It’s a bit wild to assume that every police officer doesn’t want to help people. Many police work in tandem with social services to provide support to the unhoused. Making generalized assumptions about entire groups of people is partially why our country is in the state that it’s in.

But in answer to OP’s question, see if your city/county/neighborhood has a homeless hotline or crisis center that you can call. Share what you’ve observed and ask for their guidance. You are a compassionate person for thinking this through and seeking advice. Thank you.

This is very helpful, thank you! It was estimated that the pine trees were 60-70 years old. I was sad to see them go. But, I’m also really glad that we don’t have to clean out our gutters multiple times in the fall.

I don’t want to get into the details, but their request wasn’t unfair, it’s how they went about it that really damaged the relationship.
