People camping on public property and on public rights-of-way create a public health and safety hazard due to the lack of proper electrical and/or sanitary facilities. People without proper sanitary facilities have openly urinated, defecated, and littered on public property and on the public rights-of-way. Use of public property for camping purposes or storage of personal property interferes with the rights of others to use the areas for which they were intended and creates public health and safety dangers to the City’s sensitive ecological areas, including the City’s water sources, through illegal dumping and improper disposal of human waste. People cooking with open flames while camping or habitating outside endanger the lives and property of those nearby through uncontrolled fire. (Ord. 3028, 5/23/23; Ord. 2921, 4/9/19)
