Weekly Homeless Encampment Cleanup at Venice Beach
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 มิ.ย. 2023
- On Friday, June9, 2023, the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, in collaboration with Clean Harbors Environmental Inc., conducted a cleanup operation at Venice Beach to address the homeless encampment. To ensure safety, sanitation workers wore white hazardous materials suits as part of the protocol. LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) was also present, offering homeless outreach during the operation.
The motivation behind this operation was the significant health and safety concerns posed to both the unhoused individuals and the general public. Many of the unhoused individuals were using the restrooms as living spaces, necessitating the cleanup.
The cleanup involved two separate waste management teams with different roles working together. The City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, identifiable by their yellow safety vests, and Clean Harbors Environmental Services Inc., identifiable by their orange safety vests. The Clean Harbors team began by sorting through the garbage to identify, collect, and segregate hazardous waste items such as batteries, urine, syringes, and more. Once the hazardous waste was collected, the sanitation workers from Los Angeles Public Works took over to collect the remaining garbage.
In order to ensure the safety of all individuals involved and secure compliance from the unhoused population, Los Angeles Park Rangers maintained a constant presence throughout the duration of the cleanup operation, which aimed to preserve cleanliness and hygiene in the area.
The City of Los Angeles has been actively addressing the homelessness issue, and the Venice Beach cleanup is just one part of their ongoing efforts. It is important to recognize that these cleanups do not offer a solution to the larger issue of homelessness. The City of Los Angeles is actively working on implementing long-term solutions to address the root causes of homelessness and provide necessary resources.
In summary, the cleanup of homeless encampments in Venice is a significant step towards improving public health and safety. It also aims to restore the restrooms to their intended use. The City of Los Angeles remains committed to addressing the homelessness issue in the area and will continue its efforts towards long-term solutions.

The mayor of Coronado in San Diego county does a great job of keeping people from living in public spaces. People live like this in Santa Monica and Los Angeles because they know they can.
Let's put some hurt into the mayor of Coronado for serving elitists who have kept the money amongst themselves.
I wish our mayor had a backbone. He is totally useless and so are our district representatives. He has served two terms and hasn’t done crapp but give the citizens of Sacramento FALSE HOPE! Yea we are the capitol of California and our city looks like a third world slum.
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS REALLY GOING HERE?
Look closely at what these homeless have in their possession! You can see that EVERYTHING they have is brand-new. Do you know why the chairs they are sitting on, the tents they are sleeping in, the sleeping bags they have, the very comfortable foam rubber cushions they sleep on, the coolers, the water jugs including the suitcases are all brand-new?!
It’s because Los Angeles has a poverty welfare system of making sure that each and every homeless gets between $500 and $800 CASH per month including food stamps, free medical, free psychological counseling and anything else they need.
And did you notice how ALL of the freeloader vagrants (or whatever you wish to call them) living in camps on the beach sand were NOT upset or aggravated about having their nice new camping stuff thrown in the trash can by the city Sanitation Department?
And can you guess where most of those freeloaders vagrants (or whatever you prefer to call them) are doing right now after they just had their recently purchased items (mentioned above) thrown in the dumpster by the city sanitation department? They are walking over to the nearest ATM machine, withdrawing hundreds of dollars that taxpayers gave them and then are heading to the exact same stores they purchase their stuff from last week and repurchasing the same stuff again.
And then, beginning the very next morning, they will move back onto Venice Beach sand and set up their temporary camp all over again. And this cycle keeps repeating hundreds of times per year for each of those freeloaders vagrants (or whatever you wish to call them) with absolutely no end in sight.
So that also means each and every one of them have absolutely no incentive or reason to get serious and focused on learning to work to pay their way.
Also, during the last 20 years and probably longer than that, the Los Angeles city good-hearted city officials with blank checks from Los Angeles and Venice taxpayers have tried hundreds of different times simply providing Venice and Santa Monica beach area freeloaders, vagrants and mental cases with free apartments, free cell phones and service, free furniture including a brand-new TV set (with remote control, of course), a very generous amount of food stamps per month and some extra spending cash.
