Mayor Lisa Brown unveils replacement to anti-homeless camping law struck down by state Supreme Court
The Spokesman-Review May 1, 2025
“Voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 1 in 2023 by a roughly 50-point margin. On April 17, the state Supreme Court overturned the law, arguing that it exceeded the legal limits for local initiatives, but did not rule on the merits of the case.”
“Under Brown’s replacement plan, officers would give anyone illegally camping on public property seven days’ notice ahead of any enforcement action, Assistant Police Chief Steve Wohl said. During that time, the city’s homeless outreach team and other service providers would offer services to the camper , and would not write them a ticket if they accept the offer of help. The law also would not be enforceable if the person simply left the area and did not return until after the officer left.”
Try This Over At The State Park
Next year on a spring break weekend:
Skip the reservation and fee for an assigned space. Pick your own spot when you are ready. If anyone asks you to move, tell them you are living in your home. Have the Police Chief and social workers come out and talk to you. Have Park Rangers try to reassign people who paid for a reserved spot months in advance. See if you can be a squatter for seven days.
