A tow truck removes an RV owned by Wayne Gardiner, 58, for more than 20 years during a sweep at Columbus Park, San Jose’s largest homeless encampment, on Aug. 25, 2025. The city offered residents $2,000 for their RVs. “The facts of life is that things like this will happen. You have to take the deal because they’re gonna take it anyways,” he said. “I have to just let it go.”
