Second Reading and Final Adoption of an Ordinance Enacting Article 10-14 of Chapter 10 of the Fargo Municipal Code Relating to Camping on Public Property: Resolution Regarding Ordinance Prohibiting Camping on Public Property and Rights of Way in the City of Fargo Adopted:
Assistant City Administrator Brenda Derrig reviewed edits made to the Resolution and attachments since they were first presented. The Resolution now includes a Whereas for Housing First Implementation, a Whereas for reporting back to the City Commission, the addition of Public Building under critical infrastructure, the addition of sidewalk and the addition of Parks to the enforcement priority, she said, and riverbank setback was added to the expectations. Following conversations with the Police Chief, an edit was made to the 5th bullet point on the Homeless Camp Expectations, she said, removing exact distance and instead adding “to ensure consistent movement towards housing” which will encourage engagement with Downtown Engagement Center (DEC) for services and staff. She shared a map showing priority enforcement areas, which are adjacent to the trail system and within the 100 feet of the bridge or critical infrastructure. Sixty-two online comments were received, she said, with the greatest concern being the fees, and many comments indicated support of the Housing First Program – Affordable Housing.
Community Liaison Chandler Esslinger outlined how the Ordinance and Resolution connects to the implementation of Housing First, allowing critical steps to occur to remedy the issue of homeless camps long term. She shared a flowchart showing the following steps: Camp Management and Engagement to Connection to Services and Triage to Prioritization for Housing First Pilot and Diversion, which are all towards the goal of systematic reduction of homeless camps. She said engagement will help prioritize for the Housing First Master Leasing, as there are not enough units to house everyone.
Beth Olson said she runs a Housing First Program at Presentation Partners in Housing and serves on the Board of Directors of the FM Coalition to End Homelessness. She said she supports the proposed Ordinance and Resolution.
Rocky Schneider, Downtown Community Partnership, said businesses are impacted by the growing number of homeless Downtown. A 90-day provision would be beneficial so the temporary first step does not become a long-term solution, he said, and he asked that a designated camping area be considered.
Olivia Fischer said the assumptions that have been made that unhoused citizens are dangerous and less deserving of basic human rights should alarm all citizens. She said it is time for the City to commit more resources, commit to approving Housing First and to show more compassion.
Deb Frederickson said scattered camps should be consolidated to a central location for more efficient allocation of resources. She suggested a work program rather than fines. She encouraged continued funding of the Engagement Center and moving it from Downtown.
Senator Tim Mathern said he is social worker in Fargo and supports Housing First. He said there are issues of individual rights, historical social injustice, Medicaid coverage for mental health and substance abuse, housing for the Housing Finance Fund and churches.
Commissioner Piepkorn said he supports this Ordinance as it will improve public safety. He said the Resolution is contrary to the Ordinance and he will not support it.
In response to a question from Commissioner Kolpack asking about the importance of the enforcement and fine, Assistant City Attorney Ian McLean said the maximum fine for an infraction is $1,000.00; however, it could be less, $1.00. or even suspended. There have been 350 infractions in Municipal Court in the past year and only a handful have had the maximum fine. The key with an infraction, he said, is that it allows the Police to remove someone from the property who is violating the law; however, there is no possibility of jail time. If it were a noncriminal citation, he said, they could not be arrested or removed, they would only be handed a ticket.
Ms. Derrig said the point with the Resolution is to work through engagement and if that is not successful then there would be removal of a camp.
Commissioner Strand said he has detailed questions but that does not mean he does not support this. He said the possibility of a $1,000.00 fine raises flags and he wonders if there are other ways to do it. He has toured camps, he said, and City staff know these people and have evolving relationships. He said the people should be fed, need garbage cans, porta potties and should have 911 capable cell phones. Many are local and many are there due to evictions, so if the goal is to provide housing, preventing those situations also needs to be addressed in the future. He said he supports the Ordinance; however, he wants to be able to address the infraction aspect if needed.
Commissioner Kolpack said the intention is for the documents to be dynamic with an ability to change. She would like to see regular reporting on the progress and outcomes, preferably monthly. The community needs to tackle this complex issue together, she stated.
Commissioner Piepkorn moved to waive second reading at length of an Ordinance Enacting Article 10-14 of Chapter 10 of the Fargo Municipal Code Relating to Camping on Public Property.

Second by Turnberg. On call of the roll Commissioners Piepkorn, Turnberg, Strand, Kolpack and Mahoney voted aye.
No Commissioner being absent and none voting nay, the motion was declared carried.

Commissioner Piepkorn moved that the proposed Ordinance Enacting Article 10-14 of Chapter 10 of the Fargo Municipal Code Relating to Camping on public property, which was placed on its first reading August 19, 2024, be now placed on its second reading and a vote taken on the question of its final passage and adoption.

Second by Kolpack. On call of the roll Commissioners Piepkorn, Kolpack, Turnberg, Strand and Mahoney voted aye.
No Commissioner being absent and none voting nay, the Ordinance was duly passed and adopted.

