No Vacancy!

All corners of the park are reserved. Geez-us.  As quoted by Rank Security Officer, John, "Enslen Park is a mess!", or "Under Siege".

THUMP, THUMP, THUMP, is this mic on?  Hello?

What about ticketing bike trailors? How about issuing fines for sleeping? I am not talking about the occasional nodding off of a dad as his child plays.  I assume there still are kids playing at the Southern quadrant of Graceada Park while the North side is reserved for blankets, naps, trailors and recycling.

Wow, tough crowd.

Give our patrol that us neighbors pay for the ability to scatter these vagrants, or at least being able to ask if they utilize services.  If they actually use services, then they get a pass.

Pretty sure that if any of you dignitaries lived across the street from this it would be taken care of.  Problem solved.

Excuse me Mr. Mayor, but F**K Salida.  Let that one go. Sorry, I rarely cuss on this site, but annexing Salida means "More industry and jobs" to the area.  Who wants to LIVE here when this is what they see on the streets and parks?  Get tough and take care of this issue first! Lets get a positve vibe in Modesto before we ask others to move here.

Don't forget to tip your wait staff, and if you would, feel free to fill out a COMMENT card on your way out.

(BTW, the lady in red wandered in circles on my lawn before a voice in her head told her to head North). S.A.D.

My vote...

 Just in case I cannot make it to tonight's "Community Engagement" forum downtown, my 8 votes goes to whatever eliminates this.

The biggest black eye to Modesto is the homeless and vagrancy issue. My thought is that it shows a city that does not give a damn about it's image. When a city does not care about its image is what leads to crime and gangs.

Just driving around town you see the homeless, vagrants and mentally ill shuffling around.  It is the vagrants who all look like they have bad intentions on their faces.

If the city wants to continue with their services for the homeless, then fine.  Lets find out who utilizes the services given to them.  For those who refuse to use the services, then they need to move on.  It is up to the city to figure out who those are with help of the Department of Mental Health and MPD.
