‘It Looked Like A Dump’

Jason Minzghor couldn’t believe his eyes when he checked out the homeless camp between Interstate 90 and Seltice Way a few weeks ago. “The garbage was knee-deep in some areas,” the operations manager for the Idaho Transportation Department said. “It was a health hazard — human waste, dead animals … It looked like a dump.” ITD hauled off 16 dump-truck loads of items this week from its sloped, tree-filled property just west of the small Kootenai County Cemetery and near the eastbound Huetter rest stop between Post Falls and Coeur d’Alene. State workers spent 30 hours loading and picking up the garbage and clearing brush at the site. Minzghor said ITD posted No Trespassing signs a few weeks ago to allow the transients time to gather any personal belongings they wanted and some time to move on/ Brian Walker , Coeur d’Alene Press.

Question: Anyone feel sorry for the transients who are being moved about by these camp closures?
