The town has recently banned sitting or lying on its sidewalks. A shot fired at the homeless, who are an unsightly blemish on the tourist town's public areas, reserved, apparently for paying customers only.
The town claims its homeless and impoverished population has become problematic, blaming "aggressive panhandlers" for endangering the safety of the public.
The ordinance was voted in, 4-1 on Tuesday. Perpetrators will be fined $50 to $100 if they refuse to cease using the sidewalks as a place to sit. They are allowed one warning.
