- Los Angeles, January 19, 2024 - The City of Los Angeles carried out a major cleanup operation on the Venice Beach Boardwalk, a location often utilized by the homeless as a makeshift shelter. This cleanup is a key component of the city's extensive plan to enhance public facilities and tackle homelessness. The operation was a joint effort by the Department of Public Works and Recreation and Parks, excluding Clean Harbors Environmental Inc., typically responsible for handling hazardous materials.
During the cleanup, the team was equipped with protective gear, underscoring the city's commitment to ensuring worker safety. Councilwoman Traci Park's Housing Coordinator was instrumental in facilitating communication between various city departments, including those involved in the homeless encampment task force. Support also came from the LA Homeless Services Authority, which provided outreach services.
Notably, the unhoused population at the Venice Beach Boardwalk cooperated with the efforts, moving out as requested by the Los Angeles Park Rangers, who played a crucial role in maintaining safety and ensuring compliance during the operation. This initiative is part of the city's broader strategy to address homelessness, which includes regular cleanups along the boardwalk, supervised by the Park Rangers.
This cleanup operation highlights Los Angeles' commitment to a comprehensive approach in dealing with homelessness, focusing not only on immediate cleanups but also on long-term solutions and resources, aiming for lasting change within the community.

If there is a camera, Daisy will be right there!
I Swear she has gps on the cleanup crew. lol smh
most likely Fabian lets her know when he will be out there. and she is out there like a fly to dead meat@@dinoman4451
She's like a real life Terry from Reno 911 😂
she's a good candidate for a straight jacket.
ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS 💯
It's inappropriate for Daisy to touch the city workers. Can you imagine if it was reversed? There are boundaries which she always crosses . Maybe if they weren't in their city clothes they wouldn't mind but they're there to do a job and always look uncomfortable. Stop it Daisy!!
Indeed, it's extremely rude to get into someone else's personal space, especially while they're working. All that touching, petting, bumping hips and getting nose to nose with people is very inappropriate.
Ok Karen....
@@MrAsmith1583 Feel better now?.
it is ridiculous how ditzy daisy thinks she has no boundaries and everyone wants her to touch them- the only ones that want her hugs are the male pervs@@vicentiu67
Daisy is a psychotic mess.
Why doesn't the city just ban camping on the beach?
It wouldn't matter. The police stopped enforcing laws a decade ago.
Upper court has overturn the unconstitutional ordinance due to shortage of shelter beds etc.
Cause newsum judges and Bonta don’t care about citizen taxpayers and businesses. They allow these lazy ass drug nuts run rampant and give them money. And worse Calif voters approve of newsum.
God bless each of the city workers
People living in those expensive apartments have to look out there window everyday and see this.
Liberals...
They love it.
They knew what they were doing. The bums, crazies and drug addicts have been there for decades. You don’t move to the ghetto and expect ghetto stuff to stop happening because you decided to pay too much for rent.
I gotta wonder, where do the vagrants get all that trash and junk, that they drag in from who knows where ? Most of that stuff belongs in the trash truck.
Dumpster diving.
They drug all day long then when the sun goes down, they roam around the surrounding neighborhoods and steal everything that's not bolted down.
Und was das Kostet Tag täglichen Müll zu Entfernen.
@@baerbelvogt6050too much tax payer money down the drain pandering to these homeless lazy drug people.
Go away Daisy go away she just wants air time
I think she has a personal radar that detects a camera filming
Half the population of LA just wants airtime
hanging around all those guys cause she wants money she was a prostitute and she said she was but I’m sure she’s on Not a prostitute anymore, living on the streets broke in all.
Why do they let her run around inside the taped area? Whom ever takes mental health advice from her does need their head examined.
Do I get a sense of......jealousy?
uh no, she is dingy and needs to go tend to her children she has other people raising- it is called responibility@@davidsnider7606
@@davidsnider7606 jealous of what fool? Ahaha wtf
@@AlexLopez-qj1or WASN'T talking to you... squirt. Ahahahaha..
I watch several TH-cam travelers. And many make negative comments about the homeless in America. I believe the homeless in Venice during COVID, did a lot of detrimental damage to the tourist economy that will last for sometime. The homeless situation affects the public and the economy.
understatement. Affects residents even more.
