Why don't you bring the homeless into your warm, safe home?

Quite facilitating homelessness, address it, manage it.

Well ...? Does anyone have a proposal for where the homeless should go? Maybe to the missions in Seattle that have shut down. Do you realize that the majority of people are one paycheck away from being homeless? Again ... does anyone have solutions instead of just sitting comfortably in their warm, safe homes and saying, "NO!"

This seems like a solution which will only present greater problems and attract greater numbers of homeless to the area.

The parks are what make Seattle so special. Let's not lose our parks to campgrounds.

The Seattle City Council needs to come up with a better plan.

This is going to ruin the city I grew up in. It's already turned to trash! Stop encouraging it!

The quickest way to exacerbate the homelessness problem is to make Seattle a place that people and businesses want to leave.
Making encampments permanent fixtures of our city will hurt tourism, trade, and turn our green spaces into unsafe, unsanitary slums.

We don't HAVE to repeat Portland's failed experiment... We should learn from the mistakes of others!

Our neighborhood church caretaker was beaten and hospitalized by a homeless man sleeping in Roanoke park. It is now not safe for my 9 yr old to play freely in the area. Please find another solution that ring safety back to our parks.

I am a progressive guy living in a progressive city, but this is too much for me.

This is not a solution to the homelessness problem in Seattle! Please preserve our parks for our children.

I do NOT support CB 118794. Camping in and around are parks should never be legal!
