A retired man living on a boat near San Francisco is suing a local agency that’s trying to evict him from his home to protect a species of seagrass that lines the bay where he lives.

Dozens of people, including Daniel Knight, a 65-year-old retired truck driver, live on boats anchored in Richardson Bay, a shallow arm of San Francisco Bay located in Marin County, California.
