Thank you @ChiefMikeBrown & @DCDoubt for teaching the Community Activists Group (CAG): “The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon public approval of police actions.” SRP #utpol #communitypolicing

A couple years ago state officials were claiming to have "solved" chronic homelessness at a time everyone could tell we had not. With the transition to a new shelter system we can't afford to make a similar mistake by changing inconvenient data. #utpol

Another aspect of that @CDComms is blind to, is the Un-Sheltered Homeless Crisis that #OperationRioGrande has produced. Leaving many experiencing homelessness that suffer from mental illness to languish, untreated in streets of @PoplarGroveNA

[Michael Clara @donMiguelSLC]

In July 2018, @ChiefMikeBrown told us: "Using the police is the most expensive and least effective way to address #homelessness ". After reading the newly released @acluutah report on #OperationRioGrande I'm thinking I should drop my skepticism of the Chief's wisdom. #utpol

Our statement opposing closure of Rio Grande Street and de facto incarceration of homeless people. #utpol

[Poplar Grove NA @PoplarGroveNA]

The @JordanRiverCom should ask @slcmayor why are encampments allowed along the Jordan River but NOT on 500 W ? #OperationRioGrande #utpol

[Poplar Grove NA @PoplarGroveNA]

Jordan River behind Backman School: @slcmayor now says @slcpd will not address camping in #Westside communities. #OperationRioGrande #utpol

[Poplar Grove NA @PoplarGroveNA]

This is sad. @slcmayor gave us a different story at our Friday night meeting https://t.co/L3N7UnByTx #utpol #OperationRioGrande https://t.co/HLYKn20zIc

[Mayor Erin Mendenhall @slcmayor]

Being homeless isn't a crime anywhere. If campers have warrants they're arrested If not, they're directed to services like @crossroadsurban https://t.co/zaSebTaFg2

[Mayor Erin Mendenhall @slcmayor]

We will close the Rio Grande St to vehicle traffic immediately & launch a public feedback process. #utpol #OperationRioGrande

[Poplar Grove NA @PoplarGroveNA]
