On Tuesday, Everett, Washington, a city 30 miles north of Seattle passed a controversial local ordinance that will bar people from sitting or lying down in a ten-block swath of the city.

The ordinance passed in the Everett City Council 5 to one. It covers a section of the city's industrial area. Violators will either face a $500 fine or 90 days in jail when it goes into effect.

Everett's population of people experiencing homelessness has grown in recent years, and according to local news station KING-TV. And an encampment was set up along the street of the Everett Gospel Mission, a homeless shelter. Everett's local government said there are almost 200 people experiencing homelessness in the city, and that since 2016, that number has risen.
