“Without clarification, the court’s order puts San Francisco in an impossible situation, practically and legally,” City Attorney David Chiu wrote in a statement on Tuesday.

“I am concerned that this order, if interpreted broadly, will lead to more people suffering on our City streets.’” How a judge's ruling is — and isn't — impacting S.F.'s homeless sweeps Despite the confusion sparked by a judge’s ruling last week, The City can — and has already continued to — conduct sweeps of homeless encampments
“The relief sought by plaintiffs will not bar defendants’ efforts to ‘keep public spaces clean and sanitary’ or ‘allow safe access’ to sidewalks and rights-of-way since plaintiffs do not ask the court to enjoin any ordinances targeting public health nuisances or willfully obstructing streets, sidewalks, or other passageways,“ Ryu wrote.
