City of Oakland Private Property - Code Enforcement PLUS

Shopping carts, waste, clutter piling up on this corner. It has been growing in the past month, and this morning there was a small fire on site.

This block of Manila between 38th and 40th continues to explode with trash, tents, bicycles in various states of disrepair, illegal dumping, and illegal storage.

There are at least 15 people that I have identified who live here, and a number of other people who pass through the encampment daily. Social distancing is not practiced in this growing encampment, no masks are being worn by these unhoused people, there are no hand washing stations or public toilets here, and there are no health or sanitation services currently being offered. This is a very concerning development, not only for the people who are living on this block unhoused but for people who are trying to maintain social distancing, and keep our neighborhood safe from covid, as well as crime.

Please consider the impact that allowing this encampment to grow daily is having on the health and safety of all people in this neighborhood, not only the people who have the ability and privilege to post on 311 or who can shelter in their own homes.

Where there was one RV then two; now there is three The owner is giving them permission to park on the street and feeds them electricity

Occupants are letting trade pile up on the property. Rats and smells are coming from the area and they aren't doing anything to get rid of it

Downed fence and unsecured property. People get into the lot, make noise, and creating a lot of graffiti issues on the property and fence of neighboring property. Sometimes fence falls onto the street blocking the sidewalk.

Someone has to do something about this encampment on a residential sidewalk! Please! I have found used syringes, a deranged man screams at passerbyers and wanders all over the neighborhood with a pipe in his hand. We’ve had three bicycles stolen from our backyard and we can quite visibly see the parts of one of them at this encampment (the police said there’s nothing they can do). There’s rats, mice, piles of trash and piles of human waste in doorways. My neighbors want to move because it’s not safe. It’s NOT SAFE.

when will be something done to have this seriously looked at? this woman constantly brings in more trash to this location, is seen a lot of times showing indecent exposure and by not wearing shirts or pants, and has been seen going to the bathroom right in the front yard! i have this as my view as i’m waking up in the morning or going to work. i am so tired of hearing her banging her trash at night when i try to sleep. i am so tired of it.

Property has huge amount of garbage dumped in the lot. This is a public safety issue and biohazard.
