Concerning unlawful camping.

This bill prohibits camping on public property in Washington state unless authorized, responding to the U.S. Supreme Court's *Grants Pass v. Johnson* decision. It bans camping within 1,000 feet of schools, parks, day cares, or shelter facilities (with posted signs), and requires police to confirm nearby shelter availability before issuing citations for camping. Violations start as small fines ($50) for first offenses, escalating to misdemeanor charges for repeated violations. The law mandates referrals to therapeutic courts for repeat offenders and prohibits citations when shelters have available space, aiming to balance enforcement with access to shelter.
