The policy needs to be reasonable, unless you want home owners taking matters in their own hands (you don't).
Policy or not, seeing a steady stream of strangers "roam" through your property next to your (vulnerable) family members will generally do more harm than good.
Also, how would you deal with unintended property damage?

A reasonable policy would probably specify at least 50-100 meters from buildings, which would outlaw roaming in suburbia.
