    Camping on public property, Ordinance 25-13 (Section 12.24.050)

    Approved · 5-0

    The council adopted a ban on camping and leaving belongings on public grounds, with removal required within 30 minutes of a city request (raised from 15 in the draft), temporary permits for special events from the mayor, and violations as a class B misdemeanor with each day a separate offense. Mayor Daines called it state-required; City Attorney Craig Carlston confirmed funding for shelter and outreach could be lost without it, and Council Member Amy Anderson said the funding supports CAPSA and BRAG.
