San Bernardino to resume homeless encampment cleanups after agreement reached with ACLU

Homeless encampments in San Bernardino will once again be cleaned up but with new policies in place.

Thursday, October 3, 2024 6:13AMSAN BERNARDINO, Calif. --An injunction that prevented encampments from being cleared is now resolved after the city came to an agreement with homeless rights advocates.

The court injunction was the result of a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union, which accused the city of tossing out the personal property of homeless individuals. "We're asking the city of San Bernardino to follow their values and provide safe, affordable permanent housing because we all know that permanent housing is the solution to our unhoused," said Desiree Sanchez of the ACLU of Southern California.
