West Vancouver residents plead with city to clear homeless camp along West Mill Plain Boulevard
A dozen west Vancouver residents pleaded with the city council on Monday to clear a homeless encampment along West Mill Plain Boulevard.
The camp along the road’s sound wall has grown from a few tents to about 50 within the past year. Some parents said their children are afraid to go outside their homes in the Hough neighborhood.
“I have an 8-year-old child who has nightmares … about strangers breaking into our home while she sleeps,” said Rachel Trevino, a single mother of three children.
