San Diego city officials are considering a ban on camping in public places to reduce the number of homeless encampments on city streets.
The measure is being proposed by San Diego City Councilmember Stephen Whitburn, who represents downtown San Diego. The area has seen record numbers of unhoused residents living in encampments. San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria has also voiced support for the measure.
KPBS Roundtable wants to hear from you for an upcoming show. What do you think about how cities in and around San Diego are handling the homelessness crisis? What do you think is missing in the conversations on homelessness? Do you agree with a ban on camping in public places?
