Phoenix asks judge for more time to clear downtown homeless encampment
Fox News
City officials in Phoenix, Arizona, are asking a judge for more time to clear out “The Zone," a massive homeless encampment in downtown.
Representing Phoenix, attorney Justin Pierce told Judge Scott Blaney that much progress has been made since March, when the court ordered Phoenix to lessen the public nuisance the encampment created.
Deputy City Manager Gina Montes testified that Phoenix has now identified a property for a structured camping site with bathrooms and showers for those without housing, which it hopes to open by summer's end.
