Show Notes
The Village of Liberty approved a local law on Aug. 21 to prohibit camping or sleeping in Village parks, sideways, and other public areas. The local ordinance came with mixed input from community members. Some residents said the law was necessary for tighter public safety regulations, while others said the law criminalized homeless residents.
Radio Catskill’s Kimberly Izar was at the public hearing held right before the full Village Board passed the local law and brings us this report.
