REDWOOD CITY, CA The number of RV dwellers in Redwood City has decreased by more than 75 percent over the last six months as it has rolled out a temporary safe parking program, according to city officials.
During a study session on homelessness Monday, Human Services Manager Teri Chin told the city council that Redwood City now has an average of 25 to 35 residents living in RVs each night, a drop from a high of 140 RVs parked on city streets six months ago.
The council approved a two-year, $1.7 million program last August that allows RV owners to park within city limits and get help from caseworkers with transitioning to permanent housing and finding employment. The city allowed some street permitted parking for RVs and up to 40 RV households can park at a safe parking site on Maple Street.
