Next slide please. 53 00:04:10,030 --> 00:04:16,290 And so what that group left with were two strategies. One, looking at low barrier options, 54 00:04:16,290 --> 00:04:21,970 really triage, getting people off the streets into that next step. There are a number of outcomes 55 00:04:21,970 --> 00:04:28,550 and objectives, med and measures that were identified for this, as well as next slide, these 56 00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:33,050 four of the longer term solutions. So we have supply and capacity because that longer term 57 00:04:33,050 --> 00:04:40,690 support and housing. And so again, that is that long term wellbeing that we are identified. Next slide. 58 00:04:40,690 --> 00:04:48,550 Based on that, there were some opportunities for success, specifically identified, since this meeting has taken place in September. 59 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:53,070 Some of these initiatives have not looped a word, but there has been some progress. 60 00:04:53,270 --> 00:04:53,930 Next slide, please. 61 00:04:55,350 --> 00:04:58,370 So I just want to highlight some of those work that's been down in the community. 62 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,320 Continuing with care, was identified in this group as needing additional support. Through a grant from the 63 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,620 endowment, they are going to be able to look at their reporting to Andrew Program to be able to sustain 64 00:05:11,620 --> 00:05:18,040 it and continue to create work as being done there. The City of Wellington is also releasing some of our 65 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:23,420 CWG community-bound block grants for shelter services and rehousing for persons experiencing homelessness. 66 00:05:24,100 --> 00:05:28,480 This is done on pretty much an annual basis. It's a portion of our entitlement funding that 67 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,000 can be used for this purpose and so that RFP is under review right now and there's a word 68 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:39,540 should be going out shortly. This is also a word if you check where it's some funding to replace 69 00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:45,400 generators and the HR systems. This will help during emergency storms to help sustain the 70 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,420 shelter services to make sure that during hurricane this folks have a place to say. 71 00:05:51,420 --> 00:05:58,780 And then finally looking at ways to work with housing providers that are, you know, the 72 00:05:58,780 --> 00:06:04,460 market rate plan more, the city has participated with the Continuum of Care's HUD technical 73 00:06:04,460 --> 00:06:09,240 assistance providers, and they look at ways to strengthen this sort of housing in the region. 74 00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:15,100 This is an ongoing effort through our HUD reps and it's been a really great process and experience 75 00:06:15,100 --> 00:06:17,460 and looking forward to moving on with that. 76 00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:18,220 Next slide, please. 77 00:06:19,340 --> 00:06:24,880 So, speaking of that continuum of care, just sort of a high level overview of where things are. 78 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:31,780 So, the Cape Air Homeless continuum of care is one of 12 continuum of care in North Carolina. 79 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,880 As you can see, there are some clusters. 80 00:06:35,740 --> 00:06:39,100 And then the rest of the state is all the balance of state. 81 00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:45,860 locally, the COC is funded through the City of Wilmington as the largest partner 82 00:06:45,860 --> 00:06:51,840 of Bronsor County and Pender County currently, but the service area is City of Wilmington 83 00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:55,360 Bronsor County and Pender County and Pender County and Pender County. 84 00:06:55,500 --> 00:07:00,740 Next slide, please.

They got some hard core people off of the street and they're happy 643 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:59,340 They have rules everywhere, they can screw up their lives if they do, they're right back out in the woods. 644 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:06,320 Those are the kinds of things that we do at ourselves, or the county, or with some good folks out there, 645 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:12,520 like we could talk to the deep in the house, things like that's what it's going to take you to some of the people off the street 646 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:20,660 and it's some kind of shelter, permanent, and then a lot of those people there will kiss their breath 647 00:47:20,660 --> 00:47:22,320 and they're going to say it and they're going to keep on moving. 648 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:23,520 This is the magnet. 649 00:47:24,500 --> 00:47:27,320 This is the magnet everybody comes to it. 650 00:47:27,500 --> 00:47:31,180 Now I don't know that they come to the center because of our psychiatric care 651 00:47:31,180 --> 00:47:32,060 or the middle care. 652 00:47:32,220 --> 00:47:33,920 They come here because this is where the people are. 653 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:35,020 Tourists come here. 654 00:47:35,620 --> 00:47:36,520 They say they're on the road. 655 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:37,500 Some tourists are going to be back. 656 00:47:37,740 --> 00:47:38,780 And he says, God, 20,000, I don't know. 657 00:47:38,780 --> 00:47:41,200 He says, I don't know if it's in it to go bad to talk. 658 00:47:41,620 --> 00:47:42,880 He stands out there. 659 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:44,560 And it makes his money. 660 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:46,140 So I don't know. 661 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,360 Nobody understood what the cure is. 662 00:47:48,660 --> 00:47:49,680 We've all got our ideas. 663 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:56,560 or do we hear of it, but we can have these maintenance until the cows get them and we feel good about it. 664 00:47:56,760 --> 00:48:01,700 That's what these are, these are a real good meetings, but we're not getting anything accomplished. 665 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,700 We can look at all these statistics from all these cities and the sea of the seas. 666 00:48:07,240 --> 00:48:09,820 And God does that, you know, I pray about this all the time. 667 00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:17,280 We can show us the way Lord how we can help these people and get them all the street, get them in the houses, 668 00:48:18,220 --> 00:48:24,380 and put using the drugs and get themselves held on the ground right over here, but it's so frustrating 669 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:32,140 that we see it, we want to do something about it and we get angry at them because they mess up our places, they do this, they do that, 670 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:36,440 but at the end of the day, they're human beings, we got to do something to help them. 671 00:48:37,540 --> 00:48:40,060 And I don't know, I wish I knew, I wish I hadn't answered. 672 00:48:40,300 --> 00:48:45,960 Those are just my observations from 48 years ago. 673 00:48:55,850 --> 00:48:59,970 So we absolutely can do an off-cycle one in addition to the required one. 674 00:49:00,250 --> 00:49:05,010 Yes, so the one in January is required by HUD, but we could globally do our own asset 675 00:49:05,010 --> 00:49:10,570 questions we want to ask. I know the consumer care has also talked about really being into interviewing 676 00:49:10,570 --> 00:49:15,330 people in the big experience to really understand not just the numbers but the reasons why 677 00:49:15,330 --> 00:49:18,790 the unique experiences that people have and that's something that they're looking 678 00:49:18,790 --> 00:49:23,850 forward to doing over the next year of really engaging in that. But yeah, absolutely we can do it 679 00:49:23,850 --> 00:49:30,870 What would that cost in? Why do you do that? I would have worked. I don't know. We have 680 00:49:30,870 --> 00:49:37,090 some of the campsore. I can't be in suburban areas of the city. Obviously we have the 681 00:49:37,090 --> 00:49:44,490 intent. We can go to and we have to show you. You do that fairly easily. Yes. It's very low cost. 682 00:49:44,650 --> 00:49:48,130 In the sense there's a lot of volunteers and donations, but there may be some administrative 683 00:49:48,550 --> 00:49:51,130 We could put the other budget on that out there. 684 00:49:52,050 --> 00:49:55,450 There's a note that I don't know if it's true and still I mean I don't know if it's true 685 00:49:55,450 --> 00:49:59,130 but it used to be a sense that a lot of people in America to play Jack. 686 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:06,080 That's probably one, no. So I mean, that's a daunting fault. 687 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:12,020 I have a couple of questions. There's just some things that you said. And the first or not, 688 00:50:12,180 --> 00:50:17,740 others are very sure which is. It looks like in the 2024 timeline. In the month of May, 689 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:21,800 you did the voice of the consumer piece, and you did speak to some folks who had been empathetic. 