There’s a lot more information there than I’m using here: If you’re interested in the subject it’s really worth looking at these.
Here are the sets of records this post is mostly 5 based on. 4 The scheduling is done by email as well as by editing Google Docs, and the emails occasionally reveal the reason a given encampment is being targeted. I think that ordinarily every request for a sweep in a given District goes through this San contact. 2 For instance, the City has two kinds of sweep teams, which are CARE and CARE+, but I’m not going to talk about the differences, 3 which are probably important, but not for this post.Įach Council Office has a staffer whose job is to work out their District’s sweep schedule with LA Sanitation. I promised to write a post about it, and here we are! 1 Part of the reason for the delay is that the story is really complex, so I’m just going to talk qualitatively about how encampments end up being targeted by Council Districts and leave the rest for another post or two.
A couple days ago it came out on Twitter that a lot of people in Los Angeles don’t understand how homeless encampment sweeps get scheduled and why, in particular how encampments to be swept are chosen.
