Jingletown neighbors! We have only two days to get as many concerned neighbor's signatures added to this petition so tha the property owner/representative can submit our support to the judge at Wednesday's EVICTION HEARING. If you agree that the documented violent and other activities requiring numerous police contact at the lot on Lancaster between Ford St and Chapman St, the increasing blight, RV, Camp trailer and abandoned autos resulting from the inhabitants who fraudulently rented the lot are something we do NOT want nor condone in our community please sign this petition. The owner of the lot, Sharon Johnson and family were told by the tenant that the intended use was for some botanical use but promptly moved into the container and eventually also parked a camp trailer on the lot. Both are now lived in by the tenants. This is in violation to several code violations of building, fire and health and safety in nature. Drug use, theft of property and violent confrontations in addition to the blight and code violations have been witnessed by neighbors. The Oakland Police Department has responded to several such incidents. Stolen fencing from the I-880 under freeway parking construction can be seen leaning against the front gates inside the lot.
If you agree with the eviction process being brought by the lit owner based on the above, please help by signing our petition. It is for your safety and that of your neighbors and our community. Thank you.

Seeing this level of support from our neighbors shows how much we all value the safety of our streets. The momentum behind our request is proof that we refuse to let these conditions define our block any longer. I am grateful to have so many of you fighting alongside me to restore peace to our homes.

I want to keep my neighbor safe and these squatters are illegally occupying private property.
Seems like a real fire hazard and life safety issue in my honest opinion, lot of nice homes but right up against that lot.
The written text only begins to tell the story of what's going on at this property. It is the hub of the "homeless" chaos in Jingletown and perceived wild amount of illegal activity, at all hours of the day and night. Several police reports in the past week start here. There’s been a wild increase in property break ins/theft, stolen cars dumped in neighborhood, RV camps, urination on streets, randoms sleeping on streets, garbage dumped, women being chased screaming in fear in middle of night, attacks with machete/knife, noise noise noise...leading to concern and fear across the neighborhood. Please put an end to this. Thank you!
If this were just Sharon's problem, I'd say that she kind of deserves it for not doing the diligence up front. But now, we are all in this. Thanks Sharon.
They are an ABSOLUTE menace in the neighborhood, living illegally in this space! They've got to go!!
Seems like a no brainer!
I support the removal of squatters on lancaster.

Enough is enough. My kids cant even ride bikes on that street anymore because of the mess and the people hanging out there. Get them out of our neighborhood.
