This will continue to fester in the #poseytriangle area. The West End will have to bear the burden while the rest of the island and City Council virtue signal. ⏰⏰⏰

Please remove and refer folks to supportive services. The concentration of homeless without proper support, safety and disposal of waste (ie, garbage, etc) will become a bigger problem. Please advise where we can refer homeless people to seek services especially during the colder months.

Certainly keep in mind that these folks currently have the right to refuse services and often do. Then what?🤔

Wow. Thank you for this update. Yes, we need to transition the new homeless from the public areas that can be a public hazard. City of Alameda please transition folks away from this area.

Agreed Louie, these folks have to be moved. They do not have the legal right to live in open public areas.

I contacted APD about this last week. They told me there is no law in Alameda making it illegal to camp on the street. The police said they can't remove them b/c they don't have anywhere to take them (i.e. a shelter). They also said they only course of action is to work with city council. I will be attending the city council meeting on Tuesday 11/19 @ 7pm. I'm deeply concerned about this issue. The encampment will grow exponentially if the residents don't take action. The people in charge of our safety aren't going to help us.

Call and/or email the City Mgr, too. Time for them to step up and stop hiding behind the virtue signaling. ⏰⏰⏰

Please email.

Also Sarah Henry at the City.

Will do the same. Some of the camp is located on the City Park which may be different.

I sent Sarah an email.

Hi Sam - I was researching the Alameda County Code of Ordinances and there is NO camping allowed in city parks (Sec. 23-7.2), so technically the police can move the vagrants out of that location, as well as any other location in Alameda that a public space.

Another group to engage is the West Alameda Business Association. WABA. Word is their members at Alameda Landing/Webster St. and are far from happy about this. #poseytriangle

Also contact the City Mgr Eric Levitt. Info on this app.

Thank you Steve! I was planning to research before the meeting next week. I will also see if I can get in touch with someone from WABA. Does anyone have a contact?

WABA....Linda Asbury

May also be Building Code enforcement?
Alleged violations that appear to be an immediate hazard to the health, safety, or welfare of the occupants(s) of a building.

Alleged violations of Alameda Municipal Codes concerning construction without building permits, dilapidated structure(s) of a building.

Zoning violations, junkyard, recreational vehicles being co-occupied as dwellings, land use violations.

It's getting worse. This is from 11/16

This can not be allowed! The Oakland side of the tubes are reprehensible and now moving towards Alameda.

Continue to contact City Manager, Council , and Sarah Henry. The virtue signaling by officials is painful. This would not be tolerated in the Gold Coast or East End.😱⏰⏰⏰

I've been saying it over and over again but I will keep saying it until everyone hears this message:

Our city government DOES NOT SERVE the people of this island. They only SERVE THEMSELVES. Our police chief makes over 400 grand a year, that's $400,000 dollars. FOUR AND FIVE TRAILING ZEROS. Thats your tax dollars at work. He lives in an affluent estate all the way out in Danville and could not give one single f--- about this situation. He thinks these homeless are just poor poor victims and that we should all feel bad for them. He thinks its fine for them to as.s.a.ul.t people, to trespass on people's properties and steal from them, to shoot up d.r.u.g.s in front of pre schools and dump their needles in the sandbox. Our police chief is perfectly fine with that. He even sent me an email earlier this year telling me he was going to pay their fines for them after I finally got one of the repeat trespassers cited for trespassing and stealing from private property in my neighborhood. Do you want to know why? Because his kids don't live here. Danville would never in a thousand years allow stuff like this to happen in Mr. Rolleri's neighborhood. They have a real government and real police department over there. Over here all we have are sorry c.l.o.w.n.s like Rolleri who don't even live here or care about the community. That's the truth folks. Take it how you will.

this is related to the massive i.l.l.e.g.a.l homeless encampment and toxic waste dumpsite at marina village that people have been complaining to the city about for the past approximately six or so years (maybe more?) and they have actively and knowingly ignored. They know this is happening. They knew this garbage was here before you even reported it. They just don't care. That's the reality. We've been trying to get this stuff cleaned up for literally like 6 years now and they don't care, they do nothing as it gets worse and worse every day.

The beat goes on...will have to become like Home Depot before the City Council even comments. Then the virtue signaling will intensify which is a ploy to avoid the issue. No way this would be tolerated at Franklin Park. #nimby⏰⏰⏰

Yes this would never be tolerated in Paul Rolleri (our alameda police chief)'s neighborhood in Danville. Danville police would never in a thousand years let this happen in his back yard.. But he is perfectly fine with it happening in our back yards. He doesn't live here!

And remember, the only reason why Mr. Rolleri was able to afford such an expensive and luxurious, wealthy estate in Danville was because we all paid him $400,000+ a year with our tax dollars. He also uses some of that money to pay off the fines of criminals who get cited by Alameda police for various crimes they committed in our communities.

This is your tax dollars at work folks. How long before people start to wake up and revolt?

Wonder why the Alameda Sun is not covering this developing story? 🤔

Los Angeles now has come with a new name for the street people/addicts they now are referred to a non serviceable. They refuse any social service help that requires them to be part of civil society. The State of Calif needs a full on tax revolt as well.

This is Caltrans property. City has contracted Caltrans to take action and is willing to coordinate efforts to clean-up the encampment. Caltrans has to initiate the closure of this encampment, as this is their property. Outreach is aware of this site and visits the encampment regularly to offer services and connect individuals to resources.
