Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill would ban unauthorized camping or sleeping in public spaces across North Carolina. Local governments would generally be prohibited from allowing this, but they could designate specific properties for temporary camping for up to one year if certain health, safety, and sanitation standards are met and approved by the state. These designated areas would require restrooms, running water, and coordination with health services, and would be subject to state oversight.
