Homeless people have erected a ramshackle encampment on a no man’s land across from the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon – creating an eyesore for the nearby upscale enclave’s residents who don’t know where to turn to for help evicting them.hey have complained to the city up to 40 times about the dwellings, which have sprouted across from their condo over the past six years.
A woman who identified herself as Paula told the outlet that she has been living near the Daimler Truck North America headquarters “off and on about a year-and-a-half.” It is unclear if the city of Oregon, the local county, the deep-blue state, the US government or private owners control the shoreline property.“Pretty much everyone comes back and says that they don’t have jurisdiction because it’s Union Pacific — it’s a railroad,” condo owner Ric Scaramella said.“Pretty much everyone comes back and says that they don’t have jurisdiction because it’s Union Pacific — it’s a railroad,” Scaramella told the outlet.
Oregon Department of State Lands spokesperson Ali Ryan Hansen said in a statement: “The bad news is, at this point, it’s hard to say if we have a role. Where public ownership of the riverbed/bank ends and upland ownership begins is complicated.”
