After nearly two years of study interrupted by a pandemic a proposed shelter for people experiencing homelessness is likely right back where it started: somewhere in north Fort Collins.
The second iteration of the city s Homelessness Advisory Committee a scaled-down version of the 2019 group studying the need, possible funding and locations for a new shelter is leaning heavily toward two sites in north Fort Collins: 1311 N. College Ave. and county-owned property at Vine Drive and Redwood Street.
Both are close to transit stops and existing services for people experiencing homelessness, making them favored locations by much of the committee. I see a clear direction here, said David Rout, executive director of Homeward Alliance, which runs the Sister Mary Alice Murphy Center that provides services for the homeless. Both sites make sense in terms of location, he said. There seems to be less controversy around Vine and Redwood.
