What a shameful ordinance! Does anyone have the names and contact information of these council members? A “permanent encampment” outside the homes of these insensitive politicians might require more activist commitment than can practically be generated and sustained, but I like the general approach. Perhaps a more doable campaign could focus on disrupting their sleep, since they want to criminalize other people for sleeping, by students driving by their homes and honking their horns at random times in the middle of the night. I would suggest such a campaign be preceded by notes delivered to the homes of their neighbors, apologizing for any disturbances (since the neighbors’ sleep would likely also be unavoidably disrupted) and suggesting they ask their neighboring council members to withdraw their support for using the law to criminalize sleep, dropped off at the homes of those neighbors along with gift certificates (maybe $20 each?) to a popular local business, or something of similar value. This would require raising some money from supporters of the campaign (toward which I would gladly donate), but could go a long way toward minimizing negative backlash. Ideally the noise would be even more specifically targeted toward the offending council members, for instance by using noisemakers directly under their windows, but that would probably involve a higher risk of apprehension than drive-by honking, and so would be suitable only for the more daring activists. The notes to neighbors could also offer to call off the honking campaign against particular council members upon the activist group’s receipt of checks totaling a specific large amount made out to the campaigns of people running to unseat that incumbent.
