The Los Angeles City Council on Wednesday, July 27, delayed until next week a final vote on an ordinance that would ban homeless encampments within 500 feet of schools and daycare centers.
Despite the vote being delayed, several members of the public spoke in opposition to the proposed ordinance Wednesday, and homeless advocates gathered outside City Hall to protest before the meeting. Those areas include within 2 feet of any fire hydrant or fire plug; within 5 feet of any operational or utilizable entrance or exit; within 10 feet of a loading dock or driveway; in a manner that interferes with any activity for which the city has issued a permit or restricts accessible passage as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act; or anywhere within a street, including bike paths.
The amendment given tentative approval July 1, and approved previously by the council’s Homelessness and Poverty Committee, is a blanket ban on encampments within 500 feet of all schools.
