"Federal Judge Upholds Decision to Proceed with Camp Nenookaasi Eviction in Minneapolis"

U.S. District Judge Eric Tostrud ruled that the city of Minneapolis can proceed with its plan to clear a homeless encampment, Camp Nenookaasi, on the south side of the city. The judge determined that the city's actions would not violate constitutional rights and noted that the city had provided adequate notice. The land is set to be sold to a nonprofit for the development of an art and wellness center. The judge emphasized that policy decisions on homelessness are better suited for lawmakers rather than the judiciary. The encampment is scheduled to be closed on Thursday.