And do you know what the vast majority of them did eventually do? They simply left the apartment and moved back onto either Venice or Santa Monica beach because that’s where they want to live. They DON’T want to live in a normal society of apartments and neighbors and traffic. They just want to do what they want to do and when they want to do it and where they want to do it and there is absolutely NOTHING can be done to fix that problem.
And YES I know exactly what I'm talking about. And if you don't believe it then research it for yourself.
And, if you haven't yet figured it out, this problem will NEVER be resolved and will just keep getting worse and worse no matter how much money, care and love you throw at it !
Try to do this homeless camping in Redondo Beach, Newport Beach, pffft!.
And they show up in OB,PB,Balboa Park.That isn't leadership, it's passing the problem on to other communities. By the was Coronado is the Huntington Beach of San Diego, white,elitist and Reich wing.
The guy laying in his piss who has the solution, priceless.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
What I find crazy is how much stuff some of these people drag around with them. This proves God and government do not care.
No. That is the definition of stupidity.
That’s the definition of government bureaucracy.
@@misshippi971 I agree, if they spent the money on getting some affordable housing and mental health, most of the problems would go away . Instead of having so many cops and city workers standing around for the most part.
@@froste7952 God does care. He sent social workers to ask these people if they want help. A motel room, food, cell phone and other services until an apartment is available. Then that gets paid for including other perks. Most of the people chose not to get help.
The video quality on these videos are really good.
I went to that beach and its sad with all those rich people living their and you can't even sit on the beach because of all those homeless people
I do believe there are a lot of honest working people out in that area missing a lot of bicycles ... ?
No, you got it wrong. They simply go out and buy another bike because they can easily afford to from the welfare cash that is given to them every month which includes about $200 in food stamps.
Please allow me to explain further:

Working with the homeless seems like a mentally exhausting job (and thankless job to boot) 😒😣.
I honestly don’t approve of my tax dollars being used for this

I saw a video of this same spot a year ago and there were homeless tents every were. It looks much better now. Keep it that way. Keep kicking them out and they will get the drift and not come back. Lets do this with the rest of LA as well. Clean it up!!! Bring back the pride that was once California.

Park Rangers, Cops and cleaners are all so patient with these Homeless people. A huge proportion of them have more possessions on wheels than any hoarder. It seems to be a game where you get evicted once a week and then just come back?
Patient or useless
Especially when their being recorded 24/7!!
😂
Wack a Mole!
I never understood why they have so many possessions and no real place to put it.
So glad someone has grown a pair and has started to take the beaches back. We visited here last summer and were shocked at the blatant drug dealing right in front of us while we were trying to have a great day and a meal. You just can't defund the police department and think that it's going to be ok! No means No! Nobody wants to be the den mother, but it HAS to be done! Not saying no is saying yes! Better living through irritation. Irritate them enough and they will go else ware. Have you ever been to Yellowstone Park and seen the signs that say "DONT FEED THE BEARS" Same thing with humans and for the EXACT same reasons!

This was happening way before police started being defended . Lol people quick to blame anything on the defending movement.
The police are not being defunded, that's a lie
DID YA ? GET ANY!
These park rangers are commissioned law enforcement officers, and not stage properties. So, get them guns for crying out loud. That job is dangerous, and they are supposed to defend themselves with “sticks” (batons) when the sh*t hits the fan? Ridiculous! The city needs to better take care of their own.
firemen too
The guy with the tandem trolleys might be able to fly under the radar if he had gone to only one trolley.
Free housekeeping leave needles and trash let us clean up and you can come back tonight
Lol that crew fiddling with the fences is worthless 😂
The definition of trying to look busy while doing SFA..
The one with the cracked frame they literally put in the garbage truck to compact, what a waste they should have it repaired, you would think there would be somebody tasked with repairing fences and the like, I'd say there is a lot of unnecessary waste.
You see that now looking for another area and tomorrow the same thing again expend the taxes from hard work people.
