Crews could be seen carrying bags while others used heavy machinery to help clear the area. “There is a lot of debris out here. We have some unhoused individuals here who are camping out, and we’re basically trying to make this a better area,” BernCo Director of Operations and Maintenance Antonio Jaramillo said.
The county says cleaning sites like this is one of its biggest initiatives and they are planning for more in the future.
