City officials suddenly support homeless tent cities, car camps in Sacramento neighborhoods


Sacramento city officials have long resisted a "safe ground" model to homelessness; now, local government officials have changed course, allowing homeless individuals to camp on a pre-determined area with essential utilities provided. This "safe ground" model brings houseless people in the area into one restricted area that contains bathrooms and security guards, giving the city more time to create permanent solutions to homelessness.
