Vancouver's park board plans to close Crab Park homeless encampment by Nov 7, 2023, offering shelter support.
Vancouver's park board is moving to close the homeless encampment at Crab Park by November 7, 2023, which has existed since 2021. The board cites health and safety risks and resource strain, noting that the seven residents declined previous shelter offers. While activists label the closure an "eviction," the park board plans to support the individuals during this process, allowing overnight sheltering in compliance with bylaws.
