I appreciate the limitations of what you can provide, and, there is a long way to go. I am concerned about those with disabilities who cannot meet the criteria. I mean, this would have a Chilling Effect on them, even seeking shelter. If they know they are not going to be accepted. If they know they cant do the care they have to, what happens . There has to be a whole population of people. I mean, there is a level of sophistication among people who are homeless. They know what they can access on what they cant access.

This is more of an oewd thing, if a landlord needs to do the seismic retrofit work, maybe it happens, maybe they know up front so they can stage it during some of the worst time of the construction, something to think about, its a little more complicated.
