Homeowners in a California subdivision have been charged $20,000 for the cleanup of a former homeless camp near their neighborhood, with residents arguing the decision was delayed and shouldn’t just be their responsibility, according to multiple reports.
Walsh Property Management, which oversees the homeowners association, charged each resident $300 to clean up the trash and waste at the camp, located in the San Lorenzo Creek ravine below their homes in Lakewood, near San Francisco.
Lakewood is a subdivision of 75 houses in Castro Valley.
