<p>The mayor's office released some details Thursday about Mayor Brandon Scott's "Squeegee Collaborative" plan ahead of its official rollout next week.</p> <p>Monica Lewis, a spokeswoman for Scott, said squeegee kids will develop a "code of conduct" in an effort to regulate themselves. Squeegee kids will be assigned specific areas, she said.</p> <p>Lewis said a guaranteed income program will be made available to young men who do not engage in the activity. She said police would continue to enforce criminal activity by both squeegee kids and drivers.</p> <p>Young men have been washing windows at Baltimore street corners for decades. But after a squeegee kid allegedly shot and killed an irate driver in July, the issue was put in the national spotlight and increased pressure on city leaders to act.</p> <p>In recent months, Scott brought together police, business leaders, community members and the squeegee kids themselves to develop a plan. Supporters of the squeegee kids say the boys need help, not punishment.</p> <p>However, many drivers view them as a nuisance performing an unwanted service, leading to conflicts. In recent months, residents have reported that the squeegee kids have assaulted drivers, vandalized cars, and stolen thousands of dollars via cash app scams. But city officials and police have taken a mostly hands-off approach and have avoided making arrests or issuing citations.</p> <p><br></p>
