DATE: DecembeD; 2000
RE: City C16mmission Meeting -December 14, 2000
Proposed Second Reading Ordinance -Aggressive Panhandling (J-00-352)
The attached draft ordinance attempts to protect the health, safety and welfare of citizens and
visitors to the City of Miami by prohibiting aggressive panhandling. Aggressive panhandling is
differentiated from ordinary panhandling in that fear and intimidation are used by the solicitor in
an effort to garner a monetary donation. This, proposed ordinance does not prohibit panhandling
or solicitation of charitable contributions.
A court has recently upheld a similar ordinance in the State of Indiana. In Gresham vs. Peterson,
255 F.3d 899 (7`h Cir., August 31, 2000), the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a
lower court ruling which found a 1999 Indianapolis Aggressive Panhandling Ordinance to be
constitutional. The Court found as a preliminary manner that panhandling is a form of speech
similar to constitutionally protected charitable solicitations. It further found that streets and
sidewalks where this panhandling is normally conducted are public forums. The Court
concluded that, like other solicitations, panhandling is a form of speech that is entitled to First
Amendment protection, although subject to reasonable regulation.
The Court noted that the ordinance was not targeted specifically at the poor, but applied equally
to anyone soliciting charitable contributions. Citing a U.S. Supreme Court case, Village of
Schaumberg vs. Citizens for a Better Environment, 444 U.S. 620 (1980), a city could enact an
ordinance which placed reasonable "time, place and manner" regulations on expressive activity.
The Court found that the city had a legitimate interest in promoting the safety and convenience of
its citizens by restricting panhandling to those circumstances where it was less likely to be
threatening or a nuisance. The Court likewise rejected the plaintiff's assertion that the term
"aggressive panhandling" was void for vagueness.
While this ordinance proscribes some of the same activity in the Indiana ordinance, it. is even
more narrowly tailored, liberal and permissive than the Indiana ordinance in that the City is only
attempting to regulate the manner by which panhandling occurs. Therefore, I recommend
adoption of this ordinance.
