Tent city to arrive Friday

Posted @ 3:15 PM

Trucks carrying a tent city for up to 200 fire-displaced residents in the Dulzura are to arrive early Friday morning.

The trucks will be unloaded and the tents erected as soon as possible, said an official with Blackwater Worldwide, the private security contractor pursuing plans to build a controversial military training camp in nearby Potrero.

Up to four 18-by-30 tents tents, cots, a TV and separate trailers containing laundry facilities, bathrooms and showers are being delivered from Blackwater's North Carolina headquarters.

Blackwater will fly in employees to help set up the tent city.
