Agree with all said above and would add that I have experienced the same issues in West Olympia. The problem of homelessness is everywhere, but the city and police have brushed all of the taxpayers off. We no longer have any say in the matter and get zero response from the police, city politicians, and city/county support staff. It’s always the same thing, the brush off response “we are aware of the situation “, then nothing happens. I finally contacted some land owners directly and asked them to take action on vacant parcels where drugs and homeless people were camping. Thankfully, the land owners took action. This is only going to change if we boot the current leaders out of office and get people who will take action to stop the current leadership vacuum. I went to a city in eastern Washington earlier this summer and witnessed this behavior being handled totally differently. Police were responsive and did not allow this behavior to happen.
