Encampment Clean-up Partner Meetings and Pilot Program

City staff have held two partner meetings where resource providers, unhoused advocate groups, faith-based organizations and other community based organizations (CBOs) were invited to attend to discuss and partner with the City on establishing a process for continuing encampment clean-ups in the City, with their support. These meetings were held on April 10^th and April 17^th.

At the April 10^th meeting City staff provided an overview of the current encampment clean-up process (Administrative Rule 7.10), the direction from City Council regarding re-starting encampment clean-ups and discussed the various support services being provided in the community and which services are lacking. At the April 17^th meeting City staff provided a brief recap of the 4/10 meeting to new attendees, discussed and received feedback on the proposed encampment clean-up partnership pilot program and defined the “HOT Team” (Homeless Outreach Team) that will be key stakeholders in doing outreach, HMIS intake and providing services at encampment notice postings and days leading up to the clean-ups.

The current process and pilot program documents are in the documents section of this page.
