Definitely not a priority for the city to deal with and don't expect them to enforce our laws. Vallejo seems to not care. If they do anything they will tell the offenders to leave then they will be doing the same thing elsewhere perhaps closer to your home.

It sure appears Vallejo City is not concern over this matter .Being overlooked for several weeks...To bad this isn't one of those if you can't beat em' Join em' situations..Enough is Enough..pls clean up asap..

Code Enforcement Division assigned this issue to Christina E., Community Services Section (CSS)

This is an example of what we're complaining about, yet getting no response for clean up

It is discouraging to have homeless making a mess of our park. Garbage in the area on Wilson to the right of the bait shop. Over flowing garbage can. Can't we keep Wilson St and River Park free if garbage? That goes for the Lighthouse condos too! Do we havecto live with garbage??

Homeowner and taxpayer

No, this request is a long way from being ready to close. This stocky bald homeless guy needs to be removed from the area, trash picked up, vegetation cut back and any other encampments removed. How about we wait for results that reflect change before we simply close this request?
The residents of this city are sick and tired of the rampant filth and vagrancy that has overtaken this city, we demand results.

No nearby car dealerships here, and well-away from the boom-time real estate happy hunting grounds. No hi-profile, hi-tech, big budget promises for unionized public service agencies.

So long as those interests fund the majority of our open-place city council elections, don't expect to see anyone speak up for waterfront tax payers.

Issue 5035201 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue.

GVRD managed the parks throughout the City of Vallejo and they have their own protocol they follow for encampments. Once they are ready to have this camper removed they will contact us and we will assist. However we have spoke to him on 2 separate occasions asking him to move along.

telling him to move along isn't enough. We need our laws enforced. he will just move around the neighborhood moving trash around and we will be here commenting. Such a shame with this dysfunctional system

That's true....being asked to "move along" doesn't solve the persistent problem. They (he) will move a couple of blocks away and trash an area near by. After living here 30 years this problem seems to be getting worse....can't anyone helpbus keep our neighborhood clean and safe???

The problem is when you overlook laws the homeless learn about it and take advantage of the towns with little law enforcement. The problem will just get worse until there are changes in the way Vallejo is managed. Right now Vallejo is broken and needs better leadership. Homeless rights should end when they infringe on our rights.

They are offered rooms in Fairfield but often they won't take the offer. So the homeowners and taxpayers are stuck having them around usctrashing the place, doing drugs, and burglarizing our homes. Not all are like that but many are. Many are sex offenders without housing.

Used to feel sorry for them but its so out of control now in fed up.

Homeowner taxpayer

We need new blood in city hall

Vote Malagago and Pippin dew Costa out or we will have a toxic cement factory in vallejo. Vote Messiner and Brown.

...right. So, ok, you're saying if people that can't afford to even rent a room somewhere start a fire in the homeless encampment, we should "make them pay for it"? Really? Really.

Jordan, maybe by going to jail , being evicted from the city or community service etc. . Don't overlook the laws that need enforcing

Your damn right I’m saying that. If they are persistently trespassing and camping on private or public property and their illegal actions cause a fire, by all means they should be held accountable and pay for it, court order payment plan or mandatory community service to compensate if they have no way to monetarily pay for it.
Time to get serious about protecting the rights and property of tax paying citizens.

I no longer look to seeing a Fresh Morning when we start our new Morning.. Unfortunately I hesitate to see what the local bum/bums leave throughout the Mare Island area for all others to view and they Don't Care..

The "Choose Vallejo" effort has at least six employees to promote Vallejo as a place to live and invest. The website, videos and promotional materials are well done. Their efforts are almost certainly lost when someone drives to Vallejo and sees what's going on at River Park and other parts of the city. Few people will consider living or investing here if the immediate impression is that of a city that cannot take care of itself.

Earlier photo looks to be the same guy who was going up Benson with a green Recology bin, naturally going through peoples trash cans. Called VPD non-emergent line and of course got no response or even a call back. Living in River Park and going through trash cans will not result in this man getting appropriate housing. Increasing investment and tax base will allow for a city coming out of bankruptcy to make a difference; allowing people to squat in River Park and trash the area will only result in both them and the city spiraling down.

He is still daily going through trash and spreading it around the neighborhood. Vallejo is mismanaged

River park was checked and no homeless encampments were located.

You must have missed the encampment by the Mare Island bridge and the tent on the side of the path leading to Daniels. They have been there for awhile..still there this morning. Plus, there is an abandoned campsite along water's edge full of trash.

Thank you Lena for reopening this request. This is definitely still an issue here.
What has become of the stocky bald bum. Is he still around. If he is, this case will have to remain open for a long time.

The stocky bald guy is believed to be a part of the illegal campers north of the store and south of Farragut in the vacant lot. Trash caused by them in vacant lots on both side of Farragut and an illegal vehicle the police and city don't care about on Wilson ct.

Encampments are abandoned. We contacted GVRD to clean them up.

Thanks for fixing this request!
