Mercer Island Approves Ordinance Barring People From Camping on Public Property | Seattle RE Podcast
Mercer Island City Council on Tuesday approved an ordinance barring people from camping or storing personal items on public property.
The proposal -- which passed in a 6-1 vote -- was approved after hours of public comment from people on both sides of the issue, with some arguing the proposal criminalized homelessness and didn't address the underlying problems, and others saying the city needs to make sure parks remain safe and accessible at all times.
The ordinance makes camping on public property on Mercer Island a misdemeanor penalty, which could result in a $1,000 fine or 90 days in jail. According to a presentation given during the council meeting, the ordinance "preserves public spaces for their intended purposes."
