Please do what the homeless consultant recommended. STOP spending money on homeless encampments.

This area already struggles with drugs and crime- why add to it?
Find a better solution!

It is time for accountability. Without accountability, no more money should be forthcoming. We need to know what's going on

House the ones who want it and provide on site-counselors, 3 hots and a cot. Sweep the ones that refuse help, KEEP SWEEPING THEM, and make it as miserable as possible for them to camp anywhere in the city, especially in parks playgrounds, and residential neighborhoods. Eventually word will spread that we're no longer tolerating this crap, and the problem will start to go away.

Seattle Housing and Resource Effort, The City of Seattle homeless not for profit that runs the homeless camps for $880,000 a year does not file their 2015 and 2014 taxes correctly does not list their liabilties and assets and file their 1099 correctly and has kited checks. The City of Seattle does not care. Matthew Little

Once again the Mayor and city council seem intent on providing "solutions" with out the necessary thought required for the solution to become effective. Please take the time to make well informed decisions based on data, not "feel good" emotion.

Every single one of our council members should be replaced. You all have no clue! Clearly you don't care for these unfortunate people and think less of them by allowing them to stay outside and not do anything real to help them get out of their situation.

We are concerned for our safety and decrease in home value in the surrounding areas.

For this kind of money surely we can do better. My taxes are high enough and if they continue, you may need to put me up in a tent. Enough already!!

We are overtaxed already and there has been no movement that shows any success or any hope of success by the current administration. More taxes and more camps are not the solutions.