690 00:50:21,860 --> 00:50:25,800 At least in the past experience, someone says can you tell us a voice summary of what you learned there? 691 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:36,940 Yeah, a lot of that conference conversations were just really folks who wanted people to understand that they're not just the stereotype, you know, what got them there, their experience 692 00:50:36,940 --> 00:50:44,120 What type of services they need, what they're looking for and I can provide some of those statements, but that's really the summary of just this is how I got here 693 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:49,620 This is my unique circumstance, and this is what I need to get to the next step, so it's a lot of those conversations 694 00:50:49,620 --> 00:50:56,580 And we talk about stereotypes, I mean, there's, there's, you know, just respect for negative stereotypes. 695 00:50:56,700 --> 00:51:00,300 But I think there's also, like, the buckets that we try and put things into systematically. 696 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:04,320 And I know a lot of times we talk about people who have mental illness, who have addiction, 697 00:51:04,620 --> 00:51:06,600 and that, you don't have either, and they're just poor. 698 00:51:07,100 --> 00:51:09,780 And they just need resources to help them get back on their feet. 699 00:51:10,260 --> 00:51:14,840 Are those buckets consistent with what you're reviewing or what's that you're challenging, that belief? 700 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:25,660 I think that there was a stakes recorded in our door for it and they wanted the public to know that they're not all of us at this thing. 701 00:51:26,100 --> 00:51:28,760 To them, you know, for many of them, it was to your point there. 702 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:36,760 Or people, what we know at CLC is that Paul must be driving them at first-time moments. 703 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,320 At first-time, they were housed into a something happened. 704 00:51:40,580 --> 00:51:43,720 That one paycheck or two-day checks away. 705 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:50,200 There is another population that does have substance issues and addiction challenges. 706 00:51:50,780 --> 00:52:02,180 But we heard in the voice that consumer will be in dates and in small focus groups, is that they're one of the public and not all of that thing. 707 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:07,440 And then, Charlie Cohen, up on what you said with that specific ministry, where you wanted to figure 708 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:12,640 specifically on men who were using drugs and alcohol, what was the, like, why is that your chance? 709 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:20,440 It was a Christian military minister, and some very successful businessmen in town were 710 00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:21,160 remembers of it. 711 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:28,560 It came from churches in a lot of different religions, and I got pulled in, I guess it's 712 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,560 the right word, and then they all rotate it all, and I became a chairman and a good 713 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,660 buddy if I had to take my place for eight years. 714 00:52:35,980 --> 00:52:41,160 We would go, my house manager, the entire sergeant in the army, and we'd go on a third 715 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:45,260 bridge on the cold nights and we'd drag them out, they'd be in there to sleep, they'd 716 00:52:45,260 --> 00:52:49,020 freeze to death. And we'd take them in and we would have a bed for them, but we could 717 00:52:49,020 --> 00:52:55,680 get them inside where it was warm and given them a lonely sandwich and some soup. And they'd 718 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,440 be alright, we didn't have any criteria. And if somebody was out there and didn't have a 719 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:04,740 place to get it, they didn't have to be an alcoholic or a drug addict, we'd burn them in. 720 00:53:04,740 --> 00:53:10,740 And sometimes when we had a, you know, like a state, we had first floor of their bed and castle. 721 00:53:11,420 --> 00:53:14,520 So the house here became so valuable to the whole state. 722 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,140 And now they have beds at bed and castle. 723 00:53:17,700 --> 00:53:20,420 They call it the rescue mission to take care now. 724 00:53:21,380 --> 00:53:23,740 They started to get some local money, I think. 725 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:25,920 But we didn't have, we didn't have that. 726 00:53:26,180 --> 00:53:30,240 I mean, if somebody came up with the door, then they were welcome to come in. 727 00:53:30,240 --> 00:53:36,740 And the reason that I left Sean to that when you said it, and I call my attention, is this is a 728 00:53:36,740 --> 00:53:41,260 dig spectrum of a problem. And it was a big spectrum of problem we started having meetings back 729 00:53:41,260 --> 00:53:46,180 at the beginning of 2024, but in a way, like let's be honest about the fact that it's come to a 730 00:53:46,180 --> 00:53:52,840 head specifically because of the the city group of exudendable about what we've been seeing 731 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:58,000 downtown. And so when I think about what we talked about in our last city council meeting and who 732 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:04,060 is that we're seeing downtown. The group that you stated, adult men who may or may not have 733 00:54:04,060 --> 00:54:08,720 some sort of addiction and illness issue, that kind of is the group that's brought this 734 00:54:08,720 --> 00:54:15,480 to a head which lets us have a follow-up talk about it. So when we're talking about additional 735 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:22,660 face shelters and specifically men's shelters, that helps get that every type of street downtown 736 00:54:22,660 --> 00:54:27,500 and potentially connects with the service provider. So I'm curious about that that is one of our 737 00:54:27,500 --> 00:54:31,520 one term resources, as I said it, we're looking for a book, yes, sir. 738 00:54:31,820 --> 00:54:35,440 And when I say book, yes, I mean, as to what brought up this conversation to 739 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,700 ahead, I mean, obviously against the spectrum, but that piece of it is something 740 00:54:38,700 --> 00:54:42,000 that I think is missing because we talked about how a lot of our shelters 741 00:54:42,740 --> 00:54:46,020 serve families, and serve women, and especially if you're 742 00:54:46,020 --> 00:54:47,620 messing around, it's important to this. 743 00:54:48,180 --> 00:54:51,440 But if that seems to be the visible group that brought us to ahead, 744 00:54:52,220 --> 00:54:54,580 it's time that you brought up that previous ministry. 745 00:54:54,580 --> 00:54:57,060 We have the other thing, you know, 746 00:54:57,060 --> 00:54:58,840 so, part of your mention that they're the same. 747 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:06,400 The Senate of the People on the Out of County, for good shelter, billed there. Nice facility. We used to discerter, 748 00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:11,560 excuse me, like our Street Ministries, some of the others that were beating people on the street. We 749 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:18,560 discerged that. I mean, because it was, it was, they were already here. We were trying to spread them out, I guess. 750 00:55:19,100 --> 00:55:26,740 And then in the eighth part, no, it ended up, it was a little bit all over there that had wall there. And a lot of want to stay in the, I mean, 751 00:55:26,740 --> 00:55:31,200 like you didn't park in Texas. This is where all the action is. We went out and ate the 752 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:36,780 garden. But when we had Saint James, we looked at their ID and all their all up at address 753 00:55:36,780 --> 00:55:41,340 at 810, I think the Satan put it in the market street. So they weren't going to be down here 754 00:55:41,340 --> 00:55:46,240 or woman to the residents. That's what they used so they could get mailed and had to have an ID 755 00:55:46,240 --> 00:55:50,000 of somebody asking me to show that and they always had the same address on it. They're done 756 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,900 where they come from. I know Chief of Agents said a lot of the people that they're dealing with 757 00:55:53,900 --> 00:55:59,240 on the street, but out over here, they're coming in here from Ireland, so I mean, this is just 758 00:55:59,240 --> 00:56:03,560 work, I mean, this is a destination to be below there coming here to get our services 759 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:04,840 out there coming in the vehicle. 