But city councilmembers are considering a ban on overnight camping – or even sitting or lying on the ground – in front of city hall between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.
"This is not just about sweeping people from site to site. This is about providing opportunities for folks so they can come off the street permanently," said Councilmember Phil Pluckebaum, who represents the downtown district.

City council will discuss the proposal during Tuesday's meeting starting at 5 p.m.
