                                 Presented by

Coastside Collaborative’s report to the City of Half Moon Bay
            on the results of the survey to Spanish-speaking residents
I. Background and methodology:

A. In September, 2002 Chief Ortiz approached us about helping the City with a project to survey
its Spanish-speaking residents on their opinions and requirements regarding services provided by
the City.
The survey group would include a cross-section of Spanish-speaking residents of the City of Half
Moon Bay and also Moonridge Housing complex (because Moonridge, although in
unincorporated San Mateo County, is close to the City proper and its residents are served mostly
by business and services within the City).

B. We submitted a proposal to the City in October, 2002, projecting one year from the date we
signed contracts to complete the project.

C. Discussions with the City’s attorney regarding a contract lasted from November, 2002 until
March, 2003. The agreement between the Collaborative and the City was signed 3/10/03.

D. We began Phase I in March, 2003.
• We developed survey questions, checked with City representative on scope of questions, and
distributed draft questions to City Council for their review and comments.
• Upon satisfying all parties that the questions would garner the data desired, we then translated
the survey into Spanish and tested the survey questions on a resident sample of about ten people.
We made a few adjustments to the wording to be a bit more culturally sensitive (for example, ‘if
not/why not’ questions were perceived as being challenges instead of attempts to gain more
understanding, so we softened the wording on those).

E. We began Phase II in May, 2003.
• We printed the survey, hired and trained two bilingual interviewers, Samantha Johnston and
Hector Gonzalez-Najera, and selected sites for interview ‘events’ and focus groups. We
approached a number of community groups serving the Spanish-speaking residents; some agreed
to allow us to attend their meetings, but some didn’t, citing lack of time at meetings and/or
concerns over disruptions or confidentiality issues. A few associations felt that questions about
City services were not germane to their group’s interests. We also decided to do one-on-one
interviews at Mac Dutra Park and the Public Library.

F. We began Phase III in June, 2003.
• In pairs, Susan Alvaro, Samantha Johnston, and Hector Gonzalez-Najera conducted the survey
at the Catholic Worker House and Our Lady of the Pillar Church, during Bilingual Story Hour
and the Touchpoints group at the Library, at the Intel Computer Clubhouse and ESL classes at
Moonridge, and during the Smart Girls club meeting at Boys & Girls Club.
Cabrillo Unified School District was especially cooperative, allowing us to individually survey
participants at three ESL (English as a Second language) evening classes, their Even Start and
Migrant Education parent groups, and both the Puente Club and SAL after school club at the
High School. The Migrant Education parent group was excited to be asked to participate in the
business of the community, and asked that we return to let them know both the results of the
survey and what the results of the City’s investigation may yield.
Hector went alone to Mac Dutra Park to chat with the men three times before they felt
comfortable answering his questions. We even hired someone to hand-deliver surveys to his
friends and neighbors, but he was unable to get many of them completed or returned to us.
                                                                                                  2
Based on our long-standing relationships in the community, many of the groups welcomed us
and were quite willing to talk, but others exhibited a surprising amount of discomfort and
distrust, especially considering the openness with which we had been received on previous
occasions, and for previous survey topics. I blame this on a couple of key differences:
1. Instead of questions about their children’s needs, we were asking questions about the adults
themselves, and they are simply less comfortable talking about that subject; and
2. The climate in the last couple of years has been so strongly anti-immigrant that many of the
local residents, especially but not only the undocumented among them, are increasingly reluctant
to talk to anyone representing a government entity, such as the City.

G. We began Phase IV in November, 2003, collating and processing the data and preparing this
summary of findings for the City.

H. Each session was begun with an explanation to the whole group that participation was
completely voluntary, anonymous, and confidential. We also explained that the purpose of the
survey was to help them, the Spanish-speaking residents, convey to the City their opinions and
information about what they needed from their city government.

II. Demographics:
• 703 people were successfully interviewed
• 270 or 38.5% were male; 433 or 61.5% were female
• Approximately 17% of respondents were between the ages of 16 and 20 years;
while the rest (83%) were over 21. The oldest was 60 years old.
• 663 people, or 94% reported living inside of the City of Half Moon Bay, while 40
(6%) did not. We believe that some of the residents of Moonridge identified
themselves as living in the city, as they are unclear about the area boundaries and
indeed feel themselves to be part of Half Moon Bay.
• 673 respondents (96%) said that Spanish was the primary language spoken in
their homes, even if they themselves spoke some English. 9 reported that
Zapoteca (an indiginous language) was the primary language spoken, although
they were fluent enough to respond to the survey in Spanish.

III. Results and comments:
• We have reported the responses as they were given by the participants. Any explanatory
comments were theirs. You will note that the percentages don’t always add up perfectly, but this
again reflects what we were told. On question 12, for instance, 108 people said they had called
the police or fire department; 80 of them said they resolved the problem for which they had
called for help, while 23 said they didn’t. Five people didn’t answer at all. When asked why
they felt the problem was not resolved, only 15 would give answers.

