The Fresno City Council has approved a new ordinance that bans camping in public places, aiming to address the issue of homeless encampments in response to Governor Gavin Newsom's executive order. The council's decision has prompted mixed reactions, with supporters citing public safety concerns and critics arguing it is inhumane and ineffective. In Vista, a similar ban has been reinstated after being paused during the pandemic, with Mayor John Franklin emphasizing the need for shelter outreach before enforcement. However, many homeless individuals have reportedly declined help, raising concerns over the effectiveness of the ban. Advocates argue that enforcement without adequate support services will only exacerbate the existing homelessness crisis. Both cities are now tasked with balancing public safety and the needs of their vulnerable populations amidst increasing homelessness.
