LA City Council looks into expanding a pilot plan to reduce RV encampments with a place to live – and $500.
The Los Angeles City Council this week signaled its interest in potentially expanding an unusual pilot program underway in the San Fernando Valley aimed at reducing the number of homeless people living in recreational vehicles that have popped up along city streets.
Piloted in Council District 7, the program was successful in removing 20 RVs off city streets and housing 25 homeless individuals, with another 12 enrolled and waiting for housing placement, between Feb. 1 and Sept. 15, according to Councilmember Monica Rodriguez. She represents Northeast San Fernando Valley communities including Sylmar, Pacoima, Sunland-Tujunga, North Hills and La Tuna Canyon.
“Angelenos have been rightfully concerned about RV encampments for years,” Rodriguez said. “This model housing placement and permanently removes, not relocates, the issues to other communities.” Often, the RVs block visibility for drivers on the road and leak sewage onto the streets. Additionally, there have been incidents in which heaters or propane inside the RVs caught fire.
