We'll update you at 8am tomorrow but briefly, I thought it was a good meeting and we did agree to meet again.

For discussion:

How do we handle the person who is offered accessible options, refuses, and sets up their tent in your parking strip?

Is there any role for law enforcement?

We will need some early wins. How quickly could we bring a visible change in street homelessness? What would it cost? Who would be willing to be the provider? It sems to me 1) hotel rooms with costs that could be backfilled by FEMA, 2) safe parking expansion, and 3) relocate something like the Clean and Sober encampment in Fife to a sanctioned encampment - with concurrence of City of Fife, potential providers, residents of the encampment.

We need messaging for the public that just doesn't know what to do about visible homelessness. Not the public who will never come along with us but the public who would if they understood change is possible. It seems to me this is a request to fund a professional.
