Some are arguing that Pacific Beach Library, at 4275 Cass St., has become a regular homeless hangout at the community’s expense. Answering those concerned citizens, a City library official noted libraries serve everyone, adding enforceable regulations provide security for all while punishing violators. “The Pacific Beach Library recently changed their rules to better accommodate the homeless population,” said PB entrepreneur Mike Spangler.