So sad, dont know what the answer is. I was almost there but thank god i was still mentally stable enough to accept the help and AA
The answer is asylum or jail until drug free
It's from not enforcing the nuisance laws...loitering, theft, littering, cleanliness, etc
Have a nice weekend SMCU 🤙
Thank you to all the people working to clean this up. All to often looked at as just a job. This has many aspects other than cleaning to deal with. We appreciate you all.
YOU FAMILY OF NAZI CHRISTIAN LEADER? JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY
THEY'LL SEND YOU A CHRISTMAS AND EASTER CARD! I'M SURE. FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT, MONEY BETTER. SEND THEM A CHECK.
Just keep writing our congressman Ted Lieu to resolve the homeless encampments ✍️
Highly that won't happen in California as any Congressman cares about fixing this problem in this state.
Clear out the restrooms by force before sundown, lock up the restrooms with iron gates and put security guards at each location, problem solved.
YEAH! YOUR PEOPLE, NEED JOBS.
HEY! STUPID HANDLE.
Thank you for all of their hard work A + report card law enforcement, health department & sanitation . 👀♥️💯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 It would be wonderful to see clean all of counties and cites in LosAngeles.
And what happens to the people. ???? They are homeless and drug addicted. That's a product of the drug trade and economy and your solution is take away what comfort they have....it's the govt which provides them with needles and crack pipes and it's the council's that don't put out enough bins for the refuse.
THAT'S YOUR FAMILY ? RIGHT.
Make the Beach beautiful again
Why no security or guards on streets,restrooms,beach 24 hours? Cameras. Move homeless to the country. And build homes that they pay for workig. No drugs or alcohol
They need to agree, are you going to bring the needles and drugs along, or just kidnap them, lol
tolle Arbeit der park Ranger die Sie leisten genau so wie ihr vom Reinigungs Team und der police officerin und officern macht weiter so ein ende ist ja anscheinend noch nicht in sicht und die obdachlosen brauche hilfe. ich schaue gerne euche Videos mir an
die sind nicht obdachlosen, sondern kranke leute.
What's with telling them they'll clean it up and t hen they can go back in?😊
To have ocean front property you have to have a million $ or be homeless.
AIN'T THAT SOMETHING. HEY! WHAT A COUNTRY, HUH.
Poor old lady. She definitely don't need to be homeless and in the streets. Family anywhere?
The fencing could have been recycled or reused.
That’s what I was thinking. Too lazy, or no common sense. Lol😂
Meh likely a hepatitis or aids risk, they probably have to throw it out for safety
Can we stop giving these people names like: homeless, unhoused..... These people are mentally ill and or drug addicts. No reason to sugar coat it!
homeless is not a euphemism
Some are mentally ill and / or drug addicts who are also homeless.
@user-pm4xu6bl9y Bet you think you sound intelligent.
Son personas que no hicierôn bièn sus vidas desde la niñez y son unos inpedernidos ociosos nò conocieròn la palabra trabajo?
They are not homeless, they have a home. And it is the public right-of-way. They are exactly where they want to be, doing exactly what they want to be doing.
Somebody explain to me how this people can moves much stuff over night.
I was wondering the same thing. Crazy .

Clean up da sh*t Friday.
So when they cleanup where do the people go? And do they ever pressure wash those restrooms??
So they only clean it once a week? That means if I come Monday I have until Sunday to stay there then they clean it and I can come right back for another 6 days unbothered 👀 why am I paying rent again?
The black guy should be the Mayor
Here we go again.
I agree they should post signs no camping on the beach and surrounding areas,plus no camping out in rest rooms. They are a mess with graffiti etc. Have to stipulate no camping in specific areas.
“Here we go again on our own… 🎶 going down the only boardwalk we’ve ever known!” 🎸🎶
🤨🧐 You guy’s just don’t get it. You have to make this at least a Quattro* deal a week! Or ….. 😂
Let’s start a go fund me for these hard working people to give them incentives to keep showing up to work. This is disgusting, life threatening, disease ridden trash that they have to deal with. Whenever you think you’re having a bad day at work, remember it can get worse. Let’s as a group start a plan to compensate these hero’s.
