somer rise could be an understatement. there's smoking their math openly residents and business owners say they're complaints to health right through 60 the nonprofit running the center have fallen on deaf ears. they're basically letting their clients come over here and get high go back in sober up then come back in and get i again and have resorted to documenting their struggles every morning. it's a it's a roulette when you show up to your office. are there going to be you know, 10 people passed out in front of your building. are they going to be violent? this was never a problem before health right 360 moved in some even arming themselves against the belligerent or violent with baseball bats and tasers vicen ceo of health, right? 360 says she's listening to neighborhood frustrations. be patient with us. we want to work. we are a part of the community we serve people in that community. she acknowledges the need for adjustments the nonprofits as an example is no longer handing out food and drug supplies after complaints of loitering outside

of buildings. we're gonna fix everything. we're a piece of that. we're a piece of this city's trying novel things the san francisco department of public health tells me the operating budget for somer rise in the 22-23 fiscal year is 4.2 million dollars funded by tax. years 3.5 of that is going to the lease and health right 360. the nonprofit says they serve 240 clients a week while residents. we spoke with don't believe the payoff is worth the cost to quality of life eisen believes. the sobering center's strategy is working. i think this is a real a great start and i'm optimistic about this being part of a network of services that the city is planning to establish health, right 360 has an 18 month contract at howard street the city will then reassess for efficacy for this group. their minds are made up if you ask me, i think it should be closed down and there should be other approaches. we should point out mayor. london breed has been a proponent of the sobering center in fighting. the city's drug problem.

i reached out to her office for this story, but did not hear back in time for deadline. i'm dionne lim abc 7 news. right deon. thank you today contra costa county officials gave the all-clear over that awful stench from a wastewater treatment plant in crockett that so many people complained about officials lifted a health advisory after air readings taken over the past two days no longer detect hydrogen sulfide in the air the stench like rotten eggs was first noticed 10 to get days ago and everyone there said it was bad. it was caused by an operational problem at the plant officials. say the hydrogen sulfide in the air never reached a level that that could be considered dangerous. coming up the game changer for millions of americans what you need to know before buying a hearing aid over the counter. i'm meteorologist sandy patel warming trend underway. i'll let you know how long this is going to last and we'll talk about the possibility of showers in the forecast when abc 7 news

men and some women dropped everything to get rich most didn't find gold but many found comfort in same-sex relationships. what we know is that they were probably quite common, but you know, we don't have the documentation to say how common historian and author susan lee johnson literally wrote the book on life in the mining camps during the california gold rush. she says documenting the lives of lgbtq+ 49ers isn't easy. it's not the sort of thing that you would write home about, but fortunately we have things like diaries we have court records women and children were a rare sight in the gold rush prospectors from around the globe descended on the golden state towns popped up overnight cabins and tents often house multiple miners quarters were cramped and without women many of these men would find comfort in each other we have one

divorce caged her husband he kept bringing men home, and she was not happy about. that and then we have a lot of elusive records so records of of men dancing together or spending the night together and you know, we have to kind of read through what we see there to try to figure out what's going on at a time when there were clear divisions between women's work and men's work minors would have to jump into gender non-conforming roles just to survive and keep themselves entertained when the dingings men would you know put on parties where they would dance together. hopefully they, you know, had somebody who had a fiddle and they would dance together some of the men would take on, you know, the female role in the dance depending on and it might be indicated by something.

he was wearing a patch on his pants or something like that. so that was that was quite common. but there is evidence that some same-sex relationships were accepted and in one very unusual case. we actually have a whole documentation of two men's relationship jason chamberlain and john chaffee came to california in 1849 from new england and would spend the rest of their lives together. they came to the area that was called the southern mines and and mine together. and you know, i'm sure they're not the only couple like this, but they are clearly the best documented the man often opened their home to travelers heading to yosemite travelers refer to the men as what did bachelors and having artistic inclination their diaries never mentioned female companions after more than 50 years the relationship ended tragically john chaffey went to oakland for medical

care. sadly, he died and jason got the news by by mail, i believe. two months later struck by grief jason chamberlain took his own life. hundreds of miles away from those mining camps. san francisco was booming the population exploded from just 500 people in 1847 to 50,000 in 1853. most of those new people were young men migrating to san francisco over half of them from outside of the united states, you know in such an excitement in search of wealth claire sears is an author and sociologist who studied cross-gender dressing among 49ers, so they had to really figure out how to organize their social lives that domestic lives and their sexual lives in the virtual absence of women. a lot of opportunities opened up in that kind of space for a wide range of cross-gender practices and same-sex intimacies. she says we can't put modern

labels on people at the time calling them gay lesbian bisexual or transgender because such terms didn't exist at the time but in the city's rock as barbary coast, there is clear evidence that same sex relationships and gender non-conforming behavior. what's happening? one of the main things that was happening in this area early on in the gold rush. i'm talking about kind of really the early 1850s. there were these masquerade balls. they're really infamous. dances that took place around here but in san francisco where there were some women around and women's clothing was in circulation a lot of men would dress up kind of in full drag to attend these masquerade balls. some women would attend. they would dress up as men charlie parker's was a man from boston. he moved to san francisco in 1849 as part of the gold rush. he became a stage coach driver and died when he was 67 of cancer and during autopsy the karna announced that he was female. when families started to arrive

from the east coast in the late 1850s and 1860s there were calls to crack down on the debauchery in the city to make it more family-friendly the city's board of supervisors passed legislation making it illegal to appear in public in dress not belonging to his or her sex from many people who made their way west the gold rush wasn't just an opportunity to find wealth but to find themselves, you know, they wanted to find their stake in life their independence and the discovery of gold offered that possibility cornell bernard abc 7 news. and as we mentioned october is lgbtq+ history month and you'll find stories from the community highlighted on our website abc7news.com as well as our abc 7 bay area app, which you can download wherever you stream well, it will still feel like summer this week but not for long. sandy has seven day forecast coming up.
