Growing encampment and city response causes concerns for people near Hubbard Homestead Park 

I used to live in one of the complexs by the park and when it got hot they would be camping in the bushes until the park cut everything down. It's crazy how much worse it's gotten down in Northgate. The park was really nice lots of families and they would even have little community events but I doubt they're doing that now. We gotta clean this city up ASAP! We gotta reclaim our city.

once someone's mind is defunct like a lot of these homeless, it's nearly impossible to repair to a condition that can be (re)integrated back into society

City don’t care

The root of the problem? Drug addiction and WA state, the county's and the city's ideological unwillingness to address drug addiction with a rational approach.

So sad that Seattle can't get it together. How about getting different people into office. I moved from Seattle in 2015 and I see it now and I'm shocked.

Yep right behind Target its a big problem get rid of it !!!! The monitoring g is not working

Apartment managers are smart and nice.

Moving to Florida because of incompetent and corrupt politicians who won't address the crime and homeless issue.

Hey don’t we want to be San Francisco North?

Forced Intervention is the only solution. Camping and living on public or private property should have a city ordinance that gives enforcement teeth. If the individuals don't vacate the area in 24 hours, they should be offered housing alternatives if qualified or if criminal charges apply be detained. Held in a detention center for a 72 hour evaluation. Once evaluated, mandatory 2 years in jail for any outstanding warrants or judgements. Provided Court mandated drug treatment in a detention center for low level offenders and users. Or State Mental facilities where they can be evaluated and treated or, at worst, committed. While being detained offer online accredited education and job training in construction and skilled trades which pay living wages. Once released, provide temporary housing while job placement. You can even go through the process a second time for another 2 years. However, screw up and 3 strikes rules are enforced. Mandatory 10 years in a penal colony on a remote island in the Alaskan Aleutian Islands building infrastructure and shelters for colonists. They can grow and process seafood and harvest natural resources for consumption and the free market to help pay for it all. Bundle up, though. It's pretty cold out there.

Im concerned with all the oligarch encampments setting up across the USA

Skaters fall down.. it’s skating … they accidentally fall on a needle with fentanyl.. could be fatal….

There is lots and lots of land here in America, there is no reason we can't give them a few acres here and there.. and they can make their own tent cities.... AWAY FROM HOMES AND BUSINESSES

Pretty sure they voted for that.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Tent cities are Just starting. Get ready. Learn some Spanish too.

Vote different.

shelters are a joke

It's lack of affordable housing and excess corporate landlord profiteering.

Now thats the problem......don't feed the racoons ok 🙄
