Rio Grande - Since there seems to be some differences of opinion on whether or not there is a homeless camp in the woods in Rio Grande, would it not be wise of Middle Township officials to go and visit the site and investigate that? If there is one there, it should be cleared out, as a matter of public safety and health. Unfortunately, the homeless are quite often mentally ill, or addicted or both, and don't always make good choices to protect their own well being. At that point, government has an obligation to at least try to move them into safe, secure shelters, to protect them and the public.

Moderator's Note: 
They are not in a camp. They are hidden in the woods. According to a discussion with a homeless man, they hide from one another so no one steals their stuff.
