Descrição
We have been watching a homeless encampment on International Blvd. at 85th Avenue grow larger by the day. Tents have been erected, garbage piles up and prostitution, drinking and drug use are in plain sight. While sitting in our vehicle waiting for the light at the intersection to change, we watched a man bend over & defecate on the sidewalk. We then saw a woman get up and off a man's lap and wipe herself. This "activity" is only two blocks from the Rise Community School with young children passing by daily. The sidewalk camping has been in place for over a month and goes ignored by law enforcement & other city departments.

I emailed both councilman Reid and Councilwoman Brooks and here is the reply from Brooks:
Thank you so much for your email. I'm sorry that your neighborhood is plagued by these issues.
The more detailed information you can provide the better. Please call the OPD nonemergency number first to report theses issues. Then let the Councilperson know. It sounds as if most of the activity you reference is in district 7.
Best regards.

District 6 & 7 both encompass International Blvd between 82nd and 85th Ave. And really, contact OPD? That's just a push off because they are not going to respond to a victim-less crime. If we all flood both her and Councilman Reid's emails and phones concerned about this, maybe something will happen.
