Chew says this injunction has made it difficult for the city to clean up sidewalks and streets for the last 9 months.

So they can clear intent 3 times a day, 5 days a week for the 9 months that the injunction ha week for the 9 months that the injunction hbeen enter. And its important to note that even injunction the city is allowed to clear an address, homeless encampments that are posing their health and safety violation worsens, violating from alexis ability laws.
