The person in the City you what to deal with is Joe DeVries Assistant to the City Administrator, he is the interdepartmental coordinator for homeless encampments. As you may guess he very busy. My take is that homeless people are people looking for help. The vagrants and bums at your location want cash for there habits they will take anything and what they do need or want is part of the never ending debris trail the leave behind.

I don't care how it is addressed...get them into shelters, get them enrolled in drug treatment, move the encampment to the corner of College and Claremont. But it can't be in the middle of the roadway.
