We are over-run with drunks and drug addicts, yet this perfect location for a treatment facility goes unused. This is insane. I'd much rather see my tax dollars go to effective treatment that removes addicts from the people, places and things that they associate with their addictions than pay for fences and private contractors to lock up the bathrooms every night.

It's a pity Eugene doesn't have a competent, professional city manager or at least some competent senior staff. Addictions can be treated, but we can't fix the flaw in our management staff since it is well known that one cannot fix stupid.
