Dear Public Works
THE JAPANTOWN AND District 5 communities are extremely pleased with Traci Lawrence and the OnE Team ' s work . They are making a huge and noticeable difference . Most importantly , they are beginning to change the culture to be more self-managed – the community is learning the correct standard of cleanliness . We love Traci ’ s responsiveness and appropriately assertive style .

THANK YOU , GREGORY Townsend of the OnE team , for taking time to walk around the Greater Rincon Hill district yesterday . You have a large area to cover within the City ( and Treasure Island ), so I appreciate your effort to look at a few persistent challenges in the neighborhood . The insights and experience you shared will be valuable to us going forward as we work to educate property owners and merchants . We will absolutely share the materials you ’ ve provided in our communications with stakeholders . We all look forward to working in collaboration with you and the Public Works team to see this neighborhood live up to all its potential !

I ' VE BEEN NOTICING YOUR Pit Stop public toilet program around the City lately and the big improvement .
I have thought for a long time that it ' s a tragic thing that one of the many indignities of homelessness is the lack of safe and sanitary restrooms . I ' m so happy to know that this City is now working to address the problem , and I wanted to pass on the positive feedback .
