City of PG issues statement on encampment court case hearing

After a three-day hearing at the BC Supreme Court last week, the City of Prince George has concluded its application to close the encampment on Lower Patricia Boulevard (Moccasion Flats).

Lawyers for the City sought a final injunction authorizing the City to clear and remediate the encampment once units at the 3rd Avenue supportive housing site are offered to the current encampment occupants.

The application was heard by Justice Elwood, from whom a decision is expected in the coming weeks.

Here is a link to a previous news release from the city on this topic.
