Gov. Gavin Newsom just issued an executive order directing state officials to move quickly to start clearing encampments, and is directing certain state agencies to provide guidance for cities and counties to do the same.
Mr. Newsom’s executive order directs officials to immediately start clearing homeless encampments from state property, especially those encampments that pose imminent threats to “life, health, safety, or infrastructure.” For encampments that do not pose a danger to the public, officials are required to post a notice to vacate at least 48 hours before sweeps begin.
His order follows the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling that overturned the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision.
