    Accomplishments

    NPO's conducted sweeps for Homeless people early in the mornings and evenings to move homeless campers from highly trafficked and visible locations.  The mixmaster bridge over I30 and Lancaster Ave is cleaned and cleared every morning in conjunction with CODE. The NPO's also participated in five homeless camp cleanups (3/11, 1400 Jennings; 3 on 3/13, 835 E Powell, 1100 E Lancaster, and 1800 E Northside Dr; 3/15, 900 Morgan; as well as the daily cleanup of I35 under the mixmaster) and conducted 28 details to address panhandling complaints.  The NPO's also check on parolees on their beats on a weekly basis. Central Division has now developed a citywide report for all homeless camp cleanup details in the city that is passed on every Friday.
