L.A to give people living in cars on Venice-area streets 'safe overnight parking'

In an effort to deal with the rising tide of people living in cars and campers on the streets of Venice and environs, the city of Los Angeles will soon begin seeking an agency to operate a "safe overnight parking" program aimed at linking the occupants to social services and, eventually, permanent housing.

The program would be similar to efforts in Santa Barbara and Eugene, Ore., where participants sleep in their vehicles in designated parking areas and gain access to counseling and other services, including help finding subsidized apartments.

In Los Angeles, bathrooms, showers and trash facilities would be made available for participants, who would sign a contract and agree to a strict code of conduct.

The question is, could you abide by their code of conduct?

I bet most of them will just say, "Fuck it. I'm going to keep washing my hair in the toilet at Starbucks."

I am trying to decide if this is the same as just letting people set up a tent city or a shanty town, or a step above. maybe they could mark the location on maps for tourists.

just offer them bus tickets to get the hell out of Cali, but thats just my 2 cents.
