After weeks of delays and debates, the Edmonds City Council passed an ordinance banning camping in public spaces Tuesday evening.

The measure, which passed by a vote of 5-2, allows police to arrest someone for occupying public property after they have refused an offer to go to an available shelter.

This was the fourth time the Edmonds City Council has taken up the ordinance, and it has sparked plenty of debate about how Edmonds doesn’t want to become the next Seattle. Ursula Reutin and Gee Scott both support the ordinance, but also agree there needs to be a more adequate housing plan. There are currently no shelter beds in Edmonds, and Emergency Motel Vouchers are limited to those looking for housing.

So basically more virtue signaling- a theme for Sheng Thao, who does not deserve to be Oakland’s next mayor.
