Subject: Library Parking Problem
Dear Library Commissioners,
I am writing to you out of concern for all Cupertino residents who visit the library. The lack of parking problem at the
Cupertino Library is getting worse. Every time I visit the library, I dread about the parking. It is almost guaranteed that
the parking lot is full during the day, and you will see numerous cars circling around the lot or simply stop their cars and
wait for anyone leaving. Often I end up circling for 15 — 20 min without finding a spot and leave out of frustration.
This kind of bad traffic is unsafe and asking for trouble. The parking problem is not new and I have observed this
problem getting worse by the day. Parking spots were limited in the first place, and with half of them assigned to permit
parking, visitors have even less to work with.
Can you do something about this? I hope other concerned citizens have also complained to you about this issue. We
need to find a solution or at least start a conversation about potential solutions. I am sure your goal is to encourage
more residents to use the library. But this problem turns residents away, unless they get a ride or walk to the
library. This is not right.
Thank you for your attention.
