Portland's Mayor Says More Shelter Beds Coming

(Portland, OR) -- Portland Mayor Keith Wilson says more shelter beds are coming. His goal is to open 15-hundred beds by December, but they're currently not even halfway there. Wilson told City Council he's considering other options, including short-term rentals, empty beds in adult care facilities and other private providers. The city has not been enforcing a camping ban, because there aren't enough shelter beds.
