I respectfully object to the above amendment.

1) The wording removed with L 3:11 should stay removed.

2) I understand the Councilor's concerns, however the benches classified in the bill are undeniably associated with the philosophy of "anti-homeless architecture." If we are seeking to generally forbid hostile design, I would argue that striking the bench line from the legislation muddles its definition (not that there is a concrete definition of this architecture - nor a measure in place to enforce banning certain architectural designs).

I would ask Councilor DKrol to respond to these objections.

Mr. Speaker,

On your first point, I agree. When I wrote the amendment, the L 3:11 had not been passed yet. I did not want to mimic that language in case L 3:11 was rejected and my amendment could be seen as a hostile attempt to push through the amendment.

On your second point, I believe that the needs of the physically impaired could be compromised by the wording of the bill. Perhaps if we could agree upon some language making it clear that the middle bar would have to be installed in the design with the purpose and intent of obstructing homeless people from sleeping there.

How about this?

Object. We have not yet received a response from Councilor DKrol regarding his amendment and whether my proposal is suitable. If it is, I would ask the Councilor opt to table his amendment and incorporate my change into a new one.

With approval from the amendment's sponsor, Amendment L 3:13 by DKrol has been tabled in its present form and is updated with the text I proposed. As this was introduced and discussed without objection, the amendment was added to the bill.

AYE, we have a chance to really start something revolutionary in aiding those left destitute by the structure. This reform would go a long way in aiding the people by doing what works instead of what is based on false prerecognitions.

Of course, this has become law already constitutionally speaking, but for formality's sake:
