How about providing trash receptacles for these folks until the city can establish a dedicated campground in a more appropriate location, away from our neighborhoods and off our streets (which should be a high priority!)?

Don't get why they don't provide trash cans for the homeless. They get free garbage pickup anyway so put out a few dumpsters, it might help some

They need to be moved this a heath and safety issue. From the camps I seen and helped clean up the city/ taxpayers will have to supply dumpsters. Keeping them confined anywhere will violate there civil rights so do not expect them to go away. As far as the taxpaying residents civil rights there seems to a huge double standard going on and not in our favor. Start fining these vagrants for the laws they are breaking and give community service. If there is work involved they will leave.

Agree David..

IMO, offering transients a dedicated campground would not be a violation of civil liberties, even if combined with zero tolerance for camping on the streets or for belligerent behavior.

It's not a matter of "keeping them confined," or of regulating or judging their lifestyles. The City needs to stop viewing this as a matter of "social justice" or a "housing crisis." It's a land-use question involving a nomadic subculture -- a matter of finding a way to "live and let live."
