Dozens of protesters were Occupy Philly in the park outside Philadelphia City Hall on Monday after ignoring a period Sunday night to leave, confident that police enforcement of the eviction and vowed to stand firm if they did.
Mayor Michael Nutter told the protesters on Friday that they have until 5 pm Sunday to collect tents and other creature comforts that they have used during your stay at Dilworth Plaza in early October, two weeks after Borrow Wall Street in New York, prompting supporters to erect camps in urban centers across the country. Borrow Wall Street was moved in mid-November, as well as others take the camp faced similar fates.
Borrow Philly maintained warm relations with Nutter, until about 10 days ago, when the mayor announced that the group was to block $ 50 million renovation project scheduled for Dilworth Plaza on the march in a public park. At a press conference, Nutter accused of reneging on promises to the group at the beginning of the occupation to comply with city regulations and does not violate the repairs.
He also mentioned about the rape in the camp as proof that the crime was a serious problem for the protesters, as well as for other people in the area.
Relations soured after further Occupy Philadelphia rejected the offer of the city that the protesters to move to nearby Thomas Paine Plaza. Offer would not spend the night, limiting protests at 9 am to 7 pm
The number of tourists dropped by two thirds from last week, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer, with approximately 100 tents remaining Sunday night, along with the protesters who vowed to stay. Philadelphia Daily News saw 87 tents.
"We expect people to pack up and leave," Mark MacDonald, a spokesman Nutter said that, according to the Inquirer. "I'm not going to argue that the city can do at any time on the road since that time."
Both reports quoted police saying that he never had plans to raid the park and forcibly dismantle the camp, as happened in New York recently. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, the police were in opposition to Occupy Los Angeles, whose tourists were to resist the deadline to get out of the park in front of City Hall in early Monday.
From their camp on Wall Street in Manhattan Zuccotti Park was demolished, the protesters in New York tried to keep the momentum, gathering every day in the park and holding rallies and protests.
Gwen Snyder, Borrow Philly protesters, said the protesters in Philadelphia to meet later Monday to discuss their next steps, according to Daily News. She suggested that those could include moving to a new place, taking in an abandoned building, or statement of a sudden "flash" trades.
