[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should be affordable housing built near the shelters so that people can stay in the neighborhoods they are placed in. Otherwise it doesn't make sense to displace families after they've stabilized. FWIW, there was a post of PoPville about how the Columbia Heights residents are opposed to the new shelter that's going up there so this isn't just a ward 3 thing. [/quote] People in Ward 5 also are opposed, so yeah, trying to frame this as "those rich assholes in Ward 3 hate homeless people" is pretty, well, rich. https://wamu.org/story/17/03/02/advocates-critics-d-c-s-planned-new-homeless-shelters-go-head-head-zoning-marathon/[/quote]
