him with a burning were not true no we did not get said that day i spoke with one of the officers who responded kelly had a sleeping bag and blankets were on top of him were people are getting these things i don't know i'm a low gauge contends police officers do not directly take property from homeless people when kelly's nephew says that's not true  leonard or sorrow you know that a city native who lives in the southern county can be at least twice officers took his uncle's gear including once just before stereo and his father ran into cali walking alongside a road basically they knew him they took his gear so he wouldn't camp out kind of hey get out of your kind of vibe said or so are you who noted neither of these instances took place in freezing weather i think the cops might have been doing that to get him to go to a homeless shelter but it happened before and i'm sure it wasn't just to him yet it gave knowledge that he told paul emerick a v m are radio that officers had not taken any property from homeless people since january twenty fifth but the property taken into custody that day was due to a cleanup of a camp after public works had received complaints about trash underneath the freeway gauges added we cleaned up the homo skip gates said public works has actually was actually cleaning it up not seen how the identification on it anything of value was taken for safe keeping it's bagged and tagged in storage and police department for at least ninety days cade said several people at a camp had been previously taken into custody for violations by the police department typically new to come by to pick up their belongings to pawn being released half of those people we've taken to jail gates said they know when they get out that they can come back and we give it to them but assuming the owner of the that they're they're taking their property in order to give them an opportunity to retrieve it if they toss it whether they take it directly or not they're violating their right under state law marin ality any seize property must remain available to owners for ninety days marion said he has filed lawsuits on behalf of homes clients against the county of sacramento over such actions and one the proper thing for them to do is to past several years the police department has cleaned up such camps a handful of times but most the work was taking care of trash and that a serious police do often receive complaints about homeless people from area merchants and residents gates said most often officers are called to the public parking lot on

been taken from him now i realize that just a report but what else do i have to go from an organization of neighborhood activist friends of nevada city elementary who pressed school officials to close gold run schools so that nevada city elementary can be reopened members of the friends of and csar they would speak before the nevada city school district at the board meeting which was last night open session started seven p m district  hundred hoover lane behind seven hills go and here's a portion of the letter i couldn't quite fit the whole thing and today friends of and see letter dated and c e letter dated march eighth two thousand and eleven addressed to the superintendent roxanne gilpatrick and members of the board and to nevada city school district and the letter states dear mr kilpatrick and members of the board sent to closure of nevada city elementary and c e school in the summer neighborhood and our entire community and c e has been the center of our community for seventy two years always the school has community support going back many generations by the way you can see one of their things on you tube just check under in c and it should come up as our group has assessed now how to resolve some of the complexities of returning and see to its prior use as a school we have tried to identify both problems and solutions one item that continues to be identified as a solution and the benefit to the school district and the community is the idea of making run school available for lease potential benefits of offering gold run for lease include gold run is a much more desirable property to lease than and see and could be leased by charter schools or the county office of schools both groups have expressed strong interest limited number of potential clients to lease this type of this facility gold run house sufficient space to allow the lease let's see to increase available space through the addition of modular facilities gold run has adequate parking for most potential uses and c e has limited parking mainly on the street and c e would need significant altercation alterations if it was leased by other the something other than the school gold run would be used for office school or other purposes with minimal alterations called run is easily accessible by car or public transportation gold run is located on a business district and the non school uses would not conflict with the surrounding area and use person that would be easier to obtain for a non school you stand for and c e n c e is located in small quiet residential neighborhood and a tolerance for non school use of n c is minimal although we believe gold run is better suited for lease than m c e we know that there are financial considerations for closing and csar just deferred maintenance in annual operating costs our group is committed to help the school district resolve these issues we have also met with some of the charter schools to let them know that we would support these lease offers and let them know what a great district we would be to work with we have continued to keep the discussion open in the community about gold run as a possible alternative lease offer because of its flexibility for a variety of uses we hope that the school board will allow every opportunity for n c e a to be returned to its historic use as a school we are very concerned that the intern lease offer based on the original lease me blocked this opportunity the in turn lease allows for only three year tenancy and is based on lease that is not attractive to charter schools last june charter schools are waiting for the school district to release a new release that is amendable to the needs of the school would like to see the charter schools given an opportunity to bi you for what you talk to them
