Homeless camps continue, despite lip service from city officials
As you cross the intersection westbound on novato blvd at diablo, be sure to wave hello to the guys camping against the poor neighbor's creekside fence. Situated for easy access to the shopping center for dumpster offerings, the running water of the creek for bathing, and perhaps the occasional glimpse of a teenager walking by in tight clothing, these men have made their preference known for this area. I don't know why the neighbors on Los Alondras put up with it. I would have run them off long ago. Perhaps they are senior citizens. The homeless have a number of baskets and miscellaneous items stacked up there, right among the signage for community activities , etc. What a sight to greet our visitors from out of town! Despite numerous requests of the mayor in his blog, we have yet to see action on this troubling situation, a blight on our community. We were simply informed that he attended some type of meeting, conference or public appearance with coffee and pastries.
