#OTG An OHS official and a handful of cops are traveling between the different sections of the encampment between 12th and 15th along Locust. Cops are mostly standing around while OHS harasses residents. There is a powerwasher slowly making its way west, still on 12th street now. Residents are mopping their own floors and still being told to move their things. Support as cops and maintenance people make their way to 15th is appreciated. At the pace they are moving, it will be over the course of hours. We will post updates as we have them. Thank you everyone for coming out and making it known they cannot act unseen on the houseless!
#OTG It has become clear that the cleaning crew has no intention of drying the floor after the power washing, which means residents are unable to move their tents back to their living spot. If they power wash everything down here, there will be nowhere for people to keep their stuff without it getting soaked. Tarps needed
#scanner All units be advised, SEPTA will be closed for the next two hours (anyone w more info on this?)
#scanner Two bike units requested to 15 and Locust
#scanner All central district units instructed to stay out of the area of 800 N 10th / 10 and Brown until further notice
Huge thanks to everyone who showed up to help and watch. your presence keeps the authorities accountable.
#scanner Police may resume all normal radio transmission at 17 and Walnut
#OTG Cops are looking for excuses to ticket cars protestors are hanging around
#OTG It seems cleaners are now powerwashing around the tents, without moving things out of the way.
#OTG Many thanks to people dropping off tarps! Tarps are extremely useful to our houseless neighbors outside of this scenario as well. They help protect people and their belongings from the elements and can conceal tents and belongings when unoccupied. We encourage you to bring supplies like this to the PATCO encampment regardless of eviction threats!
#OTG Maintenance has stopped asking people to move their belongings for now. When asked if there will be any more power washing today, they said “maybe on the 15th and Locust side”
Evictions (new ones at least) stayed through June 30. Administrative Order In Re: Residential Eviction Moratorium and Exceptions. Service of Writs and Alias Writs of Possession https://t.co/Kwm3vpribA
This thread from Helen Gym explains the new order which is NOT as good as a full blown moratorium, so if you are facing an eviction pay attention because it's more complicated. You now must go through a diversion program. https://twitter.com/HelenGymPHL/status/1377586093021859843?s=19
The PATCO Encampment goes on another day, but the need for solidarity isn’t over yet! City officials told people #OTG yesterday they plan to return Monday, so the community will too! This time tabling food and donations. Message the tip line @PhillyEvictionTipBot if you need help getting involved with this or upcoming regular distribution, and we can point you in the right direction.
Chatter around April 11 seems to be heating up. Whether this will be a fizzle and not an event worth worrying about at all or another fake event meant to fracture the anti-fascists again, it seems the Nazis plan to be in Philly on the 11th

Anti-fascists showed them what solidarity meant and intimidated them in Clark Park with good times and good vibes last summer; Anti Fascists and wheelie kids ran them out of center city in 2017 with some signature Philly chaos, and Philly can absolutely show them the way out of town on the 11th. Philly isn't for fascists. Talk to your friends, make a plan, stay safe.

And make sure it's the kind of plan where if they chicken out again you can have a nice outing with your good buds, just so you don't waste your time.
