PHOENIX — The city of Phoenix has successfully cleared out a massive downtown homeless encampment by Saturday's court ordered deadline by helping more than 500 people find beds in shelters and motels.
“I was staying with a friend in a tent but he's now gone to a shelter,” said Lily Bitsui, 33, who looked a bit lost. Bitsui said she was not around when city workers were offering to help people find a place to stay inside. A city statement said 21 people are now staying at the site, which will have portable restrooms and showers, meal service, property storage, security and a resident code of conduct. Drugs, alcohol and fires are prohibited and camping will not be allowed along the sides of the property.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Scott Blaney in October denied city officials' request for an extension on cleaning up the encampment known as “The Zone,” and reiterated his order that they get the job done by Saturday. A hearing is scheduled for Nov. 30 to verify that Phoenix complied with the November deadline.
