View Comments This week, Melbourne Mayor Paul Alfrey hosted a workshop on homelessness in the city.  Addressing the crisis of homelessness is absolutely critical across our county, but the initial steps taken at the meeting were deeply disappointing.  Instead of focusing on necessary care for our neighbors who are struggling, the Council’s first action was to move forward an ordinance that would criminalize certain acts of asking for help and offering help to those in need on local streets, medians and intersections.  For example, the proposed ordinance would result in up to a $500 fine or 60 days in jail if you give a bottle of water through your car window to a pregnant woman, elderly veteran, child, or anyone holding a sign while your car is stopped at an intersection. Both the giver, and the recipient, would face these penalties.
