Before on Venice Way at Post Office.
A group of neighbors got together after “repeated late night and very early morning noise, frequent loud profanities, threats of firebombing of residents’ homes, frequent attempted break-ins and frequent thefts of items from residents’ yards,” according to the group. So they decided to beautify the area. They installed a couple planter boxes and then a brick was thrown thru one neighbor’s front window. The resolve doubled and more boxes were installed.
Unfortunately, this is what it’s come to. Any public property needs to be reduced to areas with widths no greater than about 4 feet to provide legal cover under the ADA to prevent encampments from forming.
