His policy will destroy the city. He must go!

Mike O'Brien serves his own agenda and not the people he was elected to represent. He has not earned the right to hold this office.

Mr. O'Brien and his ridiculous policies need to go. I'm embarrassed to live in his district at this point. No sane person would have proposed to authorize camping all over the city as a solution to the homeless problem, let alone to pay each and every homeless person $250 each time the city fails to follow his crazy and onerous procedures for moving them out of parks and other public spaces. Who does he think he represents?

Mr. O'Brien does not represent those who put him in office and should be removed and I recommend other distracts voters to consider doing the same.

This homeless situation is getting out of hand. We need to start from scratch with a new plan

Mike O'Brien is NOT speaking for us. He's NOT representing what we want. Because of this, I cannot support him.

We need a City Council which represents the voters interests.

Mike O'Brien has his own agenda and all the meetings I've been to his ideas are not open for discussion even though the majority are against what he is doing!

Mike O'Brien = Abuse of power and a total disregard for the concerns of tax paying constituents he's supposed to represent.

Mr. O'Brien's ideas are out of step with those of his constituents. No more homeless sleeping in parks and on playgrounds and sidewalks. No more war on cars and drivers. I am sick to death of this politically expedient nonsense that serves to make my life and my neighborhood less enjoyable, less private, and less safe. You don't respond to emails or other means of contact. You are not a law unto yourself. You were elected to represent US, but your agenda and your actions speak otherwise. I am so over you!

You are a terrible selfish political hack. This will hopefully turn into a class action lawsuit against you and your family!

Sanctioned camping in parks as an effort toward homelessness should not be allowed. Homeless persons deserve respect and proper shelter, not a "camping is good enough for you" approach. The city should use its limited financial and human resources to work toward more indoor shelters and other substantial solutions. There are many organizations the city could partner with.for a more humane and environmentally responsible solution than opening city parks to camping.

Don't long term residents deserve some consideration?
