Description
These two carts have been here for over two weeks. There are numerous other items, including the remnants of a bike chop shop. It would be great to get all this removed from our lake premises.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us via SeeClickFix St. Pete. This report has been forwarded to the Office of Veteran, Social & Homeless Services. While Homelessness is not illegal, the City addresses homelessness and related social issues City-wide by utilizing a two-tiered philosophy of service: Referral followed by enforcement.
Our Police Department has a Street Outreach Team (PATH) that actively canvasses areas where the activities of the homeless are noticed, and they will continue doing so to ensure the safety of all citizens. Police Assisting the Homeless (PATH) non-emergency Homeless Hotline voicemail can be reached at 727-551-3783.
Please immediately report any criminal activity or safety concerns to the SPPD directly by calling 727-893-7780 if not an emergency or 911 if an emergency. Thank you.
We work closely with various City departments and local social service providers to address issues faced by our homeless population, and we also work with neighborhood associations to address the concerns they have as well. Information may be found on this page of the StPete.org website:

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Our Police Assisting The Homeless (PATH) unit has been at this location several times offering services to individuals they come into contact with. On 03/21/24 PATH made contact with several unhoused individuals sitting near by. Part of the property was removed by the owner, but PATH could not locate a owner for the other property. PATH put in a request to our Codes Compliance department to have the items posted for removal as it was on City property. PATH will certainly continue to monitor the area and should they encounter anyone, they will also offer their help, including free transportation to a shelter, as well as enforce local ordinances. Thank you again for sharing your concerns.
