[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, I hope that they are expected to do something meaningful and worthwhile during the day, that will advance them from homelessness. Is that part of the 8 new shelter policy? Job, job training, treatment, further education. Planting tree canopy is fine. Has the Mayor hashed out any agreements with Giant etc for job placements? No, i am not looking at Giant as a public service. More, something win-win as everyone has mentioned the families placed there will be hard working folks who have fallen through the cracks.

I wouldn't count on Giant remaining in the immediate area long term.  After Wegman's opens, I'd say that the Cathedral Commons Giant's days are numbered, as Wegman's will be highly competitive to attract Giant's current customers.  Giant has already closed its store at Friendship Heights, and Wegman's is even more of a direct competitor than Whole Foods.  The Ward 3 shelter won't be enough of a customer base for Giant.[/quote]