760 00:56:05,980 --> 00:56:08,500 And to that point, Charlie, and I want to thank you, 761 00:56:24,050 --> 00:56:26,410 I think that we need to, some of those 762 00:56:26,410 --> 00:56:32,910 charts on the numbers being overlayed on the population growth and growth in the constant 763 00:56:32,910 --> 00:56:40,310 because any of those are two factors that have, you know, really speaks in the fact that we're not getting 764 00:56:40,310 --> 00:56:43,450 had on the numbers, the numbers of the population. 765 00:56:44,430 --> 00:56:47,370 The fact is we've doubled in population since 1990. 766 00:56:48,310 --> 00:56:50,910 So, of course, we're going to have more people. 767 00:56:51,190 --> 00:56:57,250 And then the cost of living the cost of rent or mortgage has more than doubled. 768 00:56:57,770 --> 00:57:01,510 And so, yeah, that's a goal that we're chasing, 769 00:57:01,510 --> 00:57:07,030 that we're probably never going to get to, but it does speak to a reason why some of these numbers 770 00:57:07,030 --> 00:57:07,870 continue to come out. 771 00:57:11,310 --> 00:57:17,610 But I guess we're looking at the numbers and looking at the services that we are, we are 772 00:57:17,610 --> 00:57:19,730 to the service delivery, it was obviously small. 773 00:57:21,970 --> 00:57:27,450 And city, if you look at population, there's only one small point, because you're going to 774 00:57:27,450 --> 00:57:28,330 go through a very small street. 775 00:57:28,590 --> 00:57:32,950 You're going to have to carry out everybody as a woman in the dress, who worked on the MLK 776 00:57:32,950 --> 00:57:35,930 on the way to 70th year to 70th year to 70th year to 70th year to 70th year to 80th year, 777 00:57:36,070 --> 00:57:37,250 because it's more of a less than 70th year. 778 00:57:37,570 --> 00:57:39,430 If you look at that geographic footprint, 779 00:57:40,290 --> 00:57:41,870 it's not that much laying on the way to the right. 780 00:57:42,730 --> 00:57:44,850 So we're attracting more, I believe, 781 00:57:45,290 --> 00:57:47,850 that the system has been overwhelmed by some out of population, 782 00:57:48,230 --> 00:57:49,630 so I'm in it. 783 00:57:49,810 --> 00:57:52,670 And I think, and this is the opinion from me, 784 00:57:53,010 --> 00:57:55,230 based on the services that we're providing in community, 785 00:57:55,570 --> 00:57:57,230 is attracting people here. 786 00:57:57,510 --> 00:58:00,250 And somebody may say, you can go to the surrounding counties. 787 00:58:00,810 --> 00:58:03,750 You may not have that sort of soup, but they happen to move. 788 00:58:04,050 --> 00:58:05,950 You may want to go there to try it out. 789 00:58:06,730 --> 00:58:09,990 And that ends up bringing more of that, more of that 790 00:58:09,990 --> 00:58:12,230 Introduction to the Bushmeans. 791 00:58:12,450 --> 00:58:15,270 The citizens are asking us to help us to fix it. 792 00:58:15,810 --> 00:58:17,670 At the same time, from the money territory, 793 00:58:18,390 --> 00:58:20,670 it seems like everybody's looking at us to say, 794 00:58:21,090 --> 00:58:23,350 you, the city, the spongy ground of the area. 795 00:58:24,170 --> 00:58:25,190 You both fix it. 796 00:58:25,630 --> 00:58:26,310 It's your money. 797 00:58:26,370 --> 00:58:29,890 At the same time, we've got both bridges of it. 798 00:58:30,470 --> 00:58:36,470 We've got a lot of things on our client here, and we can't do it at all, and we can do what we can do. 799 00:58:36,990 --> 00:58:41,650 But we have an issue, and it's something one way to get them. 800 00:58:42,270 --> 00:58:46,610 And you've got to have to have partners that come to the table, and they've got to try to help you, 801 00:58:46,910 --> 00:58:51,990 or not, and if you don't, and it's going to be what's going to be able to put whatever money we can into it. 802 00:58:52,410 --> 00:58:54,850 We have demonstrated that we've put money into this. 803 00:58:55,190 --> 00:58:58,190 It's just the issue, is I think we have overwhelmed the system. 804 00:58:58,670 --> 00:59:02,710 And that's why I wanted to put Jackson on, because I wanted to see what they had up there. 805 00:59:02,830 --> 00:59:05,210 They had about 200,000,000 people up there. 806 00:59:05,290 --> 00:59:05,890 On to the county. 807 00:59:06,410 --> 00:59:09,950 And Moral Beach is 40 counties, 21,000 people. 808 00:59:10,410 --> 00:59:13,570 Cheap in the case of one of his meetings. 809 00:59:14,010 --> 00:59:17,490 That we, years ago, had a number of them being bust up here, 810 00:59:17,530 --> 00:59:20,550 because the service delivery in that area was not as great. 811 00:59:20,570 --> 00:59:22,290 Now, they had a 13 county area. 812 00:59:23,330 --> 00:59:23,550 Right. 813 00:59:24,650 --> 00:59:29,510 So it's a 13-county area there, one more account, so it's not only your account, it's 814 00:59:29,510 --> 00:59:32,030 a dual-channel account, and it's a lot of good account needs there. 815 00:59:32,830 --> 00:59:37,970 So if you have services up this way, you can gravitate so that this way for the south, 816 00:59:38,230 --> 00:59:42,150 and you can get something more than you're going to get some from the best of what account 817 00:59:42,150 --> 00:59:49,570 needs to state, and it's all kind of tricky in here loaded, and somebody just said, well, 818 00:59:49,570 --> 00:59:59,970 because of how much of them, you know? I think part of it is yes, but I don't say it's on and so how do you deal with that side of it because it's 819 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:15,400 There's going to be people that can ask us for more money for shelters. We've done, I think, I think, right now, between late service, whatever, what we're doing, it's fair, what we put in permanent housing and grant grant service. 820 01:00:15,900 --> 01:00:19,460 And with the only ones that have done that, we're somebody else coming to it. 821 01:00:19,460 --> 01:00:22,700 As far as local governments get over months with the only one. 822 01:00:22,860 --> 01:00:25,820 So were the only ones that have stepped up to even do the death part of it? 823 01:00:25,980 --> 01:00:36,120 We'd by the way, it was a lot of concern from the makers there about that facility there at Greenfield Lake. 824 01:00:36,420 --> 01:00:41,460 And it's turned out to be a great place because the services are there to take care of the needs of the people. 825 01:00:41,580 --> 01:00:45,080 And there's not any kind of shenanigans going on in that particular area. 826 01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:49,980 And I would say the same is what happened with the spare based on what the truth has been able to do. 827 01:00:49,980 --> 01:00:51,560 But we're very limited in what we can do. 828 01:00:51,620 --> 01:00:54,940 How long did it take us to get the spare off of that three years, four years? 829 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:56,420 Taking a few years, yeah. 830 01:00:56,460 --> 01:01:00,780 A few years, so these hundreds are not easy to put together, but you have to put the commitment. 831 01:01:01,340 --> 01:01:04,740 I mean, the city put up the property and donated whatever they give them. 832 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:05,620 2.01. 833 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:07,060 2.01 million dollars. 834 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,540 This is not a little money that I'm throwing out there. 835 01:01:13,060 --> 01:01:17,980 So I think we just overwhelmed it and I've got some new concerns and I did a lot 836 01:01:17,980 --> 01:01:23,380 along the other day with a couple of police officers that she offered it to everybody 837 01:01:23,380 --> 01:01:25,840 to go out there and just take a look at what else is happening. 838 01:01:26,300 --> 01:01:31,840 Not only downtown but in the suburban areas, which is just a dramatic and some of the things 839 01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:38,260 that we've saw out there, it's pretty, it's pretty dicey and whatever is causing it, 840 01:01:38,260 --> 01:01:41,740 I think it's because we are the magnet and we have the service that we're here and look, 841 01:01:41,820 --> 01:01:45,960 I don't have any, no disrespect to any service, but I think it was an all-in-all job and 842 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,740 one of what we're working sometimes in a shoe-stream budget. 843 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:54,480 But it's over the wellness and I don't have specific answer, that's why I want to make sure 844 01:01:54,480 --> 01:02:00,260 that we can kind of kind of give us the overall view of what we're dealing with the services 845 01:02:00,260 --> 01:02:04,520 that we have out there, the amount of money that we're spending, and can we spend it 846 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:08,020 than much more efficient manner with some of our providers 847 01:02:08,020 --> 01:02:10,260 that I think are doing really good work. 848 01:02:10,740 --> 01:02:12,300 It's just like what we do in the valuation 849 01:02:12,300 --> 01:02:13,780 of all of our service deliveries, 850 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:15,740 we try to find better as we can. 851 01:02:16,060 --> 01:02:19,540 But that had the capacity to deal with a lot of the issues 852 01:02:19,540 --> 01:02:22,300 that we do, because we have to leverage tax dollars. 853 01:02:22,860 --> 01:02:23,460 All right, to do it. 854 01:02:24,380 --> 01:02:27,440 So I'd just say this gives us a pretty good end 855 01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:31,580 to pretty good point where we are right now. 856 01:02:31,980 --> 01:02:32,540 This is it. 857 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:39,660 You know, come from your colleagues and we didn't invite any of the home this year and that's a good profession. 