Sacramento eyes new tent site in River District, sparking concern over homeless overload ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

People in Sacramento's River District are saying, "Enough is enough."

Strecker lives in the area and represents local businesses. He said there are 526 currently in the district, the highest concentration in the entire region.

Businesses complain that the over-concentration is hurting the neighborhood.

Now, city leaders are considering adding an additional tent camping site with 100 new beds on a vacant land along Bannon Street.

Phil Pluckebaum represents the neighborhood on the city council.

Strecker said that the proposed new tent camping site goes against a 1989 city resolution, signed by Mayor Anne Ruden, to ban placing any more homeless shelters in the area.

Three other sites will also be considered at next Tuesday's city council meeting, and the city will also discuss charging homeless people a fee to stay in long-term shelters.
