Task force formed to relocate homeless encampments at risk of fire and flood in LA County
The Los Angeles County will create a task force to relocate homeless people from encampments near areas of high risk for fire or flood. Authored by supervisors Kathryn Barger and Hilda Solis, a motion approved by the board last week said homeless people often seek shelter on secluded hillsides or along waterways with risks of fire and flood.
