Bach understands that squatters behind her home need assistance and stability. She recently spoke to a man who holds a day job and tries to keep the area around his ten clean.

She and other local leaders believe a solution would be to create a designated campsite for the homeless in the city, where much-needed resources and outreach can be concentrated in one place.

“You can put your tent here, here’s bathrooms, dumpsters,” she said. “They’ve come here and told them to move a million times, they don’t move.”


Not my back yard.........................

Sort of like a "palestinian refugee camp" ...

Well then, I stand corrected, where was this piece in the article. These details would be helpful to know. Sorry if there was more to this story I didnt see. My days of falling on my sword to make a point ended when I chose to have children. Call me a coward, but Im not going down unless its the last resort to protect my children’s lives. Protecting a dream home be damned.

When she said, “You can put your tent here, here’s bathrooms, dumpsters,” she was referring to what would happen if the city had a "designated campsite in the city."

Right now, the police keep arresting the trespassers and then releasing them. Obviously, that strategy isn't working.