858 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,640 But I've known this, we've got a lot of providers here. 859 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:49,680 And I'm just curious, is there something that like is between your chest and you say, 860 01:02:50,140 --> 01:02:52,580 I wish somebody had saved. 861 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:54,540 They'd be saved now. 862 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:58,800 There's something that we've listened because, you know, you're there. 863 01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:03,960 You need a trick, you know, guys, and what's going to happen is that we need help, and I was 864 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:10,060 understanding that much of the issues that we have are going to be doing that are chronically 865 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:14,740 focused, you know, most of the problems, or all of the assumptions. 866 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:20,020 But is there something that was just, if you need to say, then, you know, you know, you 867 01:03:20,020 --> 01:03:23,780 don't work out the room, you go catch a question, put up on that and say it's so and so. 868 01:03:24,380 --> 01:03:24,500 All right. 869 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,100 Don't give that to me. 870 01:03:26,100 --> 01:03:29,200 But yes, I'd like to invite anybody here. 871 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,060 We'll just come to meeting a two thing in the bar, the healing place, 872 01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:35,100 to discuss one of the issues we're talking about here. 873 01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:39,200 That is people from out of the county who are coming here for services. 874 01:03:40,060 --> 01:03:43,100 And then they drop out, and they end up homeless and willing to. 875 01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:43,860 All right. 876 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:44,260 Thank you. 877 01:03:44,420 --> 01:03:46,360 Then now's a two thing in the bar, the healing. 878 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:47,840 And that's a great point. 879 01:03:48,060 --> 01:03:50,100 I just wrote down, so I won't forget it. 880 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:54,340 Listen to you take somebody, because man, I appreciate you coming up to me. 881 01:03:54,340 --> 01:03:59,620 all the services. We're helping. So we take him and we get the services. Once he gets 882 01:03:59,620 --> 01:04:06,100 the services, what happens then? What would we do with him then? What did they do with 883 01:04:06,100 --> 01:04:10,700 themselves? Then they've got, they've seen the light, you know, they've got some service, 884 01:04:10,860 --> 01:04:16,760 they maybe get some continuum of some follow-up care, but they're, he's still in the same 885 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:21,600 economic situation. He was, but he was out there doing drugs and a lot of what do we do 886 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:27,840 because if you're right they're going to get right back if they can't get any follow-up 887 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:32,840 hell or some kind of support, what's its point of results or options? 888 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:40,520 I think that you mentioned something about, when that person gets this breath, it may be 889 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:47,020 it may be that the opportunity that we give that may be the step that helps them get there and it may 890 01:04:47,020 --> 01:04:57,440 You know, I think I don't want to wish you mention what is the percentage of those who get services and don't come back, he said something like 891 01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,980 Under 5% of the folks who are placed in house 892 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:13,560 I'm just wanted to say that I also appreciate the fact that you mentioned it, Charlie, that 893 01:05:15,860 --> 01:05:29,240 holds people. In the room, I did go out yesterday and I talked to a few people. I don't know, it's a really small sample, and I did let them know that we were meeting today and, you know, what did they want people to know? 894 01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:40,200 It's a small sample. I only got to talk to three people, but you know, one of the things that speaks to this question of, you know, how do you stay, how is it first of all? 895 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:49,520 If you don't have an address, I talked to one young woman, and this is the woman that was featured on WCT on the fifth. I recognized her, and so I wanted to talk to her. 896 01:05:49,520 --> 01:06:13,760 And she did get housing greatly and became homes again and because of that, she lost her ability to collect her social security disability and so that's part of it, you know, until we until somebody has a permanent address, they have trouble collecting their benefits and being able to maintain it. 897 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:15,180 So that's one thing. 898 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:20,260 I talked to two other gentlemen who, by the way, 899 01:06:20,380 --> 01:06:22,200 all three of these people said that they 900 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:23,800 became homeless and we've never counted. 901 01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:25,820 Again, I know it's a small sample. 902 01:06:27,620 --> 01:06:31,800 I talked to two gentlemen who, and none of these people 903 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,940 who were up here to be intoxicated. 904 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:39,980 And I talked to two gentlemen who said, 905 01:06:40,380 --> 01:06:43,540 I talked about this meeting, but this is in a great format, 906 01:06:43,540 --> 01:06:47,540 either for people to just show up, you know, we're not having it on our map. 907 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:51,340 So I just told me that we were having it. 908 01:06:51,580 --> 01:06:52,880 What were the last people to know? 909 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:57,380 And they said, you know, we just need a roof over our heads, you know, 910 01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:58,560 we just need housing. 911 01:06:58,980 --> 01:07:01,620 And so I'm just passing that along. 912 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:06,660 But, and also I appreciate the work that the task force did earlier, 913 01:07:07,500 --> 01:07:11,600 getting the voices up and homeless into the internet. 914 01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:13,600 So thank you for that too. 915 01:07:15,950 --> 01:07:16,470 Just compare. 916 01:07:17,210 --> 01:07:19,150 Just be honest with what you want to know. 917 01:07:19,350 --> 01:07:20,830 I mean, I can't agree with it. 918 01:07:22,590 --> 01:07:23,250 I mean, I can't agree with it. 919 01:07:23,250 --> 01:07:25,170 I would just want to chime in. 920 01:07:25,290 --> 01:07:27,450 I just didn't plan the tension here. 921 01:07:27,910 --> 01:07:30,210 And I think we couldn't. 922 01:07:30,350 --> 01:07:34,590 We can't engage the title, don't get home through our. 923 01:07:34,950 --> 01:07:37,190 Based on it, if a person will. 924 01:07:37,990 --> 01:07:39,110 We, really, absolutely not. 925 01:07:39,110 --> 01:07:54,550 If they have some sort of a substance abuse, I will all abuse or not, I think what we need to do is create a model and that it is that will help all individuals going forward. 926 01:07:54,690 --> 01:08:04,390 I think that's the idea. So, you know, we can try to gain the amount of help that's been done in the past 17 years, 15 years, 20 years. 927 01:08:04,390 --> 01:08:28,770 So we work homelessness, it's kind of like crimes, it's going to be there, but what do we do as the government body and what I think we're going to all the stats that we've provided today by Rachel and her team is that we've been in this business for quite a while and we're deeply able to see. 928 01:08:28,770 --> 01:08:36,110 in not only, you know, I don't know, but what I'm going to do with it, so how do we bring 929 01:08:36,110 --> 01:08:42,570 other folks that are able to help us continue doing work to help us improve? I think that's 930 01:08:42,570 --> 01:08:51,790 a big issue, you know, we can talk about our care and how they perceive to us, but let's 931 01:08:51,790 --> 01:09:09,410 It's not how we perceive a person to be a mental state, physical state, you know, if they're standing on the corner as a gimmick or whatever, but it's not truly our concern that we're genuinely here to help. 932 01:10:00,180 --> 01:10:28,200 I think people had already eaten now. What was the, what was the, what was the magic moment that you just said, this is what I will, I'm tired of living in the woods, under one, he got a check and he bought a room, under a generator, so he could have electric blanket when it was cold out there in the woods.

