This bill amends the existing Homeless Bill of Rights to enhance protections for individuals experiencing homelessness. It establishes that no person's rights or access to public services may be denied based on their housing status, ensuring equal treatment in public spaces, employment, medical care, and voting. Notably, it introduces new rights, including access to trash receptacles and toilet facilities for maintaining clean and sanitary conditions, and affirms the right to privacy in temporary housing, such as tents.

Additionally, the bill mandates that police and public works departments adopt written policies and procedures to ensure compliance with these provisions, recognizing the reasonable expectation of privacy for homeless individuals.

The bill outlines procedures for managing encampments on public property, requiring a minimum of sixty days' notice before any enforcement action to vacate individuals. This notice must be in writing and inform individuals of how to retrieve personal property left at the encampment. It also stipulates that reasonable alternatives for relocation must be made available in collaboration with outreach workers prior to enforcement actions. Furthermore, any personal property found at encampments must be maintained for at least thirty days after enforcement, except in cases of health or safety hazards.

The bill establishes penalties for violations, including fines of $2,500 per infraction, with collected fines directed towards housing stabilization services. Overall, this legislation aims to strengthen the rights of homeless individuals and ensure their dignity and access to essential services.
