This is nothing but reckless. I would remind the City Council of the Seattle Park District. Failure to adhere to the the provisions of said district may be found to be unlawful. Funds are being raised for legal fees to sue the City Council should it become necessary.

I do not want any more Homeless Encampment's and do not want to increase spending on this problem because we have thrown so much money at this problem and it has only gotten worse. Get these people out here and quit inviting them here to leech off us property owners who work hard and contribute to the community enough is enough!!!

Our homeless neighbors need mental health and drug treatment, permanent housing, and for their unsafe and illegal encampments to be cleaned up in a manner that is respectful to them and to their housed, Seattle neighbors.

I am not sure that we are trying to replicate Detroit, Puerto Rico or just Portland. This is race to the bottom as far as safety and quality of life.

Stop screwing around and locate a huge piece of land and build something similar to Hooverville.
How about on Harbor Island?

What we need is to remove her from office, she is single handedly undermining the City and does not understand anything about basic economics.

Stop enabling the bums. Yes, some people need help. Give it to them. The rest can get a job.
Get rid of the encampments.

Camping on any city street should be illegal.

If you wouldn’t want it in your front yard, we don’t want it in ours either!

Please do not allow more encampments. They are dangerous, unkind to the homeless who reside there, and a blight on our city. No one benefits from this.

I grew up in Seattle back when it truly was the Emerald Jewel. No more. We travel cross country every year and no longer do we proudly claim Seattle as home. Seattle has become an embarrassment. People who ask us about visiting Seattle are strongly discouraged and warned they are taking their lives in their hands. Now due to the crime, homeless encampments and mismanagement of this once most beautiful city in the country it should be avoided at all costs.

I don't live or work in Seattle. I live in Tacoma and used to frequently visit Seattle but it has become a place I no longer want to visit.

Let's clean up this mess NOW. Encampments happen because Seattle supports and encourages it.
