So the City Council is now publicly going to enable and facilitate crime by giving addicts, who have likely stolen from others/each other to buy these "illicit"  substances, a place to use them?  At best, this is ignoring laws on the books against such things as heroin and cocaine--after all, these are not legal and not sold legally.  So the Council is tacitly approving the crimes by which the addicts get their substances of choice, and approving their victimizing the community at large from whom they steal and rob to get the money to buy them?  Nice.
