First, we’re not catering to the unhoused, they are simply part of the community within which we operate. We’re not here to run a needle-exchange.

Regarding ‘knowing’ them, there are too many new faces each day of late. We’ve never seen this many unhoused people. From what they tell us, Richmond is a destination for them because rural municipalities ship them here, knowing there are more resources for them. They also independently seek Richmond out for the same reasons.

Ok I am not trying to say you are doing anything wrong it is your place and you have complete rights to do whatever you would like. However you say in the original post you cater to the unhoused they say you do not cater to them that they are part of the "community within which we operate" if that is the case why not just refuse them access? I understand you are trying to be nice but if you really wanted to you could just refuse correct? Why post here if you were not wanting to have an open discussion on the situation at hand?
