Seattle Clears Woodland Park Camp, Referring 89 People to Homeless Shelters

Woodland Park was one of Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell’s top priorities since he took office. City workers have referred 89 homeless persons to shelters and removed the encampment from the park

Harrell said in a press conference at Woodland Park that the city’s efforts to remove the Woodland Park encampment has resulted in 60 referrals to tiny house villages, 25 referrals to enhanced shelters and four relocations to permanent housing.

“From day one, my administration began working to address the encampment at Woodland Park because it is inhumane and unacceptable for people to suffer in parks and on sidewalks without running water, sanitation, care and compassion,” Harrell said Thursday. “We will continue acting with urgency to drive sustainable solutions to the homelessness crisis . . . connecting those experiencing homelessness with shelter and services, identifying emergency and affordable housing, and ensuring parks and public spaces are accessible and welcoming to all.”
