The reported encampment is on City property, and recent federal court cases have restricted removal of homeless encampments on public property. In Martin v. City of Boise, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a unanimous decision, finding that the City of Boise’s prohibition against sleeping in public violates the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment when no alternative shelter is available. Thus, cities cannot enforce camping/lodging prohibitions if their local homeless population faces inadequate shelter space. However, the City will continue to monitor the location and assist with clean-ups when appropriate.

Thank you for fixing this.

Maybe, if the police patrolled the areas, they could catch the people committing CRIME: the area is full of drug use, drug sales, prostitution. We see it every day. The City of Vallejo needs to stop turning a blind eye to the very real crime in the areas. It is not just an issue of homelessness. Stop calling this all 'the homeless problem' and address the very real issue of the criminal activity that goes on day and night at the homeless encampments.
