Great idea, Liz! This area needs to be cleaned up and used for good. I too have had to step over the dog to get to the school.
I'm not heartless to the needs of the homeless and would support a structured and monitored space for RV parking, etc, but this encampment location is unsafe for the kids who are walking through it to access school.

We implore you to take action on this lot. Because you have been repeatedly made aware of the public nuisance and danger to children that this lot causes, it seems that it would behoove you to address this before it becomes a lawsuit and/ or a tragic story. Please take action.

This issue was originally reported and acknowledged for code enforcement in July...now it's October and kids had to be sent home from public school next door due to fire smoke. This is horrific that situation is allowed to continue.
My understanding is this is privately owned property where the owner has abdicated responsibility. This alone should provide an avenue to pursue a helpful resolution to these kids and this school. Charge the owner or confiscate the property and CLEAN IT OUT.
This isn't a 'live and let live' situation...this is a dumping ground for stolen property where things are set on fire. No neighborhood should be expected to live with this. Take action NOW.

Do the right thing and please prioritize this.
I am sure that your department is overstretched but this is at a school!

This is a problem that really needs to be addressed. Manny and his girlfriend were moved out by the owner and the property was cleaned – but since then they have moved back and recruited a number of other homeless people to occupy the property. Basically the cleanup allowed them to pack the entire property and it appears nothing is being done to prevent this.
You can see what this looks like from the upstairs window of our brick building. I have been very accommodating of the homeless situation on E.12th as we have been rebuilding these buildings. But now it is making the area undesirable and unsafe.
Manny and his “guests” are illegally taking electricity from the light poles and taking water from EBMUD.
And a few weeks ago I was assaulted by Manny who is the mayor of this encampment when I moved a stolen vehicle that had been dropped in front of my gate further down E. 12th. He accused me of trying to make his encampment look bad – I was just trying to have access to my property. I called the police and reported this assault but they told me they can’t do anything really as it is private property and at most this is a misdemeanor offence. I did not fight him – or provoke him – it was really outrageous behavior he exhibited. He gets pretty crazed.
Is there anything to be done to evict them? Can the city enforce the many ordinances that prohibit this squatting and occupancy? Cut off the electricity and water? Can you get the Sherrif to move them out and keep them out?
We have spent a lot of time and money rebuilding our buildings, got permits from the city and followed the rules. We pay a lot of taxes. But now we are having a hard time renting the property as potential tenants are worried about this homeless encampment. I can say now after being assaulted that I agree.
And what about the school? What do the teachers and kids think of having a homeless encampment with potentially dangerous occupants right over the fence?
I would be happy to help however I can - anything I can do if you can help make a difference.
