City threatening to remove tents donated to Chicago's homeless
The story is misleading.... The city wants to clean the area, and are telling these people to move
the tents during cleaning and they can return after cleaning, read the
full story link above, here is the quote, "Full Statement from the City
of Chicago
These notices are to relay to owners of the property that there will be a
cleaning on the noted date. It is important to note that no resident is
being relocated as part of this project. Once our partners at the
Department of Streets and Sanitation (DSS) conduct the maintenance and
cleaning necessary for this location, individuals can return to their
location with their property.
These notices are posted at least 7 days in advance, and DFSS engages
with residents at encampments in the days leading up to cleanings to
connect individuals with shelter, housing, and other services."