It's where my staff has sent an email that everyone if you invite you to come 1174 01:27:10,820 --> 01:27:11,920 But I see you 1175 01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:15,760 Okay, but you have a case man, yes 1176 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:19,520 Who who sponsored the case man 1177 01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:25,920 are they from social service or that is about that is a that is a paid staff position 1178 01:27:26,780 --> 01:27:32,940 that we have budgeted in our line item are number one funding is from the end-down 1179 01:27:32,940 --> 01:27:39,640 but we also have other like-minded people who believe in the mission what we try to do and they just 1180 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:48,720 have fun what we do is a case manager don't we later have time yes right now that's that's where 1181 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:54,860 We have a part-time caterer that's open about half the time that we're physically up. 1182 01:27:55,100 --> 01:27:56,780 Then we go to the fun back of funding. 1183 01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:00,480 It's a challenge in question. 1184 01:28:00,900 --> 01:28:05,100 I believe like a raise the position of the funding for a full-time position. 1185 01:28:05,660 --> 01:28:08,840 The right person that I have is available part-time. 1186 01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:14,060 I could probably hire somebody else, but I have a really good case in it here. 1187 01:28:14,300 --> 01:28:17,300 And we're working on having to get more time from her. 1188 01:28:17,420 --> 01:28:18,780 That's quite a lot of time. 1189 01:28:18,780 --> 01:28:30,940 That was what the results, when you work in case man, family statistics and saying, we work with eight guys, seven of them did something wrong. 1190 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:39,760 So, I should clarify that our level of case man is probably a little different than what perhaps you might be thinking. 1191 01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:43,540 Because we're not housing experts, we're just hospitality people. 1192 01:28:43,540 --> 01:28:57,500 So, our objective isn't sunlight. I mean, only the objective is to get in a house, but we're really more concerned about can we get them in contact with family? Can we get them to the medical appointments? Can we do different sorts of things like that? 1193 01:28:57,500 --> 01:29:02,000 It was basic stuff that when you're so overwhelmed 1194 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,780 it becomes really hard to do what you're hoping. 1195 01:29:06,140 --> 01:29:07,320 I want to appreciate you being here. 1196 01:29:07,380 --> 01:29:09,080 I appreciate the ministry that you have to do. 1197 01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:12,300 I think it's very important. 1198 01:29:13,950 --> 01:29:15,330 I appreciate all these folks doing. 1199 01:29:15,430 --> 01:29:16,690 I know it's a difficult work. 1200 01:29:17,190 --> 01:29:20,370 You said that your phone rings cost them a lot of folks 1201 01:29:20,370 --> 01:29:22,010 who are looking for where they're going to stay 1202 01:29:22,010 --> 01:29:23,610 to see the next place to stay tonight. 1203 01:29:23,850 --> 01:29:26,930 That's not some of that you guys are able to hold. 1204 01:29:26,930 --> 01:29:28,390 We are just fixing a day shelter. 1205 01:29:28,390 --> 01:29:34,710 we are not, I know we're not to so let's think and I believe Dr. Dalton had brought forward 1206 01:29:34,710 --> 01:29:40,570 a short-term emergency shelter option of 60s-90 beds, who wasn't done. We were working on that, 1207 01:29:40,630 --> 01:29:44,850 but again we were looking for a location. I was, I was a huge supporter of that because it's a massive 1208 01:29:45,630 --> 01:29:50,090 need that we need in this community, but I believe and I can go back and look at minutes that the 1209 01:29:50,090 --> 01:29:54,190 majority of Council didn't want to do it because it didn't subscribe to the housing first, it didn't 1210 01:29:54,190 --> 01:29:54,870 I'm the council. 1211 01:29:55,510 --> 01:29:56,370 What's in for that? 1212 01:29:56,490 --> 01:29:56,970 We're all over. 1213 01:29:57,010 --> 01:29:57,110 We're all over. 1214 01:29:57,110 --> 01:29:57,310 We're all over. 1215 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:13,930 I thought a lot of accusations are going to be over the last week, and I have to see a lot of it, and so I apologize for a little bit more boisterous than usual. 1216 01:30:15,010 --> 01:30:18,110 Walk us through the process, there, why, why would not it have a broad forward council? 1217 01:30:19,230 --> 01:30:26,530 I need to go back and check. I know there were reports provided to council, the council could take any form, that way we submitted reports. 1218 01:30:26,530 --> 01:30:32,230 The big part of it was, if you recall, Dr. Dalton, I'm going to skip some context if everybody's here. 1219 01:30:32,850 --> 01:30:41,910 What I'm recalling is his proposal to use to call the complex for a location set up chance. 1220 01:30:42,490 --> 01:30:47,390 About 80 to 90 shifts, a couple of issues occurring on that problem. 1221 01:30:47,390 --> 01:30:52,430 The first and foremost, it's used as the police evidence compound violence 1222 01:30:52,430 --> 01:30:57,270 that we had, we gave it to the building, and he was behind the fire department 1223 01:30:57,270 --> 01:31:02,830 and the other part of it was, it was, he had some concerns about 1224 01:31:03,870 --> 01:31:08,250 what we talked about, big part of it was the plug-in zoning. 1225 01:31:09,410 --> 01:31:14,870 And also, at night, not having 70, 80 people, once the facility closed in the morning, 1226 01:31:14,870 --> 01:31:22,890 just dropping out on 16 to 17th Street that numbers seem to be pretty large and then there was a 1227 01:31:22,890 --> 01:31:27,950 anticipation of its need. In fact, that facility has been used right now to house our urban forest 1228 01:31:27,950 --> 01:31:33,750 region and they have their equipment and staff over there. But it's not that we couldn't make it happen. 1229 01:31:34,290 --> 01:31:38,750 It seemed to be that that location given and this information was submitted as I were 1230 01:31:38,750 --> 01:31:41,250 all and writing what it analysis and everything else. 1231 01:31:41,830 --> 01:31:45,790 That location also had a higher concentration 1232 01:31:45,790 --> 01:31:47,470 of street traffic already. 1233 01:31:48,390 --> 01:31:52,170 As well as we had low income housing and whatnot, 1234 01:31:52,490 --> 01:31:54,910 we felt like having that much more concentration 1235 01:31:54,910 --> 01:31:58,810 dropping out into that area would probably be a distance. 1236 01:31:59,370 --> 01:32:02,330 I was just asking, is that ever brought to the council? 1237 01:32:03,070 --> 01:32:05,090 I believe it was submitted as a written report. 1238 01:32:05,230 --> 01:32:06,250 I believe it was a written report. 1239 01:32:06,250 --> 01:32:06,410 I believe it was a written report. 1240 01:32:06,410 --> 01:32:09,390 It wasn't that kind of thing, I couldn't do this. 1241 01:32:10,090 --> 01:32:11,270 I couldn't double check. 1242 01:32:11,650 --> 01:32:13,950 It's been two and a half years ago. 1243 01:32:14,150 --> 01:32:15,930 It's been two and a half years ago. 1244 01:32:16,130 --> 01:32:16,510 Maybe three. 1245 01:32:17,110 --> 01:32:18,910 The location was bad with concepts. 1246 01:32:20,430 --> 01:32:21,730 And what problem should have happened? 1247 01:32:22,310 --> 01:32:24,810 I think I'm sure I was still using anybody. 1248 01:32:25,310 --> 01:32:26,610 It's not pushing it. 1249 01:32:26,710 --> 01:32:29,230 If that location doesn't water down, I'll just find one of the doors. 1250 01:32:32,340 --> 01:32:32,880 Same time. 1251 01:32:33,200 --> 01:32:33,200 Yes, 1252 01:32:36,420 --> 01:32:36,420 ma'am. 1253 01:32:36,560 --> 01:32:40,720 I also want to say that at the same time we were looking at a different 1254 01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:47,380 type of shelter. I know some of her join her top of the region's borough with the 1255 01:32:47,380 --> 01:32:55,520 Schiller to look at their temporary shelters if they put up their pod concept, which I believe 1256 01:32:55,520 --> 01:33:03,560 was palatones, and that there's a problem with both those and the godpots that were being 1257 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:16,500 Those five, by Mr. Dr. Donald, that if it had to do with the commissioner, insurance that we couldn't leave them up for a certain period of time because they didn't make building code. 1258 01:33:16,820 --> 01:33:27,400 So there were some technical issues. Why that never came back to Council that we need to work through before we can come up with a tiny kind of concept. 