The business community has also expressed a concern
regarding the loitering Day Laborers. Many of the owners or managers of the
surrounding business properties are afraid to personally contact the loiterers.
The business owners have complained that the presence of Day Laborers is a
detriment to the business community, as many potential customers go elsewhere,
rather than be intimidated by the loitering Day Laborers.
The problems associated with Day Laborers also present a
significant drain on police resources. On many occasions officers have
contacted loitering Day Laborers that are in violation of various alcohol
and/or drug offenses. Day laborers also contribute to excessive amounts of
trash and litter being scattered about the area.

The Concord Police are frigging LAZY when it comes to dealing with the day laborers. They always have been.
If Livingston becomes our next Sheriff I hope the next chief here in Concord does a better job dealing with this situation.
