In oakland, Laura Anthony, abc7 news. Sonoma county has a new wrinkle in its continuing homeless problem thanks to covid19. It involves the temporary shelter that hasnt closed and a community nearby that never wanted it in the first place. Now more from abc7 News Reporter wayne freedman. Reporter you might never know that the quiet, peaceful joe rodota trail has come a long way since last winter. Well, its clean here.

We asked supervisor linda hopkins. Those homeless along the joe rodota trail used to be in her district. I think were in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic situation where we need to maintain every ounce of shelter capacity that we have in Sonoma County right now.
