Unhoused folks are gathering in the tree line behind the soup kitchen and setting up camp. This is a residentially area that backs up against the mailboxes of the homes in the area. Found many needles and have often heard screaming and fighting in early hours of the morning.
Every night the sidewalk is taken over by an encampment of individuals sleeping on the sidewalk. The area gets littered with needles/syringes, garbage and more. The nightly inhabitants use the surrounding properties as toilets and leave fecal messes to be cleaned up. Last night there was a fire pit with an active fire in it, as it was a cool night. This is a recipe for disaster, not to mention that these people should not be sleeping in the sidewalk public ROW. The police need to be involved as this is after business hours. Attention to this matter is very much needed and appreciated.
This Washington and Grimes street light that was recently repaired is obscenely bright. The cool LED is a migraine trigger for at least one resident, and the brightness is disruptive to local wildlife. Replace with a warm colored light with minimum required lumens for street safety.

Is there a valid reason for a "Temporarily Experiencing Homelessness" person to be carrying a Kobalt bolt cutter on Kirkwood near the library? Does Ace Pawn rent these now? Why would such a person need to be carrying a bolt cutter?
socks full of shit laying in alley for days. the pile is getting bigger
I am not sure if this is a parks issue or the street department. I was at the farmers market yesterday and there are several large holes in the parking lot. A friend that was with me from out of town actually tripped in one and fell down. They have white paint around them so maybe this already being addressed. Thanks!
Nightly encampment of folks on sidewalk/public ROW after closing of parks. Needles/syringes, feces, trash, chairs/furniture etc. are all over the area - on public & private property as a result of the nighttime inhabitants. Due to late night activity, this may need to be addressed by police.
305 S Euclid Avenue has a light that is always flashing. Very disorienting when walking after dark
