As much as I don’t like seeing broken down campers with all their belongings shuffled from one place to the next, it’s tome to stop complaining. Let’s work on some solutions.
Time to pave the area next to the river and make an actual parking lot out of it. Back in only. Posted signage for parking rules and regs. Then get some beat cops to come down and panhandle for the city to enforce the regs they are already supposed to be enforcing. If it makes dollars, it makes sense, right?

What is the purpose for such a large parking shoulder along 115th? Could someone from The City answer this please? This seems to be only encouraging RVs and trailers to set up here.
Secondly, this part of the river is very special, and critical for salmon getting acclimated to the salt/freshwater, depending on their lifecycle. Planting native tree and shrubs along this stretch or shoulder would help out immensely with the millions of dollars spent in restoration efforts elsewhere. Instead we have people dumping their camper waste tanks and throwing trash in the river!
A wooden guard rail like the City put in on 42nd would be a start.

@DJS.....Another great idea... Maybe you could cut the amount of parking down to 25% for people that actually enjoy hanging next to the river and for overflow of the duwamish riverbed park. Create a few back in spots less than 25' long so the campers can't park there and set up some nice picnic spots amongst the freshly planted native tree's and shrubs. The shoreline could use the added root mass for support.
For some reason, people think that the homeless problem is gonna go away. It's not. It will only get worse as rent and property gets more expensive. When I moved in to tukwila 20 years ago, my house cost 180k. It just appraised for 475k. Minimum wage has not inflated to keep up with the cost of living. These are big city issues we now get to deal with. Solutions and working together are they only ways we'll get rid of homelessness so that our rivers can stay protected.
On that note, how come no one complains about the steel recycle yards that are on the duwamish river still polluting the water way. It seems these homeless folk are bearing the brunt of 60+ years of pollution on the river.
