The city made it worse. In a nut shell, they wanted the homeless to come from the woods and be a part of the community. Camping allowed. When you entitle people to take a dump on the door step of your business, they will do it, and it's a serious problem. Law enforcement has been told to turn a blind eye.
Here's how they think, the leaders of the community. The Mayor takes a vacation to San Fran and Seattle to figure out how to deal with homelessness, realizes that Austin could benefit from fed $$ and throws out flyers and starts buying motels. The Mayor is an atty, his wife deals in real estate. Total corruption.
