Debris, defecation and needles left by homeless campers are creating an eyesore and public health risk, say neighbors and businesses near the high-speed rail property on Golden State Boulevard.
Amber Hillman, who lives across the street and railroad tracks from the vacant lot turned campsite, said she’s contacted High Speed Rail Authority about the nuisance, but nothing has been done.
“This is our town,” she said. “I live here, and to drive by this everyday, I kind of feel like we’re in the middle of nowhere camping or something when really it’s simply a vacant field.”
Over the last couple months, dozens of homeless people have moved onto the property. Police presence isn’t unusual. There’s been reports of shootings and stabbings.
