MEDFORD, Ore. – After the Greenway Camping Ordinance vote, a Medford City Councilor is receiving backlash for comments he made on social media. He has now deactivated his Twitter account.
Councilor Kevin Stine took to social media about protesters outside Medford City Hall. He tweeted saying “Living in their heads rent-free”. This comment angered homeless advocates all over Twitter and then silence.
“I will support this ordinance because I have love and compassion,” said Councilor Stine in a council meeting earlier this month.
Kevin Stine declined an interview, but said in a statement about the situation:
On April 1st and 2nd, the Medford City Council passed an ordinance that would make Medford, and the Bear Creek Greenway a safer and more family-friendly area for everyone, especially during fire season. I spent hours talking to people, reading emails, and seeing the Greenway myself, before coming to the decision to support the ordinance.

Just a short drive up Interstate Five through Medford yields a view of a large number of unofficial campgrounds and tents.
And the Medford City Council recently decided to crack down. The council met in special session to pass
an ordinance banning camping along the Bear Creek Greenway during fire season, but the ordinance goes much further, laying down a number of additional restrictions on where people can sleep or otherwise spend the night, including under bridges. And tents are prohibited; tent campers could be charged with a misdemeanor.
