Massive encampment considered 'a safety/health hazard' cleared in Placer County

Cheyenne Lemieux never lived at the homeless encampment near Placer County's government center in North Auburn, but she knows people who did. “They just said it was crazy,” she said. “Really, really out of hand.” As someone who’s unhoused herself, Lemieux also saw the massive encampment before the county went in and cleaned it up.
