The main business area of downtown Kennewick was designated a 'no sit, no lie' zone this week by the Kennewick City Council. Sitting or lying in the entrance of a business at any time will be a misdemeanor, and from 6 a.m. to midnight sitting or lying on a sidewalk or in a nearby right of way will be a misdemeanor in most instances. The new city law allows police to take action without having a complaint made by a business owner or member of the public. It is expected to be enforced as it is in Kennewick's three other 'no sit, no lie' zones.
