    Accomplishments

    NPOs have performed numerous hours of monitoring of the panhandling "hotspots", focusing on the Central Business District, 121/Riverside, and 121/Beach. This daily detail has been in place for months. At this point it remains Officer discretion to warn / cite / arrest homeless offenders due to the pandemic.
