From Facebook, Ken Neubeck:

"People who can sleep without interruption and be rested are going to be less prone to acting out than those who are being rousted by police and end up sleep deprived. Identifying areas of the city and designating them as safe and legal places to rest, eat, and sleep is urgently needed....

Unless Eugene takes steps to allow people who are homeless and unsheltered to self-shelter, we can expect a local federal law suit which DOJ will support. Should the City of Eugene spend taxpayer money on the City Attorney defending the camping ban, or accede to the DOJ's position and instead spend that money working to shelter and house more unhoused people? This question needs to be made a matter of public discussion, not left to the discretion of the City Manager or the Council."
