Â鶹ÊÓƵ

During the fall semester 2017, a Qualitative Methods in Sociology class at California State University San Marcos
(CSUSM) partnered with the City of San Marcos and Democracy In Action through the University’s Oce of
Community Engagement to conduct an exploratory study of parking in San Marcos’ Rosemont neighborhood.
Thirty-four undergraduate students collaborated on this multi-faceted research project to better understand
long-standing parking issues in the Rosemont development, a residential neighborhood not far from campus.
The following research questions guided our work:
·What is the problem?
·Who is involved?
·What expectations do stakeholders have about parking?
·How do those involved understand the origins and nature of the problem?
·What is being done in other locations to address similar challenges? What are some solutions that may be
eective in San Marcos to address t his particular set of challenges?
