A Bay Area mayor is being criticized for how he's handling a homeless encampment. The mayor of Richmond shared the addresses of his rivals on the City Council with several people living in RV's along Rydin Road. In an email, Mayor Tom Butt told the residents living at the encampment to park their RV's outside of the council member's homes and said they were "RV-friendly parking spots." Council members wanted to give the Rydin Road residents $1700 to leave the encampment, with the possibility of getting $7,000 if they found other housing. Butt didn't agree with that plan, instead he wanted to open an RV parking site. Neighbors were against that. The city is trying to solve their homeless crisis as the number of people living on the streets has gone from 333 to 632 people in three years. 

Did he cross the line as far as telling people to park in front of other council members' homes…or is he working to get things done and making a point while doing it?
