While LA Mayor says thousands of unhoused people have been brought inside and off the streets, residents tell NBC4's I-Team some are just being moved from one area to another and are left outside.The block of El Centro Avenue at the Hollywood Walk of Fame remains free of tents, nine months after LA's Inside Safe program dismantled an encampment there and offered motel rooms to the unhoused.
That's what Barry Glickstein says happened to him when he became homeless after a bitter divorce and ended up living in his RV near West Hills Hospital. The city has made a dent in the population living on the streets through Mayor Karen Bass' Inside Safe program, which has dismantled around 40 encampments and offered the unhoused their motel rooms with the promise of eventually getting apartments.
The video show two LAPD officers showing up, informing the woman that neighbors are complaining and telling her, 'You can't stay here.'" Circle Teams respond to non-emergency calls about the homeless and are supposed to refer them to housing and service options. "That is not a solution to the problem," says Allan Parsons, who lives in a house nearby. "The promise was for these outreach workers was to get them into housing, but they are woefully failing at that mission."
