Only one homeless camp of no more than 100 people will be allowed in Spokane under rules adopted by the city council.
The rules approved Monday also ban the camp within 750 feet of a library, park or day care center. The camp must be sponsored by a group with a business license.
The Spokesman-Review reports the camp must be surrounded by a 6-foot fence and have a portable toilet and hand-washing station for every 20 residents. Drugs, guns and sex offenders are banned.
