There seems to be a new tent everyday and more garbage. Please tell these people this is not a campground or trash dump and get them out of there. Also trash on the corner of 8th and Castro across the street.

For anyone else concerned. Please also file a Cal Trans Maintence request here.

Perhaps if enough of us file these, Cal Trans will take care of the issue.
