KIRO 7 learned that the city reached out to people who were living in their cars, RVs and tents, to offer shelter.
One source close to the situation told KIRO 7 that the majority of people did not accept the offers for help and just moved to another location.
“What I’ve been seeing is, ah, criminal enterprise that lives down here, people that are not interested in following any rules, supporters that are supporting them — that they should be allowed to live here, and yet the neighborhood is suffering. Believe me,” said Melinda Jackson. “We pay taxes but we haven’t been heard for six years. How you like to live near this?”
