Fencing put up around the encampment has apparently been ripped open on the west side of the Ship Canal Bridge encampment. WSDOT officials have said that they will repair the fence.
This comes as parents and residents in the area are sharing their concerns about crime, drug use, and fires.
Don McKenzie was one of them– he told KIRO Newsradio two of his children attend the John Stanford International School –which sits only a couple hundred feet from the camp. “We know that there is shelter space available, there’s over a 20% vacancy rate in our homeless shelters right now. People need to move into those places and take the shelter that is offered to them, it’s not an appropriate place, it’s not a healthy place for them to be living next to the freeway, and it’s not good for our community,” MacKenzie said. “It’s not good for our kids.”
“It seems like it’s addressing the symptom and not the root causes, we’ve got such a problem with housing in the city, and it’s just a function of the real inequality we have in Seattle and cities like it,” Lucero said.
