[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not trying to be an ass here, but do people think these shelters will reduce homlessness. It seems they would be filled to capacity immediately, then a new wave of homeless people would move in from elsewhere hoping to be the next in line to be helped out. Not making a political statement here, just a practical question.[/quote] The city needs more affordable housing. Housing costs are not keeping pace with folks' income and many areas where poor and working folks live are rapidly becoming more expensive. That said, folks, especially families, should be in safe places when in shelters. [/quote]
