The Roseburg City Council will have first reading of an ordinance repealing and replacing a section of Roseburg Municipal Code regarding prohibited camping, at its meeting Monday night.

Notes from staff says the city has until the end of June to adopt updated ordinances regarding time, place and manner as it relates to camping on public property. This ordinance would prohibit camping at all times at a number of locations in the city limits. It also subjects camping to a number of conditions, where it is allowed.
