Let’s Talk with Tacoma City Councilmember John Hines About More Camping Ban Plans (Oct. 6, 2022)
Manage episode 343394109 series 1950685
Next week, the Tacoma City Council will take up the issue of whether to make living on the streets illegal around temporary shelters and waterways. We’ve talked about bans before, and making it a crime to be homeless, and we will talk about it again.
City Councilmember John Hines joins host Evelyn Lopez to discuss the idea of using criminal punishment as a way to encourage neighborhoods to welcome temporary shelters. Yes, the City could create the shelters first, but that’s not the plan.
Here’s a link to the City Council meeting for Oct. 11 when the proposed ban will be open for public comment (see item 12 on the agenda): City of Tacoma – City Council (legistar.com)
Listen and let us know what you think.
