I think it's that the "public" you have in mind when you say "public health" excludes homeless kids, prostesters, and other hooligans, drug-dealers, derelicts, etc.
Or maybe when you say "public health," you mean that such riff-raff are dirty, and should be relocated somewhere that respectable people don't have to see them.
Otherwise I can't make sense of what you mean by the words "public health."

He seems to mean that some one, once or maybe more than once it's not clear, took a poo where they weren't supposed to.
This, of course, is the sort of thing that dirty hippies do, even if you provide sanitary facilities, because, well, because, um, they are dirty hippies and they like to poo where they shouldn't poo?? They want to get themselves and others sick, you see, and they want to do stuff that Fox News and the right wing spin machine can use to undermine them and stuff that gives the city a credible pretext for cracking down on them.
They are animals, after all. Who else would protest?
ETA: My office in DC was across the street from one of the many little "parks" created by the L'Enfant-planned diagonal avenues cutting through the city's grid. This particular one, like many downtown, served as a sleeping and congregating place for various homeless people, especially at night. One evening, after a long day of reviewing documents or whatever else a presumably hardworking junior Big Law associate does, I was walking past this particular park on my way home fairly late at night.
I did not notice the man squatting in the shrubberies. Well, at least not until I heard him evacuating his bowels only a few feet away from where I was on the sidewalk. It left me concerned about his diet.
I'm fairly sure he was part of the 99%.
