What I don’t understand is why rather than sweeping all people they can’t just enforce existing laws and cite those actually guilty of offensive littering or public deification. And even if temporary, the addition of outdoor toilets in high camping areas wouldn’t hurt. Of course sweeps aren’t really about solving any of the specific problems associated with camping. Instead it’s just a broad crush stroke of harassment and dispersal. Obviously merely pushing the problem to another part of town is meaningless. Indeed, when there is no discernment between law abiding respectful campers and those who make these messes - eventually people can’t help but wonder why they should try to keep their camps clean and their waste disposal practices proper if no matter what all that happens is they get swept and swept again. Sweeps are not only unfair they are a threat to the health and even the survival of our neighbors who house themselves outside.
