Police in Nevada City are now forcing homeless people to get a permit so they can sleep anywhere on public land, in the woods, or even in their own cars.
“A new law would give Nevada City the power to hand out permits to a small group of homeless, which would give them permission to sleep in public. While the new ordinance would give some homeless a place to stay, it would tell others, mostly the troublemakers and the criminals, to stay away.
“I come down here every fall,” said Bob Barton, who chooses to be homeless in Nevada City.
For Barton, the new ordinance that would essentially identify law-abiding homeless and reward them is music to his ears.”
Police Chief James Wickham says that this is a measure to “manage the homeless population” in the area. The new law will fall under a “no camping” ordinance and there has been no indication as to how the permits will be distributed.
Especially with so little permits being handed out, it is obvious that this will result in a violent expulsion of the areas homeless. Also it is important to add that when one area implements these kinds of policies there are probobly many others following close behind.However, it has been said that a vast majority of the towns homeless wont be given permits, with actually less than a dozen permits being handed out in total. The police chief directly admitted that “It just basically means you can’t set up a tent. You can’t live in your vehicle. You can’t live in the woods in Nevada City.”