Agreed. There won’t be any change until the bathrooms are demolished. No matter where you walk you’ll see human crap on the sidewalk
The public doesn't care if they litter when they see what others get away with. A loss of pride in the community is obvious otherwise this would have never happened. I'd be moving the hell out of there. lol
The park rangers need to remove Daisy during the cleanup. She requires too much attention.
she requires a straight jacket😑
This is crazy they have destroyed the beaches here in so cal especially it's a bunch of nonsense going on all the time
If Daisy was a man… and doing all that nonsense, they’d put her/ him in jail
Daisy is always full of energy 💯💛
I can't tell if she is a prophet or very, very intelligent or just out of her fucking mind..
How come this forced mental health legislation hasn’t worked on her? She needs serious help and she’s so annoying
she has to get attention and she is no economist.
Amen!!@@vicentiu67
That's what happens when you privatize mental health facilities. Open up asylums...
@@vicentiu67 she ain't going to fuck you so pipe down buddy.
@@vicentiu67she ain't fucking you so pipe down. Good heart? She doesn't even want to take care of her kids or change for them.
Look at me look at me look at me
🤦🏻♀️ Venice healer.. the one who abused poor Cooper a senior fur baby…. she can’t even heal herself.. Jeff gave her till the 1st week of February to find a place. That should be her focus and priority not to mention trying to fix her children’s situation. Sad situation
You talk a lot of shit 👎
Just stop filming this loud, annoying, bad mother!
Get help....daisy....quit disturbing the police...city workers.........hiding behind that behavior.....
They are disturbing the homeless, it's part of her activism. ;)
So Annoyoying
Off the deep end
The tide is turning on the beach and on Daisy. Finally the viewers are calling her accountable for her real life acts, and tiring of her endless and pointless babbling. She makes the job of actual working people more difficult. Fly fly away...
Hey it’s the German in Venice caught on the camera
I love this girl 💃😂she plays her role well 💪💖🤗
God Bless Daisy! She is so loving n caring!👌!
Daisy is a free spirit 🌸 she loves everyone 🩷
Elle est surtout perchée ! très perturbée à la limite d'un séjour en psychiatrie 😅
Daisy is a pain in the back side!
such a beautiful spot. shame it cant be enjoyed.
Whoa again and again the homeless making a big mess for everyone to clean up after them it never ends and of course lol 😂 Daisy comes around.
Daisy was wound up today. Josh was rather subdued. GIV sighting!
This couple was stealing power and should have been given a citation for it, they have to start somewhere.
What is daisy's story. How long has she lived on the streets?
I like Daisy she’s bubbly. She is a 13 y.o. for life.
can the workers move any more slowly?????
You see. It can be done. Hats off to Venice
All it takes is money
Hats off to Mayor Bass.
13:23 German in Venice - thank you for telling me about Daily - the Healer in Venice -
Pan Fabian powiadamia Daisy,że będzie filmować?
"when we're consciously conscious..." I stopped even trying to understand what she's saying after that
Jeff we feel ya....

SMCU all star video ,Daisy, GIV, Dave the photographer, Josh, (more cooperative today) just missing big John the Venice bully.

Needed to be done a long time ago before it got out of control to late.
What's temperature there in C?
16C and rain forecast for Saturday...
Tomorrow, Saturday, January 20, 2024, the high temp will be 62 ° F. with rain.
This girl is an absolute pest!!
Everyone seems to try to IGNORE her, even the homeless.
That big ogre druggy is gonna move right back where he was originally after they clean up the crap and his needles!
The G.I.V!!!
Daisy is beautiful soul Hope she's safe at night outside. I think she's Has a family that takes care of her once in a while I think. Or she acts all like that to get away from real problems.That happened to her in life.
She has no care about her husband ......we know....?
Did anyone see the big rat go running??
No where ? U wanna see a huge rat 🐀. Really
That was Gov. Nuisance.
@@lrod8721 it’s sucks huh ? It’s no better here in beautiful Long Beach.
Next up: The Bubonic Plague
@@kixigvak u guys are so funny . Thanks Iv enjoyed it .
She could turn a turtle to an aggressive predator.
I'm watching Daisy again
It's 30 below zero here
Wish I there talking to Daisy
Daisy reminds me of Peter Pan....lol
Daisy (name meaning - eye of the day, aster - excellent appealing, innocent, child like, close at night, eyes open at day (Days Eyes), simplicity, purity, in Egyptian temples ceramics, Beginning of the New Day, you are beautiful inside and out and have so much courage and Wisdom -
Did the Tiny House get torn down😔🥺⛺
Yes thank God
@@AWNC
😭 Why? God.
