SALT LAKE CITY — A business owner said Friday homeless problems in his neighborhood were the worst he had seen since beforeas city officials acknowledged the effects of a larger homeless population statewide were being noticed downtown.
Evans said in addition to illegal camping, he had witnessed more concerning behaviors of open-air drug use, defecation, and even outdoor sexual activity among the homeless population and he said some individuals seemed to have a tendency toward violence. He hoped the city would step in with more stringent measures, including a zero-tolerance policy for illegal camping."I think a lot of folks in the neighborhood, in the city, have seen for the first time, or maybe not in their recent memory, more people camping or outside than they have before," said Andrew Johnston, director of homelessness policy and outreach under the Salt Lake City Mayor's Office.
