Unacceptable. Camping outside someone's backyard should be against the law. If they want to live like this they need to find a campground somewhere. This should be removed today and made to stay away.

Please camp grounds have rule and there are rules that most normal people follow. So what do the advocates do give them tents and tell to camp where ever they want. Maybe its the advocates that need a little jail time and we can sublet there house's to the so called homeless while they are away.

I totally agree. That would be an idea. Wrote to THE MAYOR and Ms.McElhaney and can't wait for a response. Probably be waiting for many years. They all need to stop with excuses . If they can't come up with a solution they need you step down. At least try.

Absolutely, the camping in the park is simply against the law, which the city chooses not to enforce, leading to more encampments. Simplyblu you might also want to contact Councilmember Dan Kalb, who represents this area and lives only a few blocks from the park.

Thanks Theresa. I just might do that.
