LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles City Council has passed a sweeping anti-camping measure to remove widespread homeless encampments that have become an eyesore across the city.

The measure passed Thursday was billed as a humane way to get people off streets and restore access to public spaces in the city with the nation's second-largest homeless population. It wouldn’t be enforced in some instances until someone has turned down shelter.

If requires a second vote later this month.

Homeless advocates says there aren't enough beds to house the homeless, and it will be impossible for people on the street to comply.
