In a recent decision, the Supreme Court has reversed the Ninth Circuit's ruling on camping bans in public spaces. This decision, arising from the case City of Grants Pass v. Johnson et al., allows municipalities to enforce ordinances prohibiting camping, sleeping, and overnight parking in public areas without violating the Eighth Amendment. The ruling highlights the ongoing challenges faced by cities and counties as they consider their mix of policy tools for addressing homelessness.
