A man took a pickaxe to a car on Wood Street in Oakland. Business owners said the city is not doing enough to enforce existing policies for homeless encampments.

Business owners said the city is not doing enough to enforce existing policies for homeless encampments.

"We could be doing much more around these issues," said city council member Carroll Fife who represents West Oakland.She said the city council creates policies but does not have the power to enforce them and that she needs the support of the city, county and state to address the problems that come with homelessness and mentally illness.

"I say to the business community, let's organize. I hear you. I feel you. It's challenging," said Fife. Music producer Larry Clark said he loves working at his rented studio at the building where the axe attack took place, but is considering moving if the problems persist. "I'm not expecting the encampment to go away. I'm not expecting the homeless to go away. We can co-exist, but the city has to manage that interaction," said Lucchesi.

The music studio owner said he wants laws to be enforced in the areas of these encampments, the same way they are enforced elsewhere in Oakland.
