Clear and present danger to children at the elementary school and the park

Has anyone gone out to check this out and roust them.
Code enforcement, VPD, anyone?

Thank you for reporting! The Police Department's Community Service Section (CSS) has opened a case for this issue. CSS has one part-time and three full-time employees who are responsible for addressing all quality of life concerns, supporting Neighborhood Watch groups, and working with the Neighborhood Law Program and Code Enforcement to address distressed and dangerous properties.

If you witness any suspicious or criminal activity that requires an immediate response, please call 9-1-1.

Has this encampment been cleared yet?
It’s next to an elementary school!

No it is still there, there is more stuff. I saw lights lastnight, where they camp. Possibly lamps or a small campfire.

Neighbors should email the City Manager at city.manager@cityofvallejo.net complaining about this situation. The longer this persists, the greater the risk of more homeless moving in. This is not good for our neighborhood.

It amazes the complacency of residents living nearby and city officials regarding this.
This is NOT ok, it is next to an elementary school and with all the vegetation and dry glass, it’s a wildfire waiting to happen.
Has no one learned anything from the devastating wildfires over the last couple years.
We need a zero tolerance for camping in these areas.
Especially if a cooking/heating with flame or Barbecuing VPD should be alerted immediately and dispatched to completely remove illegal campers from the area.

Ah, yes, the risk of a fire is very real!. Neighbors, I implore you to call the VPD and write to the City Manager's office to deal with this issue as well as the illegal dumping issues. It would also be good if we asked for regular police patrols of the neighborhood.

encampments located and posted.
