The city treated them as abandoned personal property (as opposed to abandoned real property), probably because they could move it. The people behind these homes then made it politically costly for the city to keep doing it, so they returned it. I suspect they could sue the city for the solar kits and win, but then you are tying up more resources that could be used to help people. That said, I'm skeptical on how this will work, in large part because of the heat here - LA saw over 100F today. These could get as hot as a parked car and cook the occupants. (Hoping I'm wrong, but friends "tough shed" sure got scorching in SFV.)
