Re the Legal paragraph...I want to be sure our language is completely accurate before we put this out beyond this committee.  

We should also take a look at what the City posts online about their sweeps protocol to be sure we didn't miss anything they say they do.

And the other no-camping bans we have...see if there is any language we want to use or request removal of....

Thanks

Thank you Rob and Maureen for putting this together

I've added  a couple of thoughts that didn't occur to me until I was in the document. If others disagree with the parts that are highlighted with blue comments - I am okay with not making those changes.

Most other recommendations involve formatting and grouping ideas (from the SS4A conversation) to make it easier to take in our boat-load of advice. It's GOOD advice - there's just a lot of it : )

Good evening Maureen and everyone else on this response list,

During today’s Safe Sites for All meeting, members of the group had a conversation about the initial draft of sweeps requirements, and I volunteered to try and capture some of the pertinent edits and points that people wanted to include in a new draft. I don’t pretend that I have captured everything in this next draft. I wanted to share this so that others can take a look and share their thoughts.

Please take a look at the attached and offer your thoughts. Our end goal is to create a concise draft that captures how we want the City of Tacoma and other regional government entities to provide appropriate and acceptable shelter options for anyone who is currently homeless.
