The order states that the Safe and Beautiful Emergency Operations Center will continue to manage the District's response to the Safe and Beautiful Task Force and presidential declaration of emergency.
DC Mayor Bowser speaks with Trump, says crime is down following federal takeover
There are new results from President Donald Trump’s D.C. takeover, and they show crime dramatically down.
"The SBEOC will communicate the District’s requests that federal partners adhere to established policing practices that maintain community confidence in law enforcement officers, such as not wearing masks, clearly identifying their agency, and providing identification during arrests and encounters with the public."
As part of post-emergency planning, the mayor says that the District will also continue to coordinate with federal law enforcement agencies.
Dig deeper:
"The major workstreams of the SBEOC are public safety and justice, homelessness and encampments, beautification, and finance and economic resilience," according to a statement released by the mayor's office on Tuesday.
The Deputy Mayor for Public Safety and Justice has been designated to address requests from federal partners and coordinate with the Task Force, while the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services will lead efforts around homelessness, encampments, shelters and housing.
Federal sweep of DC homeless encampments sparks tension as Trump takeover continues
A federal sweep of homeless encampments that began Thursday is triggering concerns among advocates who fear homeless residents across the city could face arrest or be committed during President Donald Trump’s takeover of the nation’s capital.
Last week, outreach teams identified 764 people living outside, with 81 people living in tents.
"Since the start of the surge, approximately 80 additional individuals have entered the District’s shelter system, but it is unknown where those individuals were living prior to coming into shelter."