Commissioner Piepkorn said the Ordinance the Board just passed will make the Downtown safer; however, he will not support the Resolution.

Commissioner Kolpack said there is not room in the jails, nor are there beds available in shelters. The problem will continue to get worse, she said, and it will not go away on its own. It is a problem for the entire community, she said, and this first step is the start.

Commissioner Turnberg said it is a complex issue. She said she agrees it is a big problem; however, the Resolution is confusing and she does not agree with it.

Commission Strand moved the Resolution Regarding Ordinance Prohibiting Camping on Public Property and Rights of Way in the City of Fargo be adopted:
WHEREAS, In accordance with Fargo Municipal Code Article 10-14, the Board of City Commissioners of the City of Fargo approves the following enforcement priorities, rules and expectations for camping on public property and public rights of way.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of City Commissioners of the City of Fargo:
1. Camping in or within 100 feet of critical infrastructure (under bridges, lift stations, outfalls, city buildings, water intake and pump house), within 100 feet of a bridge embankment, on public sidewalks, and within 30 feet adjacent to public bike paths is strictly prohibited. An enforcement officer shall provide notice as provided by Fargo Municipal Code §10-1403 and immediately cite persons in violation of the removal notice. Appropriate steps will then be taken to remove the unlawful campsite.
2. Camping in, or within 100 feet of a Park established by the Park District of the City of Fargo (Park District), is prohibited pursuant to Resolution of the Park District adopting Fargo Municipal Code Article 10-14 and Resolutions and Guidelines adopted by the Board of City Commissioners of the City of Fargo.
3. Camping in areas posted as No Trespassing or No Camping by authorized City personnel is strictly prohibited.
4. Campsites within the service area of the Downtown Engagement Center in compliance with all Camp Protocols and Expectations, attached hereto as Exhibits A & B, and not located in a priority enforcement area, shall be monitored and persons occupying such camps shall be expected to engage in such services available.
5. Persons who have been warned that their conduct is not in compliance with the approved Camp Protocols and Expectations will be subject to citation and Notice of Camp Removal in accordance with Fargo Municipal Code
Article 10-14.

Second by Kolpack. On call of the roll Commissioners Strand, Kolpack and Mahoney voted aye
Commissioners Piepkorn and Turnberg voted nay.
The motion was declared carried.

Department Updates on The Arbors:
Commissioner Strand said that there is a community of people living at The Arbors apartment building who communicate serious concerns regarding safety and public health conditions. He said the Human Rights Commission has addressed the issues many times and it is time to bring it before the Board of City Commissioners. He asked for updates from City departments about calls for service, and the nature of working relationships with the Arbors community and management, any issues left in the balance not being addressed and are unresolved, and the best advice for stepping up attention and service to that community.

City Administrator Michael Redlinger shared a summary of the information about current responses from the Departments are the Police and Fire Departments, Fargo Cass Public Health, HR-Employee Safety, Planning and Inspections. He said in the last year and a half the Fire Department had 302 responses, a third of them were EMS calls. The Code Enforcement Task Force continues to work on mitigation to avoid future calls, he said. Employee safety measures include home health provider training for multi-unit buildings such as the Arbors, he said, including performing client services in pairs. The Planning Department serves as a facilitator, gathering information for other agencies and coordinating, he said. The Inspections Department does not currently have open cases; however, they maintain regular communications with tenants and the property manager. An out of area property manager presents challenges in communication, and a general decline in the property has been noticed, he said, so there are reoccurring inspections in all buildings.

Police Captain Bill Ahfeldt said the boundaries for the Arbors are within 6th to 9th Avenue South and 23rd to 21st South. He said it includes 8 apartment buildings, 4 parking lots and a park/playground and has gone through several owners and management companies, he said, and in the Spring of 2023, there was an abrupt rise in service calls, mainly due to a number of gang and violent individuals living off lease there. At that time a major operation was done with the Street Crimes Unit with surveillance and an enforcement operation resulting in 4 felony arrests, 4 misdemeanor arrests, a stolen vehicle recovered and drugs seized, he said. None of those arrested lived at the Arbors, he said, they were crashing at the Arbors or coming in to commit crimes such as dealing drugs. Extra patrol, Street Crimes Unit and partnering with federal partners and Task Force officers helped nail down what was causing crime to go up, he said, and helped affect arrests. Outreach was done, he said, and engagement with the management company helped them to enforce their own rules on the leases. Joint planned enforcement operations were done in September 2023 and March 2024, he said, and he shared a graph showing 3,091 calls for service with 8% being proactive activity by the PD. A major underlying issue there is drug addiction and drug use, he said. A continued presence and relationship with management is important, he said.

Appointments to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority:
The Board received a communication from Mayor Mahoney recommending that Thomas Jefferson and Chris Larson be reappointed to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority.
