[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Driving out of DC today and there was a 20-30 year old woman leaning /lying dazed against a lampost in palisades. If we didn't have harsh weather we would become SF as our council and mayor wish, with encampments everywhere. Why close DC general when there is so clearly a need for hospital grade facility, plus the mayor's promise of 'year round shelter'[/quote]

You are a paranoid and ignorant suburbanite - I'm sure if DC ever becomes like SF you'd be completely comfortably plowing over any homeless you got in your way with your SUV.

DC General has not been a hospital for more than a decade.

Not sure what the Mayor's wishes are and how they would lead to encampments everywhere so please enlighten us.[/quote]

In closing a very valuable property that has in fact housed the homeless for the past decade and could be renovated or razed and rebuilt as a state of the art facility for chronic homeless, the mayor's wishes are clearly to have encampments in libraries and lying dazed against lampost instead. In designing inefficient family shelters with no published requirements for residents, clear service delivery or good neighbor agreements - she clearly wishes to be SF where homeless have become a nuisance rather than dynamically served populations putting a damper on QOL for taxpaying residents and tourism.[/quote]
