Venice Beach Cleanup: Park Rangers and LAPD Remove Homeless Encampments in Coordinated Effort

Venice, Los Angeles – Friday, October 25, 2024 — As part of Venice's weekly cleanup efforts, a coordinated operation took place at Venice Beach, led by Los Angeles Park Rangers, LAPD officers, and multiple city agencies. The focus was on removing a homeless encampment to maintain public safety and cleanliness. Police and Park Rangers were on-site to oversee the process, ensuring it complied with Los Angeles Municipal Code 63.44, which prohibits tents in public spaces. No citations were issued. LAHSA provided essential services, including food, water, and hygiene kits to those affected, reflecting the city’s commitment to support over punishment. After clearing the area, the cleanup team addressed other encampments. This initiative is part of a broader effort to maintain public spaces while compassionately addressing homelessness. Weekly cleanups are essential to Los Angeles’s strategy to ensure safety and sanitation in public areas, with a focus on supportive solutions over enforcement.
