Milwaukee, Wisconsin: On Friday, at least 90 homeless people camping at a known "tent city" under the I-794 state highway bridges since last Summer between W. Clybourn Street to W. St. Paul Ave. and between from S. 6th Street to S. 2nd Street in the City of Milwaukee were given evictions notices by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WISDOT) Secretary Graig Thompson's Office. The homeless people have until October 31, 2019 to remove their belongings from state highway property. The WISDOT Southeast Region eviction notice says that it's illegal to camp on state highways.
They were advised to take advantage of services provided by the homeless outreach teams that include non-profit organizations that offer a variety of services to the homeless in the area and also housing is being provided for those that would apply and qualify.