Tis Friday. I remember the guy with the car topper from last video from hotel bathrooms. Not that blk guy again..gawd hes everywhere. And there he goes again. Talk talk talk just to slow clean up and ppls work flow. Damn
He seems to have more stuff.
19:30 this guy would be a great salesman, wasted talent. gift of the gab
Refuse to vacation in Cali. Because of this garbage and I live one state away. Now I fly across country to North or South Carolina where the beaches are beautiful and there are no homeless and mentally ill people doing drugs and talking to themselves. I feel much safer and can really enjoy the beaches without worrying about getting assaulted.
👍
Its the green truck! Shit!
Hola buenas tardes saludos deste yucatan solo es por la jente qué sufer mucho con ese problema es todo el mundo ya eso es depende de cada gobernador como manejar el problema mi opinión es todos los que tienen esproble qué el gobierno los yebe en un centro rebilitacio y después contar a los familiares para ayudarles con su tratamiento
Just tell him to pack it up and move are your going to put him to work he will run so fast
Need designated facilities for addicted, mentally ill and houseless.
Where do I apply for a Park Ranger position?
Never ended😂🎉😢😮😅
They should make the homeless help clean up their own shit. Amazes me how much stuff they haul around all the time.
YEAH! MOM STILL HANDLING THAT STUFF, FOR you !
Every week, it's the same old, same old. A few faces change but the story line doesn't.
most of those homeless are able to work if they wanted to they are young enough
Throw all their crap away !!!
YEAH ! SO YOU CAN DIG IT OUT OF THE TRASH! AND SELL THE STUFF AT YOUR NEXT GARAGE OR YARD SALE! RIGHT. MONEY -MONEY -MONEY! WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO GET YOUR'S.
Seeing more homeless people in my town in Texas also, the cops don’t let it get as bad as it is in California though. Glad I never had the desire to go to a California beach or CA in general!
We are glad you dont come as well
So now the homeless guys has solutions and suggestions on how things should be done, SMH
Actually, his ideas are better than what is going on now...and won't cost near the amount. I see at least 8 employees standing around with their hands in their pockets and the rest of them leisurely cleaning...and this happens daily or weekly. Thousand of dollars of your taxes. This man needs to be the mayor of the homeless. He'll get it done!
@@JennaTelia824 It takes that many from time to time and they get a break now and then. They clean all day, this homeless man doesn't want to work at anything, just sponge off the city.
NOT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, MOVE THEM TO ENCINO........
Hey, this is German In Venice's job. What's going on?
NOW! HOMELESSNESS IS PART OF THE SOCIAL LADDER . SOCIAL LADDER . SOCIAL LADDER . SOCIAL LADDER . SOCIAL LADDER . SOCIAL LADDER ! ! ! ! ! !
So where do all of these folks go?...
Back where they came from, they didn't spontaneously congeal on the beach
All that fencing could have been donated !
Unfortunately this is just a reoccurring event once a week/month! The forgotten person just packs up what they can and move to another beach location.
Daily viewer
Get, and hold, a job, just like we did bub.
I ❤️ California. 🆘
There for the grace of God go you or I. It is so sad to see this.
The beaches south of Huntington Beach in Orange County and San Diego County are decent for families... LA County beaches are hellholes (except the private beaches in Malibu, Pacific Palisades, Palos Verdes, eg). The only decent towns in LA County are off the 210 from La Canada/Flintridge all the way to San Dimas, the towns by Magic Mountain off the north 5 (Newhall, Valencia, Santa Clarita, Castaic, eg) and of course the ones in the mountains (Big Bear, eg).
@48:50 gotta give credit to that artwork though from The Lost Boys
Down on your luck, DON't visit Santa Monica Beach ! 💀 🇺🇲
That's Venice Beach, OPPs !
