Five years ago, a federal appeals court in San Francisco upended homelessness policies in California and across the West. In a 2018 ruling against the city of Boise, Idaho, the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit said cities could not enforce local laws against outdoor camping if they did not provide enough shelter beds for people living on the streets .

Since then, the ruling in that case, Martin v. Boise, makes it extremely difficult for cities to clear encampments in the nine states under the jurisdiction of the Ninth Circuit. The decision has prompted state and local governments to address homelessness in new ways.

But billions in government spending have not yet solved the problem. And as tent cities have grown, political resistance has increased, even in cities dominated by liberal voters. Which brings us back to San Francisco.

In recent weeks, a related legal battle – the latest in a series – has sparked an uproar that went so far that San Francisco Mayor London Breed was at a rally outside the federal courthouse last month as homeless advocates demonstrated , of corpses called near.

Even some San Franciscans are confused by the excitement. Here are some frequently asked questions about the situation.

What's this about?

The Coalition on Homelessness, an advocacy group, filed a federal lawsuit a year ago claiming that enforcement of San Francisco's public camping laws was unconstitutional because the number of people sleeping rough – nearly 4,400 each night at the most recent count – is widening The number of available animal shelter beds has been exceeded. In December, a federal judge issued an emergency order temporarily banning enforcement of city laws against encampments, raising the stakes as winter approached.

What do the two sides say?

San Francisco officials say the city's homeless situation is fundamentally different than that in Boise. The city has spent billions of dollars on housing and services for the homeless and created thousands of emergency shelters and housing units. But many campers refuse to sleep in available beds, the city says. Local laws prohibiting sleeping outside only apply for about four hours a day, not around the clock.

Advocates for homeless San Franciscans say the city has made little real effort to provide adequate housing and has instead criminalized homelessness. The fight comes as the cost of living in California continues to rise and affordable housing remains scarce.

Why has the rhetoric increased now?

The city this summer asked the Ninth Circuit to change the federal judge's interim order. One day in late August in San Francisco, as a three-judge panel heard the arguments, city officials and housing advocates staged dueling protests outside.

Breed, who had just returned from a ceremony to open an Ikea store in a commercially fragile part of the city, called it “inhumane” not to move people out of the tent camps. “We found bodies,” she shouted. “We found a dead baby in these tents.”

The same day, Gov. Gavin Newsom — a former mayor of San Francisco — announced that the state would send cities and counties an additional $38 million to “clean up encampments,” accusing the courts of “causing costly delays.” .

How did tech executives get involved?

Two days later, Elon Musk and other tech personalities on homeless plaintiffs represent Bono. Newsom, who is not normally a friend of Musk, later said on X that Musk “raised a key issue” and that the federal courts were the problem.

The governor, a liberal Democrat who is widely considered a 2028 presidential candidate, told The San Francisco Chronicle that he was once so frustrated with legal decisions protecting camps that he considered approaching the judiciary directly to deal with complaints from the to be dealt with by the public. “I literally talked about putting up a big sign with the judge's phone number saying, 'Call the judge,'” he said.

Anthony York, a Newsom spokesman, compared the governor's current stance to his previous criticism of conservative federal judges who have sought to overturn gun controls in California – another group of “ideologues” whose decisions threatened public safety.

What's new?

It is unclear when the Ninth Circuit will rule on the city's full appeal of the injunction. But late Tuesday, the court denied the city's request for modification, clarifying that homeless campers who are offered housing can be asked to move.

The next written arguments in the lawsuit are scheduled to be filed later this month, and it is unlikely there will be a hearing before then. Still, the outcry, even from Democrats like Breed and Newsom, is a sign that political pressure is increasing to reconsider the jurisprudence that emerged from the Boise decision.

Breed is fighting for re-election in 2024 and her poll numbers are declining; Political rivals see a great chance of defeating them. Critics on both ends of the political spectrum accused Breed and Newsom of trying to shift responsibility for the homeless problem to the courts.

Where we travel

Today's tip comes from Joe Macpherson:

“One of the places we like to visit during a fishing trip to the Delta is Locke, also known as the Locke Historic District, an unincorporated community in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta on River Road. The 14-acre town was first founded as a Chinese community between 1893 and 1915. There are a few restaurants, gardens, shops, museums and Strange Cargo, a funky old bookshop which, if open, is worth a visit.”

