(The Center Square) – Conservatives on the Spokane City Council hope that the third time’s the charm as they plan to reintroduce a popular camping ban this month that the state’s highest court struck down.

Nearly 75% of voters approved Proposition 1 in 2023 to outlaw camping within 1,000 feet of a school, park, or daycare. The law only applied to certain parts of the area at specific times due to a lower court ruling , which had prohibited enforcement unless cities provided enough shelter beds for the homeless.