Less talk more action 1. "Okay let's go and non of this "I have no place to go", This is free land",
"I'm waiting for the gov to give me a hand", so let's go up and out you need a place to live go live in the desert plenty of space there.
The black man who broke his ribs seems cool they should help him get housing.
Yea he is I like watching him. We should start a gofundme for him
I suspect these attempts to clean the joint up (over and over and over) is well over 5 million USD p.a.
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS REALLY GOING HERE?
Look closely at what these homeless have in their possession! You can see that EVERYTHING they have is brand-new. Do you know why the chairs they are sitting on, the tents they are sleeping in, the sleeping bags they have, the very comfortable foam rubber cushions they sleep on, the coolers, the water jugs including the suitcases are all brand-new?!
It’s because Los Angeles has a poverty welfare system of making sure that each and every homeless gets between $500 and $800 CASH per month including food stamps, free medical, free psychological counseling and anything else they need.
And did you notice how ALL of the freeloader vagrants (or whatever you wish to call them) living in camps on the beach sand were NOT upset or aggravated about having their nice new camping stuff thrown in the trash can by the city Sanitation Department?
And can you guess where most of those freeloaders vagrants (or whatever you prefer to call them) are doing right now after they just had their recently purchased items (mentioned above) thrown in the dumpster by the city sanitation department? They are walking over to the nearest ATM machine, withdrawing hundreds of dollars that taxpayers gave them and then are heading to the exact same stores they purchase their stuff from last week and repurchasing the same stuff again.
And then, beginning the very next morning, they will move back onto Venice Beach sand and set up their temporary camp all over again. And this cycle keeps repeating hundreds of times per year for each of those freeloaders vagrants (or whatever you wish to call them) with absolutely no end in sight.
So that also means each and every one of them have absolutely no incentive or reason to get serious and focused on learning to work to pay their way.
Also, during the last 20 years and probably longer than that, the Los Angeles city good-hearted city officials with blank checks from Los Angeles and Venice taxpayers have tried hundreds of different times simply providing Venice and Santa Monica beach area freeloaders, vagrants and mental cases with free apartments, free cell phones and service, free furniture including a brand-new TV set (with remote control, of course), a very generous amount of food stamps per month and some extra spending cash.
And do you know what the vast majority of them did eventually do? They simply left the apartment and moved back onto either Venice or Santa Monica beach because that’s where they want to live. They DON’T want to live in a normal society of apartments and neighbors and traffic. They just want to do what they want to do and when they want to do it and where they want to do it and there is absolutely NOTHING can be done to fix that problem.
And YES I know exactly what I'm talking about. And if you don't believe it then research it for yourself.
And, if you haven't yet figured it out, this problem will NEVER be resolved and will just keep getting worse and worse no matter how much money, care and love you throw at it !
where is Daisy?
If other States took care of their homeless we wouldn't have this big of an issue.
They wouldn't want to be in the cold states, beaches are such an attraction, warm sun
Like you take care of yours it is and issue that no one seems to be able to fix
@@myrtleborodziuk7163 we definitely do.
Why they don't back where came from just abuse the system.
Edit: Why don't they go back from whence they came? They abuse the system.
Forced Labor is the only solution.
Mandatory shelters. No exception to camping on the beach or streets.
If a state keeps allowing drug use then nobody is going to
Want to get better or get a job to work for something better
To live there give them jobs to clean up the beach in return.
❤️🐕😇🙏🇺🇸🙏😇🐕❤️
Total insanity. Clean it up then they move back in. Every week the same thing over and over. No wonder so many people are moving out of California.
Build new restrooms toilets. And time line. 5-10 min in toilet. Then you must come out. Now it is not working. If homless live in toilets. And no for people to sleeping in beach or streets. Give them job that they can rent a aparment,house. Nobody wants to go those toilets if homeless people live in it. Are toilets clean? Lock the toilets for night and clean them. Cleaning many times a day 24 hours every day. Now it looks like a big problems over there. And many people must clean hours. Dont you have home for homeless people and old people,mental illness people,drug people, alcohol people.