German in Venice at 2:49!!!
Daisy needs to be in a mental health facility! It’s amazing that she hasn’t been taken advantage of!
unfortunately she's already apart of the zombie world .she needs rehab first . good luck to her .too many young people on the zombie life now
Appropriately, I’m having Froot Loops for breakfast….
That girl is crazy, i wonder why no one help her
Crazy people have rights
Looks stuck about the age of 3. Somebody needs to help her find a way out and not enable her. Wasting her life away.
She's crazy and homeless but somehow was able to pay for a bbl SMH
The Mess never ends in Venice Beach its Turing people away visiting
She is annoying
OH shit. wtf. THats Venice guy. German on you tube talking too the healer LOL
Daisy is nuckin futs.
They Need New Laws to Stop this people living like this in a holiday area
Hey I saw the a German in Venice 😊
Луд умора няма.
Is she homeless ,too?….I don’t know what she’s constantly talking about, but, obviously
she needs psychological help poor thing 😢
Daisy should be modeling for Victoria secrets or something 😮!!!
Hanging around the homeless and their associated trash without shoes on isn't exactly too bright. Wow, I can barely stand being around some of those creeps never mind wading around shoe-less in their needle-infested trash.
It never should have been aloud to get this bad. Accommodate and provide for a problem and it will only get worse. I have empathy for these people but not sympathy. At some point it's become a choice. The worse side is that cities and states are taking the money from tax payers to pay for the clean up, just to have to do it again and again. I live in washington state and i can't stand to go over to Seattle anymore. It's became filth just like this.
Calif still hasn't learned, if you vote for left wing liberal dumbocrats, you get left wing liberal dumbocrat policies. So, they're getting exactly what they voted for.
I wonder what DAISY WILL look like in 5years?????
A grown woman in her 40s acting like that. Daisy don’t drink the bong water
Sloth mode - engage
Is that one girl homeless? I'd give her a home 4:05
It seems she never stops talking.
Who's is that crazy girl..🤣🤣
The patients run the asylum, good grief this lady is such a tornado of lunacy
I think she is a police officer!😁😁
This is what the church support drug addics? How about the people who are clean and sober with Starving children of homelessness. These people made the choice. Why keep giving when they have no plans of clean their act up ?
She needs help. Why do they put up with that. She acts like a crazy person.
maybe daisy should tend to her children that other people are raising
Touching City Workers is against the law.
GIV spotted at 02:50😂
Those clean-up workers seem to be a poor example of ''workers''.
Why on the beach? Are there no woods left in California? Go hide in the woods like campers do.. or go to an actual campground and pitch your tents up. They usually have community showers to use and wash your funky bodies
Daisy so positive and entertaining
Love her
She must wanting a job following the street department
So annoying. Must have a rich daddy.
Let's hope her story ends well and she is never hurt out there. She has good intentions.
Hanging out on the beach all day isn't a productive life strategy
@@Alboalt Would you hire her? Or what do you think she could do for a productive life strategy?
You’re naive
@@AlboaltThe hell it isn't 🎉
Yeah good intentions on getting high. This lady is I don’t even have no words. Very sad.
Venice is bad. I think mission beach and pacific beach in San Diego is 10x worse.
Sorry to hear that Mission and PB have gone downhill. I used to live on Queenstown Court in MB and tourmaline st in PB back in the early 80s and it was pretty damn nice then.
too early for 'crazy'.
Some of these people are homeless by choice.
DAISY IS WACKED..😂😂😂
No big deal whole Life Misery and Health
Red beard wants to take her home and do some expert video...
Daisy should join WWE
MEREKA TAMPAK MASIH SEHAT KENAPA TIDAK BEKERJA AGAR HIDUP MEREKA MENJADI LEBIH BAIK
She's entertaining and always has to be the center of attention and makes for great content, but if she really wanted to substantially help these unfortunate people, she would take them home and house and support them until they got back on their feet again. But wait.... then she would no longer be the "Star" and would need a new act and an audience to perform before. 🤩💔🍌🍌🍌🍌
Again your Talking
You don't do SHI*
You never bought toilet paper.
Careful don’t get elect
