Austinites have a series of propositions to mull over. Most contentious are Propositions B and F.
Proposition B, would reinstate the city’s camping ban. Those in favor of the ban say it would force the city to act in solving the homelessness crisis, adding, allowing people to sleep on the street is inhumane.
Those against say, the camping ban is simply going to see more homeless sent to jail. They say it would also make it harder to help those on the street as the will go back into hiding.
