lost their wallet there, they
were much more likely to get it back if a stranger found it.
Loneliness and social isolation are a pressing concern during these unprecedented times. Even more so for the LGBTQ+
community. Let's spread some cheer and let our residents and visitors know that Cupertino is a unique, inclusive City
and one that the locals care about.
Thank you,
Cathy

ATTENTION CITY CLERK, PLEASE READ THIS LETTER INTO RECORD AT THE END OF THE
ORAL COMMUNICATION ON 7/21.
Dear City of Cupertino, I am speaking/writing today on behalf of CAYLA, the Cupertino Association of
Youth LGBTQ+ Advocates, in support of the rainbow crosswalk petition. I'd like to remain anonymous
for privacy and use the name Draven Valcourt, but I am a student and resident of Cupertino.
The city of Cupertino has stalled the rainbow crosswalk project for too long against the wishes
of its residents, citing regulations and liabilities in an effort to undermine the project. The Mayor has
cited legal concerns over installing a rainbow crosswalk, despite the well-documented number of
crosswalks across the bay, and Cupertino’s own red crosswalks near city hall that are neither white,

within 1000 feet of Cupertino High School is an important symbol of inclusion and acceptance for the
vulnerable LGBTQ+ youth population in our city, and it should not be delayed any further. In times like
these, where there's much need for equal representation in society, now would be an optimal time to
begin the rainbow crosswalk project. As we have seen in the BLM movement, suppressed and
ignored societies need more representation in modern day. A rainbow crosswalk would be ideal for
the LGBTQ+ community representation because a) it would spread awareness b) it represents
LGBTQ+ c) it would make Cupertino a more welcoming town. If we show our support to suppressed
groups, people will become more accepting and educated towards them, making our town a much
more wholesome and welcoming environment. Please consider starting the rainbow crosswalk.
Sincerely, Draven Valcourt

Dear City of Cupertino,
I am emailing the city council today in support of the rainbow crosswalk and the comments made by CAYLA members
during the city council meeting on Tuesday 7/21. I agree with the sentiments expressed by many others; a rainbow
crosswalk on Stevens Creek being built will signal to the LGBTQ+ students that cross it that their city cares about their
wellbeing, despite the discrimination they could face in the public or at home.
Approximately $30,000 is how much the rainbow crosswalk will cost vs $10,000 for a regular crosswalk.
Materials used for rainbow crosswalks are generally Methyl Methacrylate paint and thermoplastic paint
because they last longer and are much more durable. Compared to the 3 years once repainting of
regular crosswalks, these can hold up for up to a decade. The usual white paint used is water-based.
San Francisco’s famous castro street crosswalks are made of thermoplastic and it holds up for nearly
a decade.
As transgender health protections have been reversed.Trump lobbied for repealing Section
1557 of the Affordable Care Act, which established that it is illegal to discriminate on the basis of
"race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability in certain health programs and activities.” Now the
trump adminitstration has redefined sex from gender identity to biological sex, so it’s legal to
discriminate based on gender identity.
Transgender members of our community already have to pay costs equivalent to the rainbow
crosswalk for transitioning surgeries and hormonal medications despite having insurance coverage. If
hospitals can discriminate against patients, it is simply violating human rights.
In these simply obscene times people of the lgbtq+ community require solidarity. If people of our
community, the community of cupertino, aren’t allowed to express themselves and feel supported,
what kind of a city are we?

Please find below abbreviated comments that we are requesting be read for the record at the appropriate
point for Agenda Item #22. Attached, for your convenience, is the letter submitted earlier to City Council and
city staff. Please feel free to be in touch with any questions. Thank you.
*************************
First, I would like to say that as the new president of De Anza College, as of July 1, I look forward
to meeting each member of City Council, as well as city staff.
I am writing today, however, to express my disappointment at the message sent by today’s
agenda item #22, the elimination of $50,000 in funding for a partnership with De Anza College on
a student home share program, with those funds to be diverted to funding a city housing survey. I
ask that City Council continue to be attentive to the needs of students at your local college,
including the serious issues of housing insecurity and homelessness. I am aware that both City
Council and the Housing Commission have heard from members of college senior staff on this
issue, which remains significant during this pandemic, and that these senior staff members have
been working closely with city staff over the past year and more.
We work to inform students of available resources, including Catholic Charities’ home share
program, which matches students with those in the community who have a room available to
rent. Once we learned how well established this program is – although certainly there are
significant associated costs —we told city staff that in our view, it is not necessary for Cupertino
to, in effect, re‐create this wheel with the college.
Having said that, however, we were surprised to learn that the funding as it relates to De Anza
College is proposed to be diverted, and are concerned that this may send the message that City
Council is not supportive of the demonstrable needs of our students. Please refer to the more
extensive letter submitted to City Council and city staff earlier today.
We ask for reaffirmation from City Council that it supports efforts on behalf of the students of De
Anza College with unmet basic human needs. Thank you.

Dear Honorable Mayor Scharf, Vice Mayor Paul, and Council Members,
I support Option 4‐mail survey to each resident with a household‐specific code. Although this option is
the most expensive, it guarantees that the data you collect is correct. Sending to each home ensures
that you reach everyone, even those that don’t do online surveys
Options 1‐3 DO NOT guarantee that the data actually is from Cupertino residents. Why waste money on
invalid data? Why pay for trash data? Bad data IN results in inaccurate analysis OUT.
If you’re going to do this survey, do it right! Get accurate data!
Thank you,
Peggy Griffin

analysis OUT.
If you’re going to do this survey, do it right! Get accurate data!
