I find it interesting that you apparently have the belief that such encampments should or need to exist.

  All right, what do you think the people populating such camps should do? Where do you think they should go?

    Who are these people? Why are they homeless? Where are their families? Do they want to not be homeless? What is preventing them from not being homeless? Before you try to answer the question of what they should do and where should they go, I think you realistically need to answer these questions.

      Let us assume for the sake of argument that these questions have reasonable answers (different in detail for each such person), that the homeless people that live in such encampments do not have a viable alternative to 'living rough', and the best solution they were able to come up with (for whatever reasons) was pitching a tent in a public park. What alternative are you going to offer them that doesn't present barriers they can't surmount?
