shutoffs are a necessary tool to prevent those fires from sparking. >> it's definitely frustrating. but i mean, some of it i mean, all of it's really out of our hands. >> low humidity, dry vegetation and high winds elevating the fire danger in the east bay. as a result, pg and e decided to do a public safety power shut off that began thursday morning and will likely last through saturday. >> what that is, is when we proactively de-energize customers because of the high risk of fire. >> the shut off impacting hundreds of customers in alameda county, most of those south and east of livermore, hundreds more in contra costa county, including some in clayton, are also affected, along with a few dozen in santa clara county east of gilroy. >> i'm just used to it at this point. one of our neighbors, she she has a generator, so we hear hers kick on. and, you know, we just deal. >> pg and e says over the years, i has actually helped them reduce the number of customers

6:07 pm
barring so-called van, lauding the advertising and renting of rvs as a primary residence. starting july 1st, people are prohibited from parking and sleeping in rvs from 9 p.m. until 6 a.m, officials say the current law banning street sleeping was too vague and didn't address rvs specifically. >> it's unsafe and it's unfair to the broader community. we have had rvs light on fire if it's someone killed in an rv fire. we have trash impacts across the city. we are not arresting or prosecuting people for being homeless. >> this council cares more about their constituents than obviously the unhoused. >> advocates such as gail osmer fear the latest ordinance, which comes on the heels of a new law requiring the unhoused accept city services or be cited or even jailed, is another attempt toward outlawing homelessness. the city continues campsite abatements, such as this site at columbus park. >> provided somewhere else to go. i would bend to move, but at this point in time, it's hard to say, you know, kind of depending
6:08 pm
on home first in the city. >> advocates say rvs, no matter how imperfect, are offering shelter for those who are having a hard time getting permanent housing. >> i would like to see more rv safe parking open now. not at the end of the year. >> second district councilwoman pam campos was the lone vote against the ordinance. in a statement, she says in part, the ordinance language the council voted on is ambiguous and overly broad, and forcing the ordinance without offering housing, safe parking or an off ramp is not a solution. mayor matt mehan counters there will be upwards of 1000 beds coming online for the unhoused by the end of this year, and he reiterates this ordinance targets those who are buying and renting out rvs, not people who are down on their luck and sleeping in their cars in san jose. jesse gary, ktvu, fox two news. >> and this is just one of a number of plans passed in san jose in recent months tied to
6:09 pm
the homeless. on tuesday, the city of san jose unanimously approved the plan to add five more motels as temporary housing for people experiencing homelessness. this comes after the city council recently voted to refine their policy. if someone living on the streets rejects the city's offer for shelter three times within an 18 month span, they could be arrested. and in march, san jose expanded hours for the sleeping ban on downtown streets. the city of sunnyvale has chosen a familiar face for its new chief of public safety. deputy fire chief daniel pastor will take the top job. he was selected after a nationwide recruitment process. he succeeds former chief van gogh, who retired in april. pastor has been with sunnyvale since 2003. he said in a statement that he is honored to lead the department, saying, quote, i will continue to prioritize transparency, communication and equity in every aspect of our work. coming up, a number of juneteenth celebrations across the bay area where people are recognizing a
