A recent increase in the number of complaints the <br />department had received about homeless camping led to the work session. Chief Kerns introduced <br />Michael Wisth of the Planning and Community Development Department, Sergeant Carl Stubbs of the <br />Eugene Police Department, and William Wise, director of St. Vincent de Paul’s First Place Family <br />Center. Mr. Wisth and Sergeant Stubbs provided an update on the Homeless Car Camping Program. <br /> <br />Mr. Wisth first noted that Eugene Code Sections 4.816 and 4.816 governed camping in Eugene. Section <br />4.816 allowed for car camping in public and private parking lots in Eugene if certain criteria were met. <br />The City established the Homeless Car Camping Program to oversee the ordinance. He provided a brief <br />description of the program and the City’s management approach to homeless car camping and <br />emphasized the coordination that occurred between the City and St. Vincent de Paul. <br /> <br />Mr. Wisth shared pictures of some managed homeless camping sites, mostly located on public parking <br />lots as well as on private parking lots owned by businesses and churches, and noted the screening process <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council June 13, 2011 Page 1 <br /> Work Session <br />
