The homeless encampment at the basketball courts continues every night. No, this is not closed. Oakalnd needs to do something to address this issue of people living in the park!

So five months and basically nothing's been done. Parks are not campgrounds, it's unhealthy, unsafe and against the rules. The homeless are not exempt from the laws, so stop acting like they are.
