Thank you, thank you, compassionate City Council members who voted against the encampment ban. No one wants these, but giving citations and making arrests when there are no other alternatives is inhumane. May last night’s decision be the first step in working toward a long-term solution. Please explore the designated camping area idea. Please invite Homeward Alliance back to the table and listen to their plan for a resource center, and please, please do not shut down the railroad facility until there is another option.
I see the governor is calling a special session to deal with the $1 billion shortfall the state has that the Democrats caused. You cannot hire almost a thousand new state employees every year since 2019 or start reoccurring programs with one-time COVID money and expect this
