Is the city really just trying to keep pedestrians safe, or is Dallas moving to criminalize panhandling?
the court asked to have everyone back on April 27, and to submit additional arguments by May 1.
“We have plenty of evidence to show that this is not a smart move for the city of Dallas,” Bazaldua said ahead of the City Council’s vote last Oct. 26. “This is a bad position to put the taxpayers in because we will end up being in a bad position to defend this.” The suit mentions multiple city committee meetings where the ordinance was discussed as a means to deter panhandling. But even the city’s stated intent behind the ordinance – pedestrian safety – isn’t supported by the facts, Fife said.
