That trailer just keeps moving around. They have a car or do they push it.

Nobody wants to walk on that side of the street especially at night, the other concern I have is that they know what time we leave our homes and what time we return to them.

That's exactly why they should not be allowed to set up near any residential area where they see what's going on. It's not safe, but until Oakland wakes up out of a deep sleep, everyone has to watch out for each other to see that nothing happens.

32 illegal RVs and campers parked on Mandela Parkway from the Emeryville line to the West Oakland BART station. Our city leadership is shameful!!

We have no leadership, I'm convinced of that. It kind of makes u wonder why West Oakland is becoming a dumping ground. This is exactly why we do very little business in Oakland. Did u really count 32 RV's? I don't doubt it.

Yes, sadly I did count 32 between West Oakland Bart and Emeryville.

Wow, thanks for posting this. You'd think one city leader would read these , but I don't count on it.

Sadly most of the RVs have expired tags and can be legally towed. Any vehicle parked for longer than 72 hours is also subject to towing by OPD.

I called it in. FYI to neighbors, if they move you need to call non-emergency right away. If they feel they will get their 3 days in a place, they will not leave for good.

To be clear, I understand they may have few options, but long term street camping can't be one of them.
