San Bernardino County prohibits obstructing public sidewalks, trails, and rights-of-way with personal property or encampments in unincorporated areas, applying offer-of-shelter principles consistent with Ninth Circuit precedent.
Unincorporated SBC has no LAMC-style sit-lie ordinance, but Sheriff and Code Compliance enforce general right-of-way obstruction rules and trespass on public lands. Following Martin v. Boise and successor cases, enforcement of camping prohibitions against unsheltered individuals generally requires an offer of available shelter. The SBC Office of Homeless Services coordinates outreach with the Continuum of Care to connect people to interim housing before clean-up actions. Federal lands (BLM, Joshua Tree NP, military reservations) are governed by separate federal rules.
Blocking sidewalks, fire-access roads, or trail entrances with structures or stored property can result in citations and abatement after notice and shelter offer where applicable.
