text: So uhh here's some obvious ideas to improve downtown at night: Regular hourly nightly patrols by walking city policemen (not red hats that have no power to directly address any illegality - pointless!),  a fully staffed police office (instead of an empty police office and unoccupied police vehicles - again pointless!  is this a duck hunt?  decoy?), street-level CCTV Cameras, shared business community security standards, privatization of business fronts/sidewalks to report and enforce: aggressive or violent behavior, laws and regulations regarding public mental health, solicitation (of any kind), camping, loitering...  The list could likely go on and on.  When will enough be enough?  When will change take place to vastly improve the culture of Downtown Eugene?  This situation should not be tolerated.  It should not be allowed to fester and grow...  If you want Downtown Eugene to be classy and profitable then you have to fully invest in creating a hospitable environment.
