If approved, it would have little immediate effect, leaving the city and county struggling to gain traction with short-term efforts, including offering services to those living on the street and finding placements in existing housing.” living in your car became illegal: for the next 18 months minimum it is no longer to reside in your vehicle form 9 pm to 6 am on any residential streets as well as in locations considering their occupancy to be a threat to public saftety, for example near day cares, parks, or schools
