A notice nailed to a tree says San Jose will be conducting abatement of illegal encampments in this area and warns people that they are trespassing and must remove their property.

A coalition of groups which support the unhoused have teamed up to form a rapid response team to provide outreach during encampment sweeps.

City crews spent Monday clearing out San Jose's largest homeless encampment. The encampment sweep near Columbus Park comes despite strong objections from advocates over the unhoused, who said the city is offering little help to the 200 or so people being displaced.
