The guy who "got off the bus from Louisiana" and others are running all over town and nothing you can do about the risk

Is lack of local enforcement of shelter order regarding residents endangering your health?

The letter from the property management company has had impact on most residents except the 290 registrant. However, the same guy who is constantly out several times a day, had the friend "get off the bus from Louisiana" now has an unknown guy living/visting here since the Louisiana remark and he continues to have transients and others from the alleys visit him, with their dogs and drives with these people all over town. I have been home all day and the latest visitor and this guy left at 5:15 and came back at 6:15. The visitor happened to be wearing the same bandana as the guy, allegdly from Lousiana. The racket they were making made me get up and look out my window.

Calling EPD won't do any good. EPD is having Code Enforcement handle shelter order violations.  Code Enforcement called the property management company once already. EPD and Code Enforcement are busy.

When I have tried to document violations and inform property management and sent them another photo yesterday, they are giving me attitude and refuse to do anything about this tenant.

I have been researching the law regarding the constitution and the shelter in place order. I have also just started researching tort law, specifically negligence, regarding knowingly transmitting the coronavirus. While there are challenges, from what I read so far it isn't impossible.

Even if legally it is a challenge, when photos of the violation and detailed documentation has been provided about someone refusing to follow the shelter in place order, being out several times a day, deliberating putting the community at risk, why are the authorities and the property management company blowing off the risk to you and me?  And, I am putting this post out there in public due to intimidation by the property management company.

I am trying to inform and protect myself and you. Isn't that what media and responsible citizens do?

The tenant is harassing me and retaliating as well. Try protecting yourself when everything is shut down due to the pandemic.

The property management company is aware of this harassment. There are challenges and I can't take photos of this guy and his visitors today without risking my safety. The property management and authorities have other photos of repeated violations.

Regardless of  differences you have with anyone, we are all  one community and right now we need to be watching out for each other.

I am human, just as scared as you are and to continue speaking out isn't easy. I dont want anyone to get sick, I cant control that but seeing someone deliberately put this community at risk is not okay.

There have been issues prior to COVID with this guy. He knows that besides meaningless warnings, property management wont do anything. This situation is different. We are in the middle of a deadly pandemic and people can get sick and die due to inaction.

If the next step from education is enforcement, why are the local authorities only penalizing businesses but giving a pass to repeat resident offenders?

4/5 update (10:05 a.m.): I left briefly to the go to the corner store and two other tenants still standing around next to each other smoking. The guy I mentioned was leaving with his friend from Louisiana who was carrying his bags.

San Francisco is doing more than educating. Why aren't we?

According to two links provided below and a Bay areaTV station, "San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott said one individual who had dismissed prior warnings was cited in the past 24 hours for failing to shelter in place, an infraction punishable by fine or even imprisonment."

"The first person cited by San Francisco police for allegedly violating the public health order requiring residents to stay at home is an 86-year-old anti-abortion advocate.

Ronald Konopaski was protesting outside the Planned Parenthood clinic at 1650 Valencia St. near Bernal Heights when police cited him for a misdemeanor.

Sgt. Michael Andraychak, a police spokesperson, confirmed the citation  and said that officers had previously admonished Konopaski for allegedly violating the order."

If you did not read my previous posts on violations from residents at my apartment complex and the follow up, they are linked below.