And before you go, some good news

While the Strokes have become something of a shorthand for New York's downtown rock scene of the early 2000s, on the opposite coast, in Southern California, the group is enjoying a new fan base that is distinctly Californian.

Juicebox, Southern California's premier Strokes tribute band that draws enthusiastic multi-generational audiences, is leading something of a Strokes resurgence on the West Coast. The group's fans, as well as most of its members, are predominantly Latino.

As Eric Ducker wrote in the New York Times last week, the Strokes themselves have a large presence in Latin America, and it follows that Los Angeles, where more than 4.9 million people identify as Hispanic or Latino, has many Latino Strokes should have fans. But the band's particular appeal among first-generation Americans, Ducker writes, is also tied to their story of self-invention, an appealing message for those who have complicated feelings about their identity and the culture to which they belong.

“As people have moved away or outgrown certain subcultures or music scenes, it seems like in Los Angeles, Latinos have moved in to take the reins,” says José G. Anguiano, professor of Latina/o studies. said about the resurgence. “What's really cool is that they're taking the reins, not just in terms of being a fan, but fronting these tribute bands and producing their own music. They participate fully in these subcultures in every way.”

A San Francisco homeless man who camped across the street from a school displaying signs offering free fentanyl for new users and methamphetamine for stolen items is a convicted pedophile, records show. 

Joseph Adam Moore, 46, is camped opposite the Stella Maris Academy K-8 Catholic school on Geary Boulevard at Ninth Avenue. Convictions in Santa Cruz in the mid-’90s that are listed on the state’s registry of sex offenders say he was found guilty of forcible unlawful sex in 1997 and committed lewd acts with a child under 14 in 1996.

The Standard visited the encampment on Tuesday, and from under a drab gray dropcloth stretched over several bicycles and a motorcycle, a man came out and identified himself as Moore.

When asked about the signs, Moore said he had put them up a couple of days earlier and added that they had received a charged response.

“People have threatened my life,” Moore said. “They’ve driven by, told me to take the signs down and [asked] what am I doing in front of a school and a bunch of stuff.”

Peter Marlow, a spokesperson for the Archdiocese of San Francisco, said that he was aware of Moore’s encampment but hadn’t seen the signs he had posted.

“I noticed this person is well-established there. They disappeared about a month ago, and now they’ve shown up again,” Marlow said. “I had seen him for the past year before he disappeared, but now he’s back. I don’t know about these signs about fentanyl and all of this.”

Marlow expressed concern about Moore’s presence near the school but deferred to the city when asked about moving his tent.

“We don’t want anything of that nature anywhere near our schools, but we want to be able to work with law enforcement to establish the guidelines,” he said. “The school works with law enforcement and city officials to manage unhoused individuals who are perhaps too close to the students. It’s a frequent thing.”

Marlow said the school would be looking into Moore’s claims that he is selling drugs near the school. He said that police had come to the location multiple times.

A San Francisco police spokesperson said they could not find any incident reports for Moore’s campsite location and there was no arrest record for Moore within the last 90 days.

Convicted Pedophile

California’s Megan’s Law website lists Moore as a San Francisco transient convicted of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years of age in 1997 and released in 2002. San Francisco Superior Court Documents show Moore has been arrested five times in the city since 2007 for allegedly failing to re-register his address as a sex offender every 30 days. 

A Santa Cruz Sentinel article from 1997 reports Moore was convicted of molesting a 12-year-old girl in Santa Clara County before being released from custody and then having sex with a 15-year-old in Santa Cruz behind a set of bathrooms on Seabright Beach.

Moore’s most recent arrest on May 11 also accused him of committing a felony while on bail; The Standard was unable to obtain court records revealing what the felony was or what happened with the case. 

Moore claims his child sex offense conviction was due to a bad deal with the Santa Cruz County District Attorney’s Office. (Its spokesperson said Tuesday the office would not provide court records, saying they are exempt from disclosure). Moore said he was 19 and working at Apple at the time and was told that if he pleaded guilty, he would receive a lowered sentence that could be struck from his record if he stayed out of trouble for a year.

“Everything’s lies, and there’s no bigger lie than the justice system,” said Moore, who also displayed a sign that said police are corrupt.

When asked if he was actually selling drugs, he chuckled and said he was. 

