SAN MARCOS , Calif. -- The Supreme Court 's recent ruling on homelessness could soon be felt in one North County community.
Weeks after the Supreme Court ruled on banning homelessness encampments on public property, the City of San Marcos is making speedy moves to enforce the ban on a local level. San Diego County's most recent “Point in Time Count” shows that in the last year, the number of unsheltered people in San Marcos jumped from two to 35 -- a 1,650% jump.San Marcos officials said the city is facing challenges like fire hazards, environmental damage, public health issues with human waste, and traffic obstructions, which have impacted emergency vehicles.
"People will move and just continue to move around," Herring said."It doesn't help solve homelessness. It actually prolongs homelessness and makes it harder, more expensive; makes people actually experience more trauma, and makes it harder to bring people back into community."
