I'm fed up with homeless encampments. Do what they do in Texas. Drive them 30 miles outside of the city limits and drop them off.

We need to find real solutions for our homeless not hide them in our City Parks

Our parks are for all of us to enjoy. Please stop the destruction of our green spaces!

The environment is more important than giving drug addicts a place to shoot up and defecate.

Enforce the law. Help protect the innocent tax paying citizens that are being ignored.

We approved a huge levy a couple of years ago trusting that parks and the city would protect our parks

We need city leaders with vision and logical thinking to do the job they are paid to do.

Parks should be for the actual, paying citizens of this city. This free-for-all "wild, wild west" approach to governing is backwards, irresponsible, expensive, infuriating, and NOT what we the populace are expecting from our elected officials.

There are more encampments across from the orchard along the stream!

The city needs to manage encampments responsibly, not just dump people in the encampments and expecting the local community to take care of them. This is totally unacceptable.

the city makes an effort to enforce laws on citizens but excludes any enforcement when it is someone who labels themselves as homeless. They are destroying the parks (along with much of the city) with human waste, trash and destruction of trees and plants. I know the city cares little about citizens dealing with these issues in their neighborhood but we need to have clean and safe parks since we can not enjoy our own yards with out needles and human feces being left around by people who are abusing our city.

Public funded parks are not benefitting by the laissez faire enforcement of the law. The presence of these "squatters" are ruining them, and making the public parks less safe for all. I don't know what the best solution for solving the homeless/mentally ill/criminal problem - but letting them camp in our parks is not it.
