Six officials, by meetings where they raised it
“I got a binder here. I got a binder here that I’m gonna give you. We know where all the RVs are.”
“It’s not the city responding. Even the streets in front that the city should take care of, they’re not doing it. But when I call Caltrans, they’re the ones that come out and clean under the freeways. But yet the city does not enforce the rules that we have about illegal dumping, about the trash, about the homeless activity.”
“Where is it in the encampment abatement policies that would have led to additional interventions so that when we do these closures, there’s somewhere for people to be?”
“I, uh, was— I do want to talk about the issue of homelessness since in the budget, if Measure E doesn’t pass, 190 shelter beds are slated to close, correct?”
“I would summarize it as provide clarity on what Caltrans is willing to do and work with Caltrans on the homelessness encampment policy.”
