      The question is who is responsible for supervising this RV park and what, if any, policies do they have regarding RV parks, renter's rights, etc. While the address places it in Yucaipa, CA, location-wise may place it outside city limits on the border of a National Forest while the nearby agricultural community of Oak Glen had less than 700 residents in the 2010 census and may not even have any town government. So, is the county responsible?

      The math doesn't add up. 687,000 @ 100 residents = 6,870. if that's been over 3 years since covid, it comes to about 190 a month for each resident. that seems awfully high for those campers. although the well pumps run on them also, and I'm sure the park has other buildings and lighting for outside, but those costs should be on the park. The residents need to show receipts and hire an attorney.

Once they are homeless they will receive no free housing, no free food and no free healthcare. They will have to watch non citizens who broke federal law and have never paid a cent in taxes to this country in their life receive free food free healthcare and free housing from the government. All on the back of their tax money.

    I am fairly certain that all COVID eviction moratoriums have expired so why haven't the owners started the eviction process for those supposedly not paying their rent? Regardless the owners are almost certainly contractually obligated to provide electricity to those who have been paying and failure to provide power (and water) would be a breach of their rental agreement and those renters could sue them for a lot more money than the owners would lose for at least trying to keep up with the power bill.

It bad enough they not paying rent but the landlord still have to pay their electric bills. I think the landlord are trying to clear them all out.
