I am writing to express my disagreement with the expansion of Everett’s “no sit, no lie” ordinance (“Mayor given new authority to expand Everett’s ‘no sit, no lie’ zones,” The Herald, May 4. The proposed expansion would not only increase the number of areas where it would be criminal to sit but it would also prevent people from doing outreach and providing food and water in these areas.