“Yeah, this is actually happening,” Moore said, laughing. “But only because I’m tired. I’m tired. If you guys want to flush the whole world down the toilet, if you guys want to ignore people like me, it’s at your own peril. I mean, I’m a savant. You can’t f*cking fake that.”

Moore also said that he is the grandson of actor Don DeFore, who is known for his role in the 1950s sitcom The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet and was a friend of President Ronald Reagan.

A public records search suggested that Moore’s mother shares a name with DeFore’s daughter. Social media accounts also suggest he is related to DeFore.

The San Francisco Public Defender’s Office said it does not represent Moore in any active cases and could not comment.

By now. You may be familiar with the name Jordan Neely. Protesters in New York City have been chanting his name ever since the young Black man was put in a chokehold and died on a subway train earlier this month. They demanded the man who put Neeley in that chokehold be held accountable. And on Friday, after days of waiting, there was movement.

Manhattan District attorney’s office says they will charge 24 year old Daniel Penny with manslaughter.

Marine veteran Daniel Penny turned himself in to authorities and was arraigned on a charge of second degree manslaughter. Now, his attorneys say Penny risked his own life and safety for the good of his fellow passengers and could not have foreseen Neely’s death. However, a witness said Neeley didn’t hurt anyone and wasn’t armed. And we’ve since learned nearly was experiencing homelessness and mental health issues, shouting at passengers that he was hungry, thirsty and out of money.

If you didn’t have the intention of killing Jordan Neely, I believe that the least he did not have consideration for his life because he was poor, homeless and Black.

And Neely’s death has reignited a conversation about the overall crisis of homelessness in this country. Public intolerance for panhandling and tent cities is helping fuel a debate over safety and poverty in America’s largest cities. And that has advocates for the unhoused asking: does pushing the problem out of view actually solve the problem?

My guest this week is CNN’s Gabe Cohen. He’s going to take us to Phoenix, where a judge’s ruling to clear a huge homeless camp could provide a template for other cities, while leaving hundreds of vulnerable people in limbo. From CNN, this is One Thing. I’m David Rind.

Gabe, you’ve been reporting on the homelessness crisis in America, and I know we hear about it a lot. But can you just put it into perspective? How big of a problem is this?

So, David, it varies city to city, but there’s no doubt that homelessness, the crisis in this country has really exploded in recent years, especially coming out of the pandemic. So many cities right now are facing a housing crisis and more and more people are ending up on the street. Of course, so many of the images we’ve seen with regard to homeless encampments are in cities along the West Coast, cities like San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, which is home to Skid Row, the largest homeless encampment in the country.

And we’ve also seen homelessness become more polarized and politicized. More states are passing laws to ban public camping, really trying to clear it from public view. And so with all of that, in this context, that’s what brought us to Phoenix, a city that is really struggling to deal with the homelessness crisis there. It has now one of the largest homeless encampments in the United States in downtown Phoenix. But it’s about to be cleared out. And so we wanted to get on the ground in Phoenix to see what that looked like.

And so what did you find?

Good morning. How you doin?

So what we found is a massive, sprawling encampment about a mile long. Tents on just about every inch of sidewalk. Nearly a thousand people, right around 900, live in this encampment, which has been called “The Zone” by locals.

Why do you think most people end up here?

It’s different challenges, honestly. You’ll get so many different stories. Nobody’s story is the same.

And it popped up several years ago. But it has grown rapidly in recent years, along with the homeless population in the Phoenix area, Maricopa County. Homelessness there has grown 46% since 2019.

As they are struggling to create enough affordable housing for everyone. And housing prices have just skyrocketed across the Phoenix area, really across Arizona. And so we met so many people on the street and it gave us a much better sense of just how nuanced this issue is.

How long have you been here for?

About a year and just about a year.

And what happened? How’d you end up here?

I lost my husband. My husband passed away. So he was a head of household.

One of them was a woman named Rayann Denny, a 37 year old widow. She lost her husband last year. She said she ended up on the street in a tent because she couldn’t pay the bills by herself. Now she is dealing with addiction.

What would it take to get you out of this place? What do you need?

Really, just a stable, you know. I wouldn’t mind, you know, getting a job. But there’s very little, you know, resources to help me.

She does not want to be in a shelter, but she does want housing. She wants somewhere safe to be. And she acknowledged just how unsafe she feels inside this sprawling encampment. How are you feeling down here?

