  1. Sleeping outdoors is one thing. Setting up household outdoors with tents, chairs and a full shopping cart items adjacent to businesses as and residences, and blocking the sidewalk is indeed problematic. And those who work or reside in affected building have a valid concern.

    Should encampment spaces be developed by cities and of so who pays for maintenance and necessary services such as toilets. Taxpayers? Federal grant? Non-existent surplus city funds.

    And the mental illness factor cannot be ignored. Some will accept shelters if available. Others will refuse, preferring outdoors.

    1. Many refuse because they can’t engage in substance abuse at the shelters. Ask anyone who works at a shelter.

    1. How does this comment resolve the issue? Let’s focus on working on solutions rather than making snarky comments. I am sure the homeless would appreciate that.
