San Diego officials have proposed a ban on encampments for people experiencing homlessness. The city is also planning to enforce a law that prohibits people from living in their vehicles. Also, San Diego’s homelessness czar is leaving her post.
S1: It's time for roundtable on KPBS. Today , we're talking about a proposal from local leaders to ban camping in public places in San Diego. It's a response to something that can be hard to miss the large number of people living in encampments throughout the city. We asked you , our audience , what you thought of the proposed ban.
S1: And Gail Holland from the Los Angeles Times is also here with us. Gayle , it sounds like Los Angeles also has a camping ban that's already in place. S1: And Gary , we know that you spoke with one homeless advocate who says that this proposed public camping ban is sort of redundant. S1: We'd like to hear from you about if you're affected by homelessness , give us a call at 452-0228 and leave us a voicemail. Coming up , we'll hear some questions from our audience about this proposed camping ban.
S6: And we know that there's definitely been some delays on there , too. And Gary , we want to get your perspective here , too.S6: Roundtable voicemail. S1: Lisa you know , Gayle brought up this idea that in Los Angeles they're using kind of these tiny homes. I remember seeing that in headlines that that was something that San Diego was going to do. Whatever happened to that.
S5: Well , I think part of it is that no lawyer wants to go to court for the right for an encampment to sit next to a preschool or an elementary school. I mean , there would be a huge consensus that there should not be encampments while kids are walking to and from school or getting dropped off by their parents.
