With Moscow's McConnell blocking stimulus, there will be 100Ks of evictions, foreclosures yielding people sleeping rough
It'll be appealed, but the Supreme Court refused to hear a similar case last year. I'm not sure there's enough pro-camping cities to call it a trend, but it does seem to be more prevalent now than say five or ten years ago.
https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2020...pass-case.htmlA federal judge decided last week that the Southern Oregon city of 37,500 violated its homeless residents’ Eighth Amendment rights by excluding them from parks without due process and citing them for sleeping outside. The ruling builds on 2018′s landmark Martin v. City of Boise case that said cities cannot make it illegal to sleep or rest outside without providing people with sufficient indoor alternatives.

Hard to see how that's avoidable now, but it's worth pointing out the biggest burden here falls on the states. I've heard a federal eviction ban would only bind federally owned properties, is that right?
yep, only 25% of rentals are Federal,
so 75% not subject to Fed eviction ban

and just generally speaking, would recommend this guy's youtube channel. really fascinating (and somewhat depressing) content on urban/suburban development and the problems that come with the way we've done things
one of his earlier videos
Sounds like a good plan to me.
"Homelessness on this level just happens in capitalistic society as large as ours.
Why should we even need a plan, it just happens, tough luck."
psuedo Darwinism and all that rubbish...
