#homelessness #riskmanagement #riskmanager #publicsafety #publicsector I am thinking about coordinating a Panel on the Topic of Homelessness for Public Entity Risk Managers. My most recent interest in the topic is due to the Homeless Encampment Fire that led to the closing of the 10 fwy. The Damage to and repair cost of public infrastructure; loss of revenue to local businesses; the time and impact of Los Angeles Commuters were all extreme. Some of the questions I am interested in exploring are: 1. What Type of City Resources do you have to support the Homeless? Do you have both PD related outreach and NonPD outreach supported by City Dollars? 2. Has Homelessness gotten worse with the recent Migration Crisis? Are your resources being stretched thin for your city's native poor and homeless due to the Migrant Crisis? 3. After the homeless encampment fire under the 10 Fwy in Los Angeles, do you think we should pursue statewide legislation to prevent homeless encampments under and near important infrastructure that will provide our local PD tools for enforcement and removal of such encampments? Would you be interested in this as a roundtable discussion? Do you have other questions about homelessness that you would like to include? Please let me know in the comments below!

Joe Frank Rodriguez count me in! I’m interested to see how others are coordinating resources.
The 10 Freeway fire resulted from Caltran failing to manage their property that they leased to someone who subleased the space. The fire hazard was known to be present for years.
I read an article today somewhere that there are a large amount of them ( the article said hundreds) living at the San Diego Airport

9moThe homeless problem is due to our drug crisis issue. The laws favor the thieves and drug dealers which ultimately hurts the community. Several drug rehabs have been caught on video passing out crack pipes to the homeless
