On Sunday, a street camping ban took effect for certain places within the City of Phoenix.Dozens of those experiencing homelessness live near the Arizona State Capitol, in an area known as The Zone.“We come most of the time every Sunday because there’s not a lot of people that feed during the Sundays,” said Jinky Sy, aSurprise resident.Sy travels every week from Surprise to help feed those without a home, passing out water and other items. But this Sunday, a new rule is in effect.
I just don’t know where the City of Phoenix put them because I know there was a lot of tents here before,” said Sy.But those without a home, like Patrick, say they feel the new law is yet another setback.“I think that’s just another stupid law made up by man just to try and push the homeless out. Homeless people are people too. Remember, they were once in an office, they were once in college,” said Patrick, who has been unhoused for four years.