1259 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:32,260 That was my recommendation as well. 1260 01:33:34,660 --> 01:33:35,900 Well, Tony, did you finish? 1261 01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:37,640 Thank you. 1262 01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:38,380 I have David. 1263 01:33:39,900 --> 01:33:44,700 Thank you very much for allowing me to state just for a couple minutes. 1264 01:33:44,940 --> 01:33:45,880 My name is Hillary Faubin. 1265 01:33:46,220 --> 01:33:47,120 I'm a psychologist. 1266 01:33:47,660 --> 01:33:50,060 I'm the clinical director of Physician Alliance Mental Health. 1267 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:50,760 Here in London. 1268 01:33:51,880 --> 01:33:54,620 And we specialize in treatment effects with primary psychotic disorders. 1269 01:33:55,420 --> 01:33:57,460 And so that is being whisked up. 1270 01:33:57,460 --> 01:34:05,100 He's a effective disorder about voter psychotic features, those folks that you regularly see in the emergency department, but that she's seen in the state hospitals 1271 01:34:05,100 --> 01:34:11,360 The folks who significantly struggle with maintaining any type of stability in their lives including health 1272 01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:21,900 We have three large teams all of which go into the community to talk about psychiatric care. Our doctors, our nurses, our social workers, our therapist, our employment specials 1273 01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:26,420 housing specialists, peer-sports specialists, all go into the community, make these individuals 1274 01:34:26,420 --> 01:34:27,100 where they are. 1275 01:34:27,420 --> 01:34:31,320 We make them downtown, we make them in their homes, if they have them, we'll meet them. 1276 01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:37,300 In strict corners, anywhere that we may need to, and each one of those teams have housing 1277 01:34:37,300 --> 01:34:38,780 specialists full-time dedicated. 1278 01:34:38,940 --> 01:34:42,900 It's not required by the state, because we provide home Medicaid services. 1279 01:34:43,420 --> 01:34:47,200 It's not required by the state, but it's mandatory that we have them for our folks to have 1280 01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:47,660 stability. 1281 01:34:47,660 --> 01:34:59,760 Some of the greatest issues that we see in helping those folks with those types of sorts of maintain that housing is the fact that they are also victimized in this process, we are part of a group. 1282 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:05,120 Overcome the barrier of taking these vulnerable individuals, who are also perpetrators of climate 1283 01:35:05,120 --> 01:35:12,200 time. I would never say that they are not. But having those votes be in-hums with subsidies, 1284 01:35:13,140 --> 01:35:18,460 with tendency supports, and then having people come in and victimize them themselves. And so, 1285 01:35:18,480 --> 01:35:25,040 we are regularly having our individuals finally get into housing, work start working on a lot, 1286 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:26,500 possibly not using substances, 1287 01:35:27,020 --> 01:35:28,500 possibly start looking for a job, 1288 01:35:28,820 --> 01:35:32,000 and then people, they're groups of individuals 1289 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,220 in the town that identify these folks, 1290 01:35:34,440 --> 01:35:36,500 come into their homes, use them to sell drugs, 1291 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:37,920 use them to run guns, 1292 01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:39,600 and then ultimately our clients leave 1293 01:35:39,600 --> 01:35:40,700 because they don't just save. 1294 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:45,140 And so it is a small portion of what you guys are talking about, 1295 01:35:45,220 --> 01:35:46,920 but it's also a very significant portion 1296 01:35:46,920 --> 01:35:50,260 because we are constantly having to re-house. 1297 01:35:50,480 --> 01:35:51,640 In substandard housing, 1298 01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:56,860 But how is just because there's prompting for training on them as well? 1299 01:35:57,440 --> 01:36:00,800 And so what I don't want to do is come in and say let me make it more complicated. 1300 01:36:01,260 --> 01:36:04,780 But if we're talking about some of those really sick individuals in this town, 1301 01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:09,820 the folks that we don't want to have to be a downtown on the sidewalks that we want them to be sheltered, 1302 01:36:10,660 --> 01:36:15,000 we as providers also need assistance in overcoming those barriers. 1303 01:36:15,000 --> 01:36:22,380 We're working with a small break within the NDT with APS, some of the head APS, through DSS 1304 01:36:22,380 --> 01:36:27,140 with multiple other entities, but it's something we can significantly use your help in 1305 01:36:27,140 --> 01:36:31,280 and help in taking a small portion of these folks and help keep them in safe capacity. 1306 01:36:35,440 --> 01:36:44,420 I would probably say of, I've been doing this for 16 years and in the past five years 1307 01:36:44,420 --> 01:36:49,480 We have probably had, I'm going to guess, on both of my teams that served at 120 clients, 1308 01:36:49,920 --> 01:36:56,100 we probably had 30 people on each team, so 60 people total, have to believe their house 1309 01:36:56,100 --> 01:37:00,380 whether they were scared or whether they were forced out or whether they were addicted because 1310 01:37:00,380 --> 01:37:05,620 of the perpetrators that came in and go back out in the street, go to get a shepherd, go to a healing 1311 01:37:05,620 --> 01:37:12,100 place, stay in the street, and some of the events you guys are talking about are not on the 1312 01:37:12,100 --> 01:37:14,860 I can't tell you who they are, but I know that they're mine. 1313 01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:16,600 I'm going to get more out of the street by now. 1314 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:27,600 I think the last total on-house we had was 80% on each team, 100 clients, 16, probably, 1315 01:37:28,300 --> 01:37:32,360 probably 20, 20, 20 got folks that are on-house, if I'm going. 1316 01:37:33,220 --> 01:37:36,880 And we tend not to have as many people on-house and then are in runs like it's a DMA ever. 1317 01:37:37,340 --> 01:37:40,700 I would say probably 70% of our services are provided in the neighborhood. 1318 01:37:40,700 --> 01:37:45,440 So those are all the availability of housing is a huge problem. 1319 01:37:45,700 --> 01:37:47,320 It's a catastrophic problem. 1320 01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:48,660 It's not just a huge catastrophic. 1321 01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:53,480 So if there isn't, and you guys are called, 1322 01:37:56,920 --> 01:38:01,320 I've heard it, you know, that's all help. 1323 01:38:02,440 --> 01:38:03,720 There's full. 1324 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:04,160 Oh, right. 1325 01:38:05,180 --> 01:38:07,700 Sherry Hill is going to Sherry Hill. 1326 01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:12,780 And take your time to get somebody there. 1327 01:38:12,920 --> 01:38:13,340 Yes. 1328 01:38:13,340 --> 01:38:18,020 What other place could you take them if they're having an episode? 1329 01:38:18,780 --> 01:38:22,260 Well, well, it was a great experience. 1330 01:38:22,780 --> 01:38:25,080 That was a great experience. 1331 01:38:25,460 --> 01:38:29,120 I tried calling the other day the ones dead. 1332 01:38:29,140 --> 01:38:30,600 Is there anything in broadway? 1333 01:38:32,020 --> 01:38:39,620 So what happens is our folks, anybody with psychiatric condition that needs to be inpatient needs to be committed 1334 01:38:39,620 --> 01:38:42,120 for a involuntary commitment or if they go involuntarily. 1335 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:45,460 We're going to be emergency room and at that point in the emergency room. 1336 01:38:45,500 --> 01:38:48,980 There's a team of individuals, if it's determined, they need to go inpatient. 