It’s also a tragedy-of-the-commons type issues. Nobody else can use the park if they are camping there. They’re legitimate safety concerns due to the mental health issues and drug issues that are prevalent in the homeless. To pretend these aren’t real issues is stupid.
I’m being honest here. This is an issue that is a challenge to solve, but I still don’t want a bunch of homeless people in my neighborhood. I’d like to find a solution and I’m not afraid of my tax money is going to help them, but tent encampments are not the solution IMHO…