I don’t want to be here. I came down here to give me an apartment.

We also met a 73-year-old woman named Beatrice. She said her kids left her at The Zone, unable to afford to take care of her. And she is now in a shelter bed right next to this encampment, right inside the Human Services campus. That’s right next door.

You have social Security?

That’s all I got. I only get $800 a month. You can’t afford; you can’t live off of it. What can you do with $800 a month. Some people live off of $800 a week. I’m trying to go back to school, to get my GED, so I can get a job.

She told me that she gets about $800 every month in Social Security, and yet it is not enough to afford rent. And so she feels like her safest option is a shelter bed.

What you won’t hear from a lot of people. There is a feeling that this is a safe space. People acknowledge that there is human waste all over the ground. There is garbage everywhere. There are a lot of police calls to this area. There are fires frequently in this encampment. We watched a tent go up in flames while we were there on the ground. And so there is a lot of concern about safety in this area. And that gets to how local businesses and residents are feeling about this.

Right. What do residents say it’s been like living next to this encampment?

They’re struggling with it. And what we have seen is a massive pushback from business owners and residents who feel like this is a public nuisance and the city is not doing enough to deal with it. And so what we saw in Phoenix is a lawsuit filed by these neighbors of the camp that said that the city has not done enough, has not done its duty to abate the nuisance that is The Zone.

So what are you experiencing day to day? Talk me through. What, what’s happening here?

Oh gosh. Sure, sure. You know, and you never know what you’re going to experience. You know, we start on a monday morning with a knot in our stomach because we don’t know what we’re going to come up to at our business.

So two of the plaintiffs in this lawsuit against the city of Phoenix were Debbie and Joe Faillaci.

So it’s, it’s disgusting. That’s pretty much it. And it’s never ending.

It’s been they run a sandwich shop right near The Zone. They have tents right outside their property. They say they have been dealing with property damage, human waste on their property, people in crisis scaring their customers and their employees now, for years. The way they described it was a sense of lawlessness in this area. And they said they filed this lawsuit because they want to get their neighborhood back.

But then what’s the goal? You want it swept. You want it cleared. Like, what’s the.

Personally, I want it out of here.

We want our neighborhood back. We want to feel safe when we come to work. And we want our employees to feel safe when they come to work. We want our customers to feel safe when they come into our business.

And they won. The judge sided with them in this lawsuit and ordered the city of Phoenix to clear this camp in the next couple of months. It is a very unique situation. As I mentioned, we’ve talked about states that are passing laws to clear encampments. This was different. This was a lawsuit brought by residents and business owners who said enough is enough.

So people just not even waiting for laws. They’re saying this is a nuisance. I feel unsafe, my businesses being harmed. So get this out of here, basically.

Exactly. And so the question is, will more people in other cities say, let me file a very similar lawsuit and see if I can get a judge here to agree and force the city to clear the camp.

So now that a judge has ordered this camp to be cleared, what does that look like? Because you said that the shelter system was under strain in Phoenix. There’s just not really enough beds for these people. So where are these people supposed to go?

Yes. So that’s the question. There is a major shortage. And so the question is, where will these 900 or so people go when they’re cleared out at the peak of Arizona’s brutal summer heat?

We know that the city is saying they are going to go block by block and they’re going to try to offer services and a space for any person that they’re clearing out. But as of now, there just isn’t enough space. So the city says to try to meet that demand. They’re going to lease vacant buildings and hotel rooms as temporary shelters, and they’re going to try to build some sort of sanctioned campground with sanitation, with security, where people can go when they get cleared off the streets.

So it’ll still be outside, but it’ll be under the city’s purview.

Exactly. Exactly. And they’re not the first city to do this, but it is a controversial approach for several reasons. People are concerned with the idea of forcing people experiencing homelessness into a space like that. There are also concerns about who will turn down those services.

I don’t know if I would or not because I don’t know anybody that’s staying in a shelter right now.

Having spent time in The Zone, there are a lot of people who say they don’t want to go into a shelter.

So I don’t like that type of environment. I’d rather be, you know, how here where I could do, you know, what I do without being told what to do.

They want housing, but they’re not comfortable with the rules and the curfews that go along with a large shelter. And so there is major concern that people aren’t going to all accept these services. And what you’re going to have is a lot of people who are currently living on the street just moving down the road into other neighborhoods where we’re going to see more camps popping up, where they’re going to be more isolated from services, and they’re going to potentially be in more dangerous situations.

