As a tax payer and resident of Deschutes County I am tired of my tax dollars being used to clean up the filth the homeless people leave behind. If this is a deterrent for them living there then we won’t have to clean it up again. Thus saving tax payer dollars and the rocks are a better look.

I don’t support the idea of a community living within my community that doesn’t have to abide by the laws and litters carelessly. Along with supporting a community that isn’t contributing to ours in any positive manner, using up costly resources.
