Dear Fellow members of the city council,
I am writing to express our deep concerns regarding the issue of homelessness behind our house, particularly along the
nd
railroad tracks. On July 2, we experienced a distressing incident when a homeless person attempted to enter our yard
at approximately 2:00pm in the afternoon. Despite my immediate call for the police assistance, no one arrived to
address the situation. This has raised serious questions about the appropriate course of action for residents in such
circumstances. The safety of our children is at stake, and I fear leaving them unattended even for a moment in our back
yard. In addition to the security risks, we are faced with a range of unsanitary and hazardous conditions causes by the
presence of individuals on the railroad tracks. The individuals engage in drug use and have been known to throw
unsanitary toilet paper and human waste over our house. It is disheartening to note that despite our efforts to report
these incidents to the city, we have seen no tangible improvements over the past few years. Instead, we are often
redirected to report the issues to the railroad, which has yielded no significant changes. As a responsible homeowner
who dutifully pay our taxes, we have reached a point of exhaustion with this ongoing problem. We believe it is
imperative for the city to acknowledge and address this issues promptly. It is evident that the current approach is
inadequate, and we have lost faith in our local police department, who appear to only respond to tragic events rather
than proactively prevent them. We urgently request your guidance on what needs to occur for city to take decisive
action and alleviate this persistent problem. We trust that you share our concerns and will actively pursue solutions to
ensure the safety and well-being of our community. Together, we can make a positive impact and restore the peace of
mind that has been diminished by these ongoing challenges.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
A concern resident of Anaheim
