ATTY/ORD.0006/CC ORD ANTI-CAMPING – EXHIBIT A REV: 08-20-25 MI Page 5 of 5 3. A physical address where the Personal effects are temporarily stored and instructions for retrieving the Personal Effects; 4. A statement that Personal Effects will be stored for ninety (90) days at no cost to owner(s) of the Personal Effects. The posting of notice required under this subsection shall not apply if the removal of Personal Effects is conducted pursuant to Section 49.5(d) and the arresting officer has reason to believe that all items belong to the individual(s) being arrested. In such cases, the individual(s) being arrested shall be provided with written notification of where their Personal Effects are being stored and how to retrieve them at a later date. (e) City representatives shall itemize and photograph all removed Personal Effects and place such Personal Effects in containers labeled in a manner facilitating identification by City representatives and the Owner and which reasonably protect such Personal Effects from damage or theft. (f) Personal Effects stored by the City which are claimed within ninety (90) days from removal shall be released to the Person claiming Ownership providing they provide reasonable evidence of Ownership, including, for example, identifying the property and the approximate location where the property was left. Presentation of a government- issued identification shall not be required to reclaim Personal Effects. (g) Personal Effects that remain unclaimed after ninety (90) days may be discarded, recycled, dedicated for public use, or given to a nonprofit agency for charitable use. (h) Where the City has a reasonable basis to believe that an Encampment has been abandoned and is not occupied, the City may promptly remove any items that reasonably appear to be garbage. For items that do not reasonably appear to be garbage, the City may post a written “notice of apparently abandoned property” which notifies potentially interested parties that the City believes the site to be abandoned and will discard unclaimed items in no fewer than forty-eight (48) hours where the Encampment is within 200 feet of a Sensitive Area or seventy-two (72) hours for all other Encampments. In these circumstances, the City shall have no obligation to attempt to identify, remove, and/or store any unattended items that reasonably appear to have no value. If unattended items remain at an apparently abandoned site after a notice period of forty-eight (48) hours or seventy-two (72) hours, as applicable, the City may discard, recycle, or donate items that remain. 49.7 Interpretation of chapter. (a) Nothing in this Chapter shall be interpreted or applied so as to create any requirement, power, or duty in conflict with any federal or state law. (b) Nothing in this Chapter shall be interpreted as excusing any individual from complying with other provisions of the City’s Municipal and Zoning Codes.
