Oregon Homeless: The members of the City Council in Portland, Oregon, postponed a vote on a contentious budget measure that would finance the construction of designated camping areas for homeless people after residents voiced strong opposition during public testimony. The measure in question would provide funding for the construction of such areas.

It has been proposed by Mayor Ted Wheeler that $27 million of the city’s budget be allocated to the construction of a network of huge outdoor locations where homeless individuals would be permitted to camp. A prohibition on camping would be implemented gradually once six authorized camping places had been developed over the course of 18 months.