Like it’s out of view of the public eye. But the homelessness continues.

Exactly. It’s this concern about invisible homelessness. Advocates are saying this is just going to increase the amount of invisible homelessness in a city like Phoenix, where people are struggling in the shadows, where they can’t be seen. And what that could mean is more people get sick and end up in the emergency room, or perhaps more people even die. More than 700 people experiencing homelessness died in Maricopa County last year. That is a massively troubling number, especially as Phoenix tries to grapple with this problem that’s only growing. Last year, more people became homeless in the city of Phoenix, not less.

Wow. And broadening it out to other cities around the country that are dealing with similar problems. Is there any kind of long term fix here? Because when I listen to what you’re saying and to the conversations you’ve had with people in the zone, the thing that kind of runs through all of this to me is the idea of affordable housing and just the physical spaces that are not affordable to a big chunk of people in these vulnerable situations. So like, how are people grappling with this?

Well, you hit on it there. In short, most advocates will tell you a housing-first approach is the only proven approach to start making a dent in homelessness across this country, that we need to start building more housing now. And unfortunately, it’s been met with a lot of pushback in cities across this country. A lot of people who don’t want affordable housing in their area. And we know that most cities are just not building enough affordable housing right now. But you can’t build your way out of this with shelter beds. If the city does come in and sweep this place in the next couple of months, what does that means for you.

It’ll mean I have nowhere to live.

We spoke with a young woman named Stefanie Powell. She says she hasn’t been able to work in a while because of medical issues dealing with fibromyalgia, dealing with neuropathy, and she’s ended up in a tent inside The Zone.

I can see the emotion in your eyes talking about it. What is that?

Fear, anxiety, worry. I don’t want to wind up having to walk the streets again.

She fears as the city comes to clear the camp that she’s going to end up roaming the streets again as she did when she first ended up homeless. She fears that that’s going to leave her in a far less safe situation.

Just because you clean out an area doesn’t mean that you wipe the problem away. It’s still there.

She feels that this initiative to clear away the camp is not to fix homelessness, not to help people like her, but simply to make them less visible, simply to push them to areas where the problem won’t be seen.

We’re not all strung out on drugs. I know several people who live out in these tents who have jobs, legitimate jobs, but the cost of living is just too high for us.

She told me. Help us find housing. Help us find somewhere where we can stay permanently. We don’t want to live in this situation, but at this point it feels to her like it’s falling on deaf ears.

The post Does Clearing Homeless Camps Simply Lengthen the Disaster? – CNN One Factor appeared first on DAILY SAN FRANCISCO BAY NEWS.

SAN FRANCISCO – San Francisco is paying $ 16.1 million to feed and house people in tented villages as the city grapples with a growing homeless population. But the cost worries some lawmakers.

Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, six tent sites, known as “safe sleeping villages”, have been set up to protect people who might otherwise be sleeping on the sidewalks.

More than 300 people are currently accommodated in the 262 tents, some of which are free. The villages also offer access to bathrooms, meals, and 24-hour security, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Thursday.

Funding is only a fraction of the more than $ 300 million the city spends annually on homeless services, and the average nightly cost is less than what the city pays for a hotel accommodation program for the homeless, so the chronicle.

However, the federal government cannot reimburse the tenting program. Some lawmakers say the program is too expensive, especially when the city faces a projected budget deficit of $ 650 million over the next two years.

“It’s breathtaking and we need to understand why that is,” said supervisor Rafael Mandelman. “We have to find a way to get off the streets. But we need them to be cheaper. “

The program is funded from state and municipal funds and revenue from a 2018 business tax.

The city had to rush to create shelters as indoor spaces were closed to the homeless due to COVID-19 concerns, Abigail Stewart-Kahn, interim director of the homeless section, said at a budget committee hearing on Wednesday.

The city didn’t have time for a more thorough bidding process and also had to provide water and electricity connections for the sites that are on vacant lots, Stewart-Kahn said.

“I understand the motivation to create (safe) sleeping space during this COVID-19 crisis,” said supervisor Ahsha Safaí. “But we have to dive really deep to see if this is a sustainable model … with no federal reimbursement.”

Stewart-Kahn said her department is analyzing the program.
