Continued · 4-0
The amendment to Chapters 17.13, 17.14, 17.15 and 17.62 would govern shelters, homeless resource centers and behavioral-health receiving centers in public zones. Speakers included a member of the Homeless Council who asked about food preparation, a Bear River Mental Health Services representative who asked that the receiving center be removed, and Bear River Health Department staff who asked for a continuance over a 300-foot proximity restriction; another resident worried it would push the homeless population to the city's edges. Council members questioned the 300-foot rule and Council Member Jensen said three people had phoned asking for a continuance. The item was continued to May 16.
