Thank you Channel 47 for finally stepping up and pointing this out. The city can't seem to find a legal leg to stand on as far as controlling the homeless, and the city also seems to have turned a blind eye to the disgusting mess they are making down here. Business owners and homeowners alike are fed up with it. The Council Member states that their hands are tied because that area is privately owned. It would take me all of 5 minutes to point out NUMEROUS areas that look every bit as bad, and are CITY owned. They can’t get it together legally to do something about it, so they better wake up and realize that they need to keep a CONSTANT clean up presence down there. Other cities have found a way to LEGALLY deal with their homeless. I suggest we send some Fresno City council members to those cities so they can learn how to do it. That or come up with a plan to use criminals in jail for constantly cleaning up after the homeless that you have decided to let run rampant in the very same part of the city you are trying revitalize. Get it together City of Fresno!!!! Do something one way or the other!!!! Channel 47, and reporter Rachel Azevedo, please don’t let this story die. It is high time we force our city leaders to face this growing mess. I just recently saw an article about how our Mayor states that the homeless population has gone down. What a Crock!!! Homeless are traveling to Fresno from other cities because of how LAX we are towards them. They are spreading throughout the city, and bringing their trash with them. If you can’t figure out how to legally deal with them, at least figure out how to CLEAN UP AFTER THEM!!!!

You have to thank the wonderful mayor, when she began her war on homelessness this is what you got...THANKS A LOT MAYOR PITBULL!

The renters/homeowners should sue the landowners for loss of use and enjoyment of their homes due to the trash problem and scary people squatting on their property.

For the past year I cant get CBS47.tv to stop playing the videos automatically on the website (At least the commercial part). Now when they have a story I want to hear about the video is nowhere to be found. Just a picture of the logo. Keep up the great work 47.
