HomeMy WebLinkAboutCity of Diamond Bar - Homelessness & Encampment Response Information.msgGood morning Ms. Mier,
Thank you for taking my call. As discussed, I work for the City of Diamond Bar and collaborate with our Public Safety partners and service providers to respond to requests for homelessness
services and encampment response that takes place on City and private property.
It recently came to our attention that an individual has been physically encamped on City of Diamond Bar property at 21810 Copley Drive. LA County Fire responded to a report of a fire
at the rear of our property by the trash enclosure, and upon further inspection it appears there were burnt pieces of wood or logs as well as unburnt wooden pallets. The person(s?)
parked two vehicles at the rear of our property, and were in the process of setting up one or more encampments on the natural hillside separating City property from the adjoining parcel
at 21700 Copley Drive.
I bring this matter to your attention that way if you receive additional calls/questions/concerns from adjoining businesses, we can coordinate our response if it is a non-emergency situation.
The City works with a couple providers that can reach out for social and housing referral. We can also initiate the letter of agency process, whereby unauthorized persons on private
property can face removal.
If the matter is law enforcement related please have tenants contact the Sheriff’s Department directly at 909.595.2264, or 9-1-1 if an emergency.
Thank you in advance for your assistance and support.
Best,
Anthony
