IN BRIEF
Seaside City Council revises
homeless camping ordinance
SEASIDE — The City Council has formally
adopted a revised homeless camping ordinance with
amendments that extend the length-of-stay for home-
less campers and RVs.
A third and fi nal reading on Aug. 8 extended hours
for overnight camping to six consecutive days before
campers are required to move their tents and RVs.
The ordinance, which went into eff ect July 1, had
required campers to enter the camping area at 8 p.m.
and leave at 8 a.m., when the gates would be locked
for the day.
The City Council revised the policy in late July.
Campers may now stay 24 hours a day, six days a
week, as long as they obey conditions of the ordinance
and keep their sites clean.

Oregon Supreme Court chief justice
removes entire public defense commission
Oregon Supreme Court Chief Justice Martha
Walters will remove all nine members of the Public
Defense Services Commission.
Last week, the board voted 4 to 4, with one
member gone, against removing Steve Singer, the
executive director of the Offi ce of Public Defense
Services.
Walters, who is a nonvoting member of the com-
mission, spoke strongly in favor of removing Singer,
calling him untrustworthy, needlessly combative and
slow to address the state’s public defense crisis.
