This type of organization can't afford to own or rent property so public space is the only space available. How does a person eating a burrito make the park hard to use?

By lottering littering and disrespecting others public spaces with entitlement and drug use

You think they are going to make better choices if they are starving more?

Better choices? lol

I think they are self absorbed and don’t think past their needs and in turn couldn’t care less how they affect the people who’s taxes pay for them to live

And lezzbehonest they probably have food stamps and this town has a multitude of resources for food

They can team up with an agency who has a building and dispense their food there not a park that has had millions of tax dollars pumped into rehab to be destroyed over and over again by users
