As of January 1, HB 1365 allows residents and business owners to sue local governments if unhoused individuals are permitted to sleep in public spaces. This law, supported by the Supreme Court's Grants Pass decision, has pushed municipalities like Palm Beach County to grapple with urgent questions about homelessness and its solutions.
One proposal gaining traction is the use of one-room cottages to provide housing. But where would these cottages be located? How much would they cost? And could they truly break the cycle of homelessness?
