As a cold rain pounded down and an order to vacate the premises loomed heavy in the air over Charlotte’s Tent City, residents of the homeless encampment began loading into vans Thursday.
A rat infestation and deteriorating conditions at the campsite prompted Mecklenburg County health director Gibbie Harris to issue an ‘imminent hazard’ declaration earlier this week.
She gave the residents 72 hours to vacate the property and ordered the property owners including the City of Charlotte to clean up the site and eradicate the rats.
Harris said health inspectors long feared a rodent infestation would be possible at the site because of the large amounts of trash that piled up there each day.
“Over the last two weeks conditions have worsened significantly,” she said.
On Feb. 11 is when those inspectors first discovered proof of a rat infestation, Harris said.