1337 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:53,600 They send out to all of the state, they get to know about how you'll open your good checkered light, 1338 01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:54,700 in the South Carolina. 1339 01:38:57,480 --> 01:39:02,800 If they are in the ED, and there are risks themselves or others, and 1340 01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:07,440 they can't unaveting where in the state, after 72 hours if they're back to their baseline, 1341 01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:12,760 which is not well, it's just stable enough to where they're not posing a risk in themselves 1342 01:39:12,760 --> 01:39:16,940 or others. Then they'll be released back on the street. There's plans that call us, we go get 1343 01:39:16,940 --> 01:39:20,440 our folks. We don't have anywhere to take them during the day, we'll let them come hang 1344 01:39:20,440 --> 01:39:25,860 our office with that coffee and television, that sort of thing. But at night, there's no 1345 01:39:25,860 --> 01:39:30,640 way for us to be able to take them. So we drop them when we think it's the safest place. 1346 01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:36,080 We say that's right back around in the morning. We've even tried to have our individuals 1347 01:39:37,020 --> 01:39:41,960 from, um, family and people to proceed if they're arrested for a family. Um, we have a lot of people 1348 01:39:41,960 --> 01:39:47,120 found a cake for a proceed. And they said, well, they'll either sit in jail for a year before they 1349 01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:51,820 to carry for capacity bed, or they will just drop the charges because they don't need to be in the jail. 1350 01:39:51,980 --> 01:39:55,660 I've gone back to the safety being in the jail myself to a bad way of all nations. 1351 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:27,720 And they repeatedly say these people don't need to be here. And that's held in my grave. This is access to a criminalization in LAL. We also don't have any work in it. And so I've even gone in to make recommendations. And we've been having such a long time. The client that we have in there is that the charges are dropped in their back will surely. And so we have really close relationship meeting and also. And they will be having folks in this quickly possible. 1352 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:31,780 even local anybody other than charity can't keep people very long. 1353 01:40:32,960 --> 01:40:35,920 And so that that stabilization period is challenging. 1354 01:40:36,540 --> 01:40:38,680 And then when they get out a lot of the times, 1355 01:40:38,900 --> 01:40:41,060 if I don't have anywhere to go, it's still a feeling of place. 1356 01:40:41,160 --> 01:40:42,260 It's a bit of a healing place. 1357 01:40:42,860 --> 01:40:45,940 And then we have to go back and try to find it and pick them like that. 1358 01:40:46,220 --> 01:40:49,840 It is really most of from our perspective. 1359 01:40:50,180 --> 01:40:52,820 It's many, many systems that make out the long here. 1360 01:40:53,440 --> 01:40:56,000 And we're just trying to find a place to help them along. 1361 01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:58,300 There's a lot of things that have gone into this. 1362 01:40:58,500 --> 01:41:03,180 I think the Department of Justice said that North Carolina is in with the United States federal government. 1363 01:41:03,600 --> 01:41:07,460 It's also contributing because it's taken away some of this intermediate levels of care. 1364 01:41:07,600 --> 01:41:09,140 I think it's much greater conversation. 1365 01:41:09,860 --> 01:41:13,680 But I think that we are seeing some increase because of a lot of different ones. 1366 01:41:13,840 --> 01:41:16,280 I had to hurt that particular piece of product. 1367 01:41:16,540 --> 01:41:18,380 And so I'm going to make sure that part is heard as well. 1368 01:41:19,780 --> 01:41:24,660 If you can set your finger and solve the problem that they will be the first thing. 1369 01:41:24,660 --> 01:41:25,640 And 1370 01:41:29,220 --> 01:41:37,340 with hesitancy yes, that I would say we need to be a combination of housing and greater access to 1371 01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:47,620 Stabilization in care and in residential or supervised studies so that there's the opportunity to help for stabilization for my 1372 01:41:47,620 --> 01:41:52,560 For my folks that's not being it's for everybody, but my job is my folks 1373 01:41:52,560 --> 01:41:57,580 and the people that you're dealing with, man, they employ it all, I mean, they're spreading it. 1374 01:41:57,620 --> 01:42:03,180 Every individual is employable. We have, we actually follow a model called the individual placement 1375 01:42:03,180 --> 01:42:07,520 of sports model. It's designed for people with severe and persistent mental illness that is, 1376 01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:13,020 it's supported and implemented for the problem, for that particular population. We have a large team 1377 01:42:13,020 --> 01:42:17,580 dedicated to that and then other specialists within. Every one of our folks can work and work 1378 01:42:17,580 --> 01:42:22,540 as a huge part of their recovery. It takes time. Sometimes we start with two hours 1379 01:42:22,540 --> 01:42:26,680 week we have benefits counselors to make sure they don't lose their Medicaid to make sure they 1380 01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:32,100 don't lose their there's a security disability benefits but every one of them can work. 1381 01:42:32,360 --> 01:42:36,500 It's a matter of finding that good fit for them not even if it's a good fit gone. 1382 01:42:36,660 --> 01:42:41,280 They need stability and it's really hard to find stability in a world where I'm 1383 01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:44,360 the psychologist and sometimes it's hard for me to find lots of people. 1384 01:42:44,360 --> 01:42:49,180 So you connect it with the sitting thing, yes, partner, anything? 1385 01:42:49,860 --> 01:42:52,780 We are not formally connected in any way. 1386 01:42:53,380 --> 01:42:57,400 We show up everywhere we possibly can to try to advocate for our folks. 1387 01:42:58,220 --> 01:43:02,720 Why have been invited to sitting meetings as an act provider to try to say, 1388 01:43:02,720 --> 01:43:05,380 what do we need to do to be able to help increase the access? 1389 01:43:06,100 --> 01:43:09,100 The answer is going to be the same thing that everybody hears through is funding. 1390 01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:12,900 And Medicaid last week just got another 3% cut across the board. 1391 01:43:12,900 --> 01:43:29,700 And so we are trying to have really quality individuals that are educated and that are dedicated to this population work in a world where it's made, we really, we don't accept any property insurance, we are completely making Medicare and I'm sure. 1392 01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:39,600 And so, keeping those sides, we're trying people really really well, but keeping them is the challenging part because they need to live a successful life too. 1393 01:43:40,700 --> 01:43:53,160 So, you know, having all of those those have an increasing the ability to be able to cover the cost of what it takes for about the care that we need to do because these folks also deserve to live in the community. 1394 01:43:54,020 --> 01:43:58,680 But they deserve to live in the community and cohesion with everybody else. 1395 01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:02,740 Any other questions? 1396 01:44:03,440 --> 01:44:04,240 I'd like to ask a question. 1397 01:44:04,300 --> 01:44:07,260 I mean, it's specialized that you need to be talking about housing. 1398 01:44:08,180 --> 01:44:11,760 So, if you talk about housing from a housing perspective, 1399 01:44:13,300 --> 01:44:19,960 And if I can take just the remote out of the house folks I've got right now in our care, we 1400 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:24,440 just our agency alone could probably use 20 to 30. 1401 01:44:24,900 --> 01:44:31,360 If we're talking about long term, the stabilization desk, chairing needs open up. 1402 01:44:31,500 --> 01:44:33,480 They don't have the funding for it. 1403 01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:35,520 It's not a chair saying no. 1404 01:44:35,720 --> 01:44:39,200 It's a very significant status to it not having enough. 1405 01:44:39,200 --> 01:44:44,160 They have events.

