Many people actively using drugs in public at this parking garage. Why is this illegal behavior allowed to continue?

Close to a dozen people openly using drugs on the Bank street side on the parking garage behind Handy's two people actively shooting up right at the entrance. Unable to safely walk through to get to my car. Called dispatch they said they would "try and send someone"

Encampment on Buell street sidewalk next to church has been growing over the weekend. Ground now littered w syringes, sidewalk blocked and not available for use, this morning open use of drugs and needles. Children and families walking to school and preschool. Clear this encampment which is interfering w public use of the sidewalk and parking.

Needles left after this gathering. Church staff/other volunteers are good with picking up however, this is a drag to see this street turn into a no-risk stoop to do drugs. New people all the time, not sure where they are coming from.

Madame Mayor, is this what you mean when you wish to provide services to the street people (many of which are not homeless but just come downtown to buy and use drugs and party). How about providing some support for the homeowners who have live with this chaos and clean up.

Parks Department: Pomeroy Park needs to have some enforcement monitoring. Recently There have been groups of 2, 3 & often more unhoused individuals using the park to sleep off their drugs & using the children’s playground for their bathroom needs as well as using drugs right in the park ! This photo only shows remaining drug paraphernalia . Oh and campfires as well! This must be addressed asap. Pomeroy Park is a very active wonderful neighborhood park filled w/children all ages all day long. Cmon Burlington.

Please bring the trash cans back to the baseball dugout in Leddy Park. People drink and eat in the dugout In the winter time and make trash. On Sunday there was one bag of beer cans. On Monday there were two bags of cans. On today Tuesday, there are three bags of cans.
Perhaps you can just put a trashcan and recycle bin inside the dugout for the winter? Because people are definitely using it to get out of the rain and cold. That shouldn’t be a crime, but littering is, and let’s help people out by giving them a trashcan.

this is gnarly
drugs. @#$%. food....

Is it legal to be naked as long as you were that way when you left your home? What if your home was the street? Gazing at the naked people who are openly using drugs only brings questions that probably don't get have legal precedent. What I do know, is that there's now a lot of trash including mattresses occluding the sidewalk.
