PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — The Portland City Council has approved
Mayor Ted Wheeler’s revised public camping ordinance.

Under the new ordinance, unhoused people who refuse access
to reasonable, alternate shelter may face up to a $100 fine and/
or up to seven days in jail.

The ordinance was passed on an emergency basis so it takes
effect immediately, but the mayor says it could take several
weeks before it’s enforced.
(THEN AGAIN, MAYBE NEVER)
