UPDATE: Roberts Lake Encampment

We’d like to share an update on the latest at the Roberts Lake Park and Ride lot.

 

To address the health and safety issues at the Roberts Lake Park and Ride lot, we closed the site to the public access today. The individuals who had been residing there have vacated the lot.

Through extensive collaboration with several service partners, we were able to provide shelter beds to every individual at the site today – and 24 people accepted a bed in a shelter.

 

The individuals who were residing at the Park and Ride have removed all of their personal belongings and the City has cleared most of the trash and debris from the site – and will finish doing so tomorrow morning. We have fenced off the lot and some of the adjoining land.

 

We want to express our sincere appreciation to the organizations who have helped us over the last month. This includes Catholic Charities, Rohnert Park’s Unsheltered Friends Outreach (UFO), Sonoma County Health Department, the City of Santa Rosa, the Committee on the Shelterless (COTS) in Petaluma, and the Drug Abuse and Alternatives Center.

 

Nos gustaría compartir una actualización sobre lo último en el lote Roberts Lake Park and Ride.

 

Para abordar los problemas de salud y seguridad en el lote Roberts Lake Park and Ride, hoy cerramos el sitio al acceso público. Las personas que residían allí han dejado el lote.

A través de una amplia colaboración con varios socios de servicio, pudimos proporcionar camas de refugio a cada individuo en el sitio hoy, y 24 personas aceptaron una cama en un refugio.

 

Las personas que residían en Park and Ride han retirado todas sus pertenencias personales y la Ciudad ha limpiado la mayor parte de la basura y los escombros del sitio, y terminará de hacerlo mañana por la mañana. Hemos vallado el lote y parte del terreno contiguo.

 

Queremos expresar nuestro más sincero agradecimiento a las organizaciones que nos han ayudado durante el último mes. Esto incluye Catholic Charities, Rohnert Park's Unsheltered Friends Outreach (UFO), el Departamento de Salud del Condado de Sonoma, la Ciudad de Santa Rosa, el Comité para Personas sin Refugio (COTS) en Petaluma y el Centro de Alternativas y Abuso de Drogas.
