A camping ban may reduce the homeless tourism numbers or their length of stay, but the remaining homeless will simply become more emboldened about violating existing restrictions.

As someone on disability finding affordable housing is one of the most difficult things I face in columbia.

I hear you, if the rent raises again I might find myself homeless, it;s pretty dumb now for a 6+ decades old 2/br trailor.
If one drives virtually anywhere in Columbia you will see numerous people at intersections with signs requesting help. My wife works in mental health and she is inundated with people coming in for assistance. Ask anyone working in the mental health field & they will tell you the same thing.

Beggars have existed in human society since the dawn of recorded history. It's not climate change.
Government is what is making housing expensive. Want less expensive housing? Get Government out of the way.

The property owners, are being inundated with tax increases, and higher costs, to maintain the properties, too. The government, is doing nothing to help them.

If you want houses to be cheaper, build more houses (make it easier for developers to build houses).

But only if it was fully enforced.
ReplyYes , I believe if you make it inconvenient for homeless people to set up camp , they will move on to another city. I do support homeless situations , if they take responsibility by checking into drug free shelters.
ReplyKeep being super nice and more will come.
ReplyMost of what I hear on the news is about the homeless people, not much is reported on the infringement, the stress, nuisance, violence, drug use, filth and garbage that the decent law abiding, tax paying citizens are forced to endure! They need to stop enabling bad behavior! The focus seems wrong!
