PMG PHOTO: JAIME VALDEZ - Tents pitched in a parking lot at Westside Commons, formerly know as the Washington County Fair Complex, where the county has opened a camping facility for unhoused people to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spreading in unofficial camps.
Hillsboro now has an official campground for homeless, er, unhoused, people. Seems like camping in a parking lot would be uncomfortably hot, but what do I know? The story in the HillsboroNewsTimes mentions COVID-19 ten times, like it is somehow more important than having a place to sleep, but what do I know? Not very much apparently.
