Rotting pile of rug? Jute? Been there all summer. In the tree plot.

There are homeless encampments steadily increasing in number behind my house and those of my neighbors. There are now several in view of my windows. The amount of trash is staggering, including countless hypodermic needles. Trash is regularly set on fire by the residents of the encampments, producing noxious smoke that smells terrible and is surely not safe to breathe. The city needs to do something about these encampments. Open air drug use within feet of neighborhoods with young children should not be tolerated. I've been a resident of Bloomington for a decade and I'm strongly considering moving out of town due to the city's inability to address this issue. Please do something.
It has been going on a month since the apartment complex here has emptied the dumpsters, trash is everywhere near the dumpsters as people continue to add to it. Every dumpster in the complex is full and it's starting to get into people's yards.
