MONTEREY CITY LEADERS HAVE APPROVED A NEW ORDINANCE TO KEEP THE SIDEWALKS CLEAR OF TRANSIENTS. THE LAW PROHIBITS SITTING OR SLEEPING ON SIDEWALKS DURING SPECIFIC HOURS OF THE DAY. THE ORDINANCE PASSED THIS WEEK FOLLOWING COMPLAINTS ABOUT PEOPLE LYING DOWN ON THE CITY’S WALKWAYS. THE CITY NOW BANS SITTING OR LYING ON SIDEWALKS IN COMMERCIAL AREAS BETWEEN 7 A-M AND 9 P-M.
