San Diego police began enforcing an unsafe camping ordinance Monday July 31. The ordinance bans encampments on all public property if shelter beds are available. However, there are certain areas like near transit centers and homeless shelters, where you can’t camp regardless of shelter space. Mayor Todd Gloria warned it will take time to see a difference. "This process will take weeks, if not months," Gloria said. "This is not an overnight thing. You will continue to see tents in the city today and tomorrow, but my goal is a few months from now, you will see far fewer.” Gloria said it's a scaled approach. To start, police will focus their efforts near select schools and parks heavily impacted by encampments before moving to other areas where they're not allowed. Shelter is offered at every point of contact. MORE: https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/local/san-diego-begin-enforcing-city-camping-ordinance/509-f1ca719b-771e-43f0-bff5-166d4c47010e
