I'll take stink over spread of disease.
There is a maintenance crew. They've developed special materials and paint to not absorb orders, etc.
They tried Porta-Potties which were vandalized and destroyed.
As said -- it's an existing problem -- a realistic solution was needed.
Urine is sterile while it is in the body. The moment it comes out of the body and hits oxygen and other elements is when it starts to not be sterile which is why it starts to smell - bacteria start growing
It can contain the bacteria/virus of some very serious diseases--SARS for one typhoid for another herpes is yet another and there are more. (Yes there are a few thousand cases of typhoid carriers in the US that shed the bacteria in their urine for months.)

I feel the solution is not realistic the solution should look to what we want for the future of our country, do we want to become India or Africa.

You can raise your kids in a fairy tale world or you can educate them about some of the harsh, ugly realities. Your choice.

You yourself indicated the type of person who pees in the public park will probably not even use these facilities it will just say to the ones who used to walk to the nearest restroom "no need pee here", as well as imho open a door for molesters and perverts to be safe doing their thing.
