Topeka is expanding its restrictions on where homeless people can stay. At the City Council, on Tuesday, Feb. 4., the governing body approved new changes to a citywide camping ordinance. Two big changes are a 10-day limit for how long someone can camp on private property and no camping within 100 feet of public infrastructure. The city is also clarifying that language to include roads, utilities, government buildings schools and healthcare facilities. That was reduced from 500 feet under the previous ordinance.
