Bellingham Mayor Seth Fleetwood on Monday introduced a proposal to city council to ban drug use in public places. FOX13
to city council to ban drug use in public places. Fleetwood said open drug use and erratic behaviors were growing problems in the city, especially downtown. He said city leaders saw an increase in complaints from people who live, work and visit downtown.
The mayor said $1 million was invested downtown to hire security, clean up graffiti and sanitation services. Despite those efforts, however, open drug use remained an issue in the heart of the city. Fleetwood proposed the ban on drug use in public places, which would make it a misdemeanor. This ordinance would be similar to the state’s laws on drinking alcohol or smoking marijuana in public.
