The hot team can refer people to the navigation center, those stays are limited to 30days. The majority of people staying there end up on the street after 30days. When we look at the people going to the navigation center, the numbers are not significant. We look at the numbers coming out. The persistence of homelessness is a problem of political will until the public understands the city needs to invest in housing, this problem is going to continue. I think we need the Police Department to educate constituents about this instead of saying police can get people into services or perpetuating the idea the members of the public have that polices is the solution, it is crucial to be honest with the public. President turman is the Police Department perpetuating that idea . Are we telling the people that policing the homeless is what we are here for, we can get you into these services . That is not us. That is another department. As much as i agree with what you are saying, i am glad to do ou
Neighborhood, my experiences is that i think people almost universally in the neighborhood would like to see that developed as housing. I mean, we have a housing crisis in this city. And the parking lot itself, you know, in the long run, isnt what the community, i think, is going to want or need. The communitys becoming more tech focused. I think well see a decline in cars. Unless somethings done with the traffic situation there, i mean but tigers will be there forever. Tigers and glen park station, and la corneta, i think, will never go away. You know, this is a dilemma that im probably going to ask the department to explain, but you know, my auntie rosa owned the dry cleaner on the corner for years that had all the Police Uniforms on it. Yeah, thats my dry cleaner. Yeah. Yeah, i really think and to the degree that the five years im here, this is something i would push aggressively to see housing develop, because we do have a crisis, and for me personally, the more we can fill around
Affordability, making too much. I have a struggle between talking about the new dream community when across the street, part pardon my language is a [beep] show. Its hard to not think about what is happening on the other side of sixth street. The school is in crisis. We have one school in our district and talking about a new school is ridiculous to me. We had to get pinterest to pay for a second social worker because we have the highest number of homeless kids. 85 of middle schoolers were reading below grade levels. We know that means they will drop out and become incarcerated. For us, its a huger issue, instead of just what is happening in the footprint of this plan area, but we hope that some of this can reach over to the other side of 6th street. Park and rec in this plan, i frankly have more faith elsewhere than the soma plan. The rec center has not had hand towels since may. So there are issues when we talk about renovating the rec center and creating parks, what it means for now
Living and feeling and being better every day and understanding that when we do that there are things that happen today, today we have more energy and we feel better and thats where you really see those enhancements on your productivity and tomorrow, hopefully those things accumulate and in to us preventing Health Conditions and berman age Health Conditions and in the longterm really allowing our quality of life to improve and so thats where our mission came from. On slide 14, you have those factors that are associated with wellbeing and a list of the some of the programs we offer to address them and you will get my usual overly long annual report in the new year that summarize those programs and how theyve been doing and we report on them as they come up and lots of different data points for you so theres no one like look at that and we did that for wellbeing its all of these different programs and its all of these different concepts theyre all driving that number so they all play a p
Im jane grass, im ceo of mercy housing nationally. But i was in the role that doug is in and im delighted to be here and see the development come to fruition. Its been a few years. Some of us remember 1989 and then the long moment of what are we going to do, what are we going to do . Heres what were going to do, were going to develop 108 units of Affordable Housing in this wonderful neighborhood. There are a lot of people to thank. Im not going to thank them all today. Im sure youre happy to hear that. Theres a long list. Just know you are all thanked and some of the speakers will acknowledge all of you, no one is to think theyre being left out on purpose. When we step into the completed property in 18 months or however long it is, well do the official and proper thank yous. This is a village obviously and we acknowledge that. This is a great legacy of our former mayor, ed lee. And we all have been shocked by his passing and you cant start an event like this, which really does, you kno
