After the city began clearing the area, some people from the encampment simply packed their things and moved to nearby Columbus Park. Right now, it seems the city is allowing them to stay there.
David Koehler says he has a plot at the Guadalupe community garden near San Jose’s Columbus Park, and he’s concerned about the number of RV’s he sees on nearby streets.
Koehler says the RVs have simply moved from one side of the street to the other since the city began clearing the encampment. "Not everybody out here has mental issues, for one thing. There are people on this street that go to work during the day. There are nice people out here and then at the same time it’s unsafe."
"There is no affordable housing. That’s why there’s so many RVs and people. It’s sad," said Cheryl Imus, who owns an RV and parks it near Columbus Park.
