San Jose officials on Saturday announced plans for an encampment ban covering a half-mile stretch of downtown's Guadalupe River, a first-of-its-kind policy that represents the latest push by city leaders to further clamp down on unmanaged homeless sites.
This is a public trail here along the river that should be accessible to everyone, Mayor Matt Mahan said at a news conference on Saturday, joined by Councilmembers Omar Torres and Dev Davis. But people simply didn't feel safe. It was completely blocked by trash, I even came down here and saw chickens running around.
