12.14.010   Purpose.
   Public property within the city should be readily accessible and available to residents and the public at large. The use of these areas for camping purposes or storage of personal property interferes with the rights of others to use the areas for which they were intended, and is deleterious to the public peace, health, safety, and welfare, in that it obstructs intended uses for the public at large, contributes to blight and can cause damage to public property. The purpose of this chapter is to maintain public property within the city as accessible to the public at large, to keep such areas in a clean and accessible condition, and to maintain the public peace, health, safety, and welfare.
