The incident is one example of the conflict over how city officials are responding to the homelessness crisis that is affecting municipalities across California.
A camp of people living in tents stands along the Mahon Creek Path in San Rafael, Calif., on Friday, Sept. 8, 2023. A Marin County Superior Court judge has granted a preliminary injunction blocking a San Rafael business from blaring music overnight toward a camp of homeless people.
In his order, Sweet said the defendants did not contest the plaintiff’s accusation “that the sole purpose of this behavior was to make being at Camp Integrity intolerable to its residents.” The incident is one example of the conflict over how city officials are responding to the homelessness crisis that is affecting municipalities across the state.
Neighbors of the Mahon Creek camp say they are distressed and that more needs to be done to make the community feel secure. “We have experienced a wide range of issues with inhabitants of the encampment that have threatened our safety and impeded our business,” Ress said.
