BOZEMAN — On Tuesday night, Bozeman city leaders held a second vote on the ordinance that would limit urban camping on city streets.

With some public comment for and against, city commissioners passed the ordinance in a 4-0 vote.

The ordinance will go into effect in 30 days.

The ordinance requires campers to move every thirty days; that’s up from the original five days in the initial ordinance proposal. The civil penalty was also lowered from $100 to $25.