👮🏼♂️Hey you! Yeah I’m talkin to you! Times up, let’s go! No, leave your shit - we’re throwing it away. You too sweetheart. Come on, the two of ya. Out! 👉🏻
If they locked the bathrooms n put outhouses at least, they cant take up residence in them.
Why is it these people can ramble on forever about nothing. And someone sleeping on cardboard is gonna lecture about knowing it all.😂
These homless folks have the same constitutional rights as anyone of us and theres thousands even working homless looking for a place to live and to top it off L.A. metro has one of the largest populations in the country, lots of money, generous people, and perfect weather- now where would you go if you god forbid became homless? Some broke ass red state like Mississippi or Kentucky or sunny California?......EXACTLY!! Yes, I also understand this issue is gross and disgusting- but this is where we are at.
Yes, Id go to Mississippi and get a job and save for a cheap house that I COULD CALL MY OWN. I did exactly what you described - It's called self-respect and self preservation.
How about giving them somewhere to live just a thought
Like the migrants (probably almost half are illegal with criminal backgrounds and insane evil people) who are getting treated better than the average US 🇺🇸 citizen? And actually KICKED out Veterans from their Hotel rms in NYC/etc for those aliens 😂sry I’m mad, to live free instead!!! Take care.✌🏼Have a blessed weekend.
@Robert Hudgins it’s a basic human right to have shelter and food
If you inconvenience society enough you get a free house to also destroy, great president to set.
@@o0mrsreaper0omia83i agree with the other guy, your place, I am sure you would enjoy the company, they probably wouldn't enjoy living with you though unless you supplied the drugs and alcohol
Ok Karen
I hope you have something that rakes the sand. You need something that can sterilize it too. Imagine how many people just used it right on the beach.
Right it's one big litter box lol
Government should build huge hospitals for these people. They have mental illnesses and drug abuse and addiction. It’s hard to fix these people. It’s shame on the government that can’t fix these problems. USA is a great country and richest nation on the earth. We spend billions dollars on weapons, but we are reluctant to spend for the homelessness. 😢😢😢
They do, they don't go, and they can't be forced
They need to want to go to these hospitals or would you kidnap them, against the law
Why can they get jobs and small studio so they can lift up themselves to be better, they look healthy and capable physically. Don't give up work and do while you still can, before all your strength is taken away
They wouldn't work, it's a lifestyle choice not a systemic failure.
Drugs, you must never been around the drug culture
A studio apartment? In that neighborhood, you’re looking at $2K per month. Rent is expensive in LA- period.
Imagine if the Spanish conquistadors were to land of the coast of Venice Beach, they'll say they have landed in a uncivilized society
They would have put them to work as slaves, that would've been great!.
In fairness, its very improved from 2 yrs ago.
Nope
@Aye O do you live there? 2 yrs ago the videos were much worse.
THIS IS BETTER THAN AIRPORT WATCHING
Comme c'est cruel de pourchasser des SDF de leurs campements sans savoir où aller dans ce monde impitoyable même dans les coins inhospitaliers les plus reculés tels la jungle ou les lieux désertiques de la Californie.
Omg again and again this homeless issues along the beach it’s not a camp ground most of these people with the mental disorders need to be in a mental hospital with proper care so there off the streets the this an endless cycle it seems in California that older gentleman should be in a retirement home.
Bear mace fogger
Why dont they just gather up all the homeless ppl ONTO Venice Beach. Then have the cops throw full bottles of Mad Dog 20/20, or Night Train out into the Rip Tides?
Do that for about 3 weeks....
no more homeless problem. ...😆
Then we just wait for The Democrats to give us MORE homeless! The Dems are REAL GOOD at that!
I remember the mad dog 20/20 on Venice Beach in the sixties, thank god for my sister and AA, got out before my mind went
Why does it have to be weekly ,just clean it up and keep them out ?,😂😂❤
Everyone has a story😪
That lady is old. She should be taken care of.
This is the road of society, government imposed taxes and eliminating fossil fuels will make all of us homeless.