IV. Summary and Analysis:

A. Although there was some initial distrust of why the ‘government’ would want to ask the
opinions of the Spanish-speaking community, most people warmed to the idea and became quite
excited and grateful that the City would want to hear what they had to say.
In general, most people felt fairly comfortable and content. It was no surprise that those who had
stronger connections to the community felt more like they were part of it. Students and parents
of students had stronger feelings of connectedness, as did the group that had been trained as
‘community leaders’ by the Partnership for the Public’s Health and the Coastside Collaborative.
English speakers those who had been here longest had greater feelings of belonging than did
newer, non-English speaking residents. Most non-English speaking residents expressed a strong
desire to learn English, although some were unaware of opportunities to do so.
Residents of the Moonridge complex, located in unincorporated County, mostly self-identified as
part of the City proper, where the vast majority of them do business and attend religious services.
Similarly, respondents believed IDES Hall to be a City facility, relating it to public events such
as Pumpkin Festival and the March ‘Chamarita’ Carnival.
1. Some of the sense of disenfranchisement seemed to be connected to the considerable lack of
information or incorrect information that was noted; we believe that much of this could easily be
corrected by a concerted information campaign directed at the Spanish-speaking community.
We strongly suspect, however, that English speaking residents might share some of the same
confusion.
Examples of misunderstanding include:
• The difference between the City, Cabrillo Unified School District, and other government
entities, such as County services and the Department of Motor Vehicles, for instance. Several
residents were frustrated by the inability of City Hall staff to resolve their issues with the DMV,
for instance.
• The idea that one must be ‘invited’ to attend public meetings, that one must be a tax payer or
home owner to attend, or that those are held exclusively during the work day.
• The lack of understanding of the process of registering and voting. Respondents suggested an
ongoing ‘civics class’ to teach them about how and where to register and vote, what issues are,
etc. Debates, for example, are conducted exclusively in English. This class might further be
used to learn general issues of ‘citizenship’, in the broader sense, such as why one might access
City Hall (or where it is!).
• Although only 29% reported that they volunteer their time, many more stated that they wanted
to, but felt unwelcome, uncomfortable (due to lack of English), or simply unsure of opportunities
and/or need. Most of the volunteers were youth affiliated with the Boys and Girls Club or SAL
(Sheriff’s Activity League) programs at the High School. Not surprising, those who volunteered
felt more ‘ownership’; they felt they were an integral part of the community.
2. Non-English speaking residents are less comfortable attending events and activities, asking
for assistance, and using available services. A concerted effort to provide bilingual fliers and
help at various contact points is recommended, as feasible. Many respondents suggested a
regular newsletter mailed to homes would keep them connected to the community.
Examples of such areas include:
• Parks and Recreation activities and classes. Although the department has been translating fliers
for many of its children’s activities, such as Candyland, etc., the Leisure Guide is in English
                                                                                                      8
only. Of course, Spanish-language listings of classes offered in English only may be
counterproductive, but the possibility exists that non-English speaking parents might be willing
to enroll English speaking children, if they were informed.
• Public meetings, such as City Council, are incomprehensible to non-English speaking residents,
and many either did not know where or when to attend or felt they had to be ‘invited’.
• Contact points, such as City Hall, the Police Department, the Community Center, and the
schools, should have bilingual help for residents seeking services. 84% of respondents cited
‘someone to answer questions in Spanish’ as the specific City service they need and would be
well pleased to have a phone number for accessing general information and asking questions in
Spanish. The increasing number of Spanish-speaking police officers is helping residents
communicate with the HMBPD. Additionally, commercial services, such as the AT&T
translating operators, are available ‘on-demand’ to assist with multilingual telephone calls, and
have been used successfully by some of the departments.
• Residents, although they expressed an interest in watching translated broadcasts or reading
translated reports of meetings, were unaware of the local public Channel 6 and felt it wasn’t
worthwhile reading the local paper [the Review], because the English-only content is
inaccessible to them. Some older residents wondered what had become of the Spanish-language
section of the Review.
3. Many of the respondents reported that, although they attended many of the free public events
[nearly 90% attended these], the cost of many activities were prohibitive. Only about 12%
attended City-sponsored classes or activities. We also suspect that cost accounts for the
relatively low ridership of public transportation.
4. Although a small percentage of respondents reported having used the Police or Fire
Departments for either emergency or non-emergency services, those who had reported that they
were treated with respect and courtesy by the officers or office staff. Most people felt that they
could communicate effectively with personnel, and language was the single largest barrier to
satisfactory communication.
Because Moonridge complex is served by the Sheriff’s Office, we must conclude that these
feelings apply to that department, as well.
5. Evening hours for various City services were suggested for those unable to access them
during normal working hours. Alternatively, a phone number accessible during evening hours
and weekends might serve this need.
6. Respondents overwhelmingly (89%) reported that they felt part of the community,
commenting that they felt safe, that racism was low, and that they had family or other ties
locally. Negative responses overwhelmingly revolved around the perception that they were
unwelcome or treated badly by many local business.
7. Respondents’ suggestions for topics we hadn’t asked mostly revolved around increased
services and activities for children and youth, including wanting a large, community-centered
park, such as San Mateo’s Central Park, that could be used by everyone.

B. The Collaborative proposes that a follow-up survey be developed and delivered
approximately 6-12 months after the completion of this process, to see if the suggestions have
been successfully implemented by City departments and are being well received and utilized by
the Spanish-speaking residents.