Everyone has 1479 01:48:39,170 --> 01:48:39,810 to be somewhere. 1480 01:48:42,910 --> 01:48:48,490 So they do the chairs, perhaps, as the shelter capacity. And Rachel, I think 1481 01:48:48,490 --> 01:48:51,970 you sort of glossed over a little bit in your slide, but there's a slide about the shelter 1482 01:48:51,970 --> 01:49:00,030 beds and the shelter capacity. And what was there five or so in the capacity? So shelters 1483 01:49:00,030 --> 01:49:04,390 are an important part of the solution, I think, because people get a place to go. We've 1484 01:49:04,390 --> 01:49:08,910 got day shelters, which put people back on the streets at night. We've got that overnight shelters 1485 01:49:08,910 --> 01:49:12,990 and then maybe folks need a place to be during the day. But shelters are temporary. They're 1486 01:49:12,990 --> 01:49:17,810 always intended to be a temporary solution. So we need shelter. We need a place for people 1487 01:49:17,810 --> 01:49:23,150 go what we really need is a housing in public right because we need people to get out of the 1488 01:49:23,150 --> 01:49:30,710 chair and make room for the next guy because as we've learned from some of these statistics 1489 01:49:30,710 --> 01:49:36,350 that we've seen the first time on those numbers are much higher than the folks were able to 1490 01:49:36,350 --> 01:49:42,750 exit so there's always more and more people than each chair but what we you know and so we 1491 01:49:42,750 --> 01:49:46,710 do need more chairs but what we really need is a place for people to get out of the chair 1492 01:49:46,710 --> 01:49:49,350 And the other thing that is important, 1493 01:49:49,910 --> 01:49:52,730 to think about how we're thinking about this issue, 1494 01:49:53,990 --> 01:49:55,950 substance abuse, I'm sure it's the biggest issue. 1495 01:50:01,910 --> 01:50:10,970 We're not talking about people with mental health issues, we're not in the street. The common denominator is these folks have nowhere to be. 1496 01:50:12,290 --> 01:50:30,090 And I think, you know, to the discussion about the ordinance, which I know is how what we're talking about, some of you think about is, if there is no way to be. The shelter has no capacity. If there is no housing, then where? Where do we put these people? And if there's no way to put them, then perhaps we have to be comfortable with the fact that there's no way to put them. 1497 01:50:30,090 --> 01:50:37,720 There is going to be almost on the street, but if not on the public property, then we first 1498 01:50:37,720 --> 01:50:42,060 to follow on to private property owners, people must occupy space. 1499 01:50:43,160 --> 01:50:46,780 This is a very difficult and foreign problem, there is no question. 1500 01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:54,040 But I think we have to recognize that we heard from the prior person who spoke to you, 1501 01:50:54,200 --> 01:50:59,280 another word that he's speaking of, and we have to accept that, and we can't blame the person 1502 01:50:59,280 --> 01:51:03,820 that there's not a chair, and I think if we think about the question of these little chairs again, 1503 01:51:04,540 --> 01:51:10,460 you know, there's an affordable housing game that we're playing, and folks who have 1504 01:51:10,460 --> 01:51:17,360 the least income, but the most of the most challenges are always going to be the most supposed 1505 01:51:17,360 --> 01:51:21,820 to get to the chair. They're always going to be the most challenged in this housing question. 1506 01:51:22,340 --> 01:51:27,380 I have no answers to you, but I think that some of these points that I'm making are 1507 01:51:27,380 --> 01:51:30,520 maybe help over how to figure out all the problems. 1508 01:51:38,440 --> 01:51:38,880 I'm going 1509 01:51:42,500 --> 01:51:44,100 to 1510 01:51:51,100 --> 01:51:52,620 go through a very, very little bit. 1511 01:52:01,890 --> 01:52:05,190 Back in section I was going to have to do another row column quick. 1512 01:52:05,630 --> 01:52:06,550 I'll make a picture of the year. 1513 01:52:07,110 --> 01:52:07,210 Yes. 1514 01:52:07,210 --> 01:52:07,990 That's where I'm going to back here. 1515 01:52:08,030 --> 01:52:10,010 Yes, that's where I'm going to spares you here. 1516 01:52:10,830 --> 01:52:11,670 That's where the spares. 1517 01:52:15,830 --> 01:52:16,530 That's where the spares. 1518 01:52:17,390 --> 01:52:18,550 You'll get your attention. 1519 01:52:18,910 --> 01:52:19,870 Casper, what the hell? 1520 01:52:20,450 --> 01:52:21,570 That's where I do it. 1521 01:52:21,750 --> 01:52:21,930 Here. 1522 01:52:21,930 --> 01:52:22,690 That's where the join is. 1523 01:52:23,370 --> 01:52:24,750 Here, cheers here. 1524 01:52:24,790 --> 01:52:25,910 Here, the counter for. 1525 01:52:28,890 --> 01:52:34,030 Thank you, Ms. Mayer.

And so those would be the current ordinances that police officers could look at. 1566 01:56:11,500 --> 01:56:18,260 if they wanted to cover this situation now, under the proposed ordinance section B of that ordinance 1567 01:56:18,260 --> 01:56:22,860 talks about unattended personal effects not allowed, but it actually does not address this 1568 01:56:22,860 --> 01:56:27,580 is one thing I wanted to point out. It does not address camping on city property during the 1569 01:56:27,580 --> 01:56:37,460 day. If you'll recall section A, it's for 10 PM to 7 AM. So this would actually not be prevented by 1570 01:56:37,460 --> 01:56:39,720 that particular ordinance during the daytime. 1571 01:56:39,980 --> 01:56:44,020 It would be prevented at nighttime under the current ordinance. 1572 01:56:44,720 --> 01:56:47,720 So I feel like that kind of was a little bit confusing 1573 01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:48,660 in the last presentation. 1574 01:56:49,000 --> 01:56:50,460 So I wanted to make that clear. 1575 01:56:51,880 --> 01:56:55,720 Now, one big part is if you have to clean up a lot of times 1576 01:56:55,720 --> 01:56:59,400 in can'tments don't just happen on a daily basis. 1577 01:56:59,420 --> 01:57:01,100 They build up over time. 1578 01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:03,540 And so having to remove things overnight 1579 01:57:04,200 --> 01:57:06,740 would the thought would be that it would make it 1580 01:57:06,740 --> 01:57:10,520 so that these things wouldn't develop again every single day. 1581 01:57:11,200 --> 01:57:15,600 So that's how that proposed section of the ordinance within address that. 1582 01:57:15,700 --> 01:57:20,320 You have to take down any tense and get rid of all your possessions, almost every night. 1583 01:57:20,860 --> 01:57:26,520 So encampments like the one that are shown here wouldn't be allowed unless somebody was 1584 01:57:26,520 --> 01:57:30,340 coming in in mass and setting them up every single day. 1585 01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:34,320 Next slide. 1586 01:57:34,320 --> 01:57:44,820 It appears to be a parking lot, we've got a park park there right now, camping on city surface parking lots, either during the day or night. 1587 01:57:45,100 --> 01:57:59,800 I say allowed there's nothing in city code right now that would prevent the scene that you're seeing here from somebody being in the median or in an area of the parking lot during the day or night under the proposed ordinance. 1588 01:57:59,800 --> 01:58:05,040 this would not be allowed, it would, it would be allowed on most city property during the 1589 01:58:05,040 --> 01:58:11,340 day, but not on city surface loss. Section C would prevent that from happening on city surface 1590 01:58:11,340 --> 01:58:19,300 parking lots. But otherwise during the day, it would be allowed on much of their city property. 1591 01:58:19,820 --> 01:58:21,120 Next slide, please. 1592 01:58:23,230 --> 01:58:28,310 The next picture that you've got with cover, camping, sleeping or laying 1593 01:58:28,310 --> 01:58:33,830 in city parking desks during the day or night currently that's not allowed because we do 1594 01:58:33,830 --> 01:58:37,690 have an ordinance although we don't have one that addresses city service lots we've got one that 1595 01:58:37,690 --> 01:58:45,710 does address parking desks such as 6-8 condo in certain in parking desks that would prevent 1596 01:58:45,710 --> 01:58:52,150 can't be sleeping or delaying in the city parking debt because you're which is also a safety issue 1597 01:58:52,150 --> 01:58:59,250 don't don't have to have people in the right way of vehicles that are maneuvering through the parking lot. 1598 01:59:00,470 --> 01:59:15,480 Under the proposed ordinance, it would not be allowed in city parking desks, section C, but can't be again, would be allowed on most other city property during the day, but not if that happens. 1599 01:59:16,660 --> 01:59:23,000 Next slide, if this were a city bench, then monopolizing or sleeping with city benches or 1600 01:59:23,000 --> 01:59:28,040 seating areas during the day. Currently that's not allowed without specific ordinance 1601 01:59:28,040 --> 01:59:35,580 for obstructing city seating areas 11 to 13. That is, this situation is not addressed in 1602 01:59:35,580 --> 01:59:43,040 the proposed ordinance. Other than monopolizing or sleeping on city benches at night because 1603 01:59:43,040 --> 01:59:44,420 that would be city property. 1604 01:59:45,100 --> 01:59:48,820 So during the day, would not necessarily prevent 1605 01:59:48,820 --> 01:59:50,700 this situation in the proposed ordinance, 1606 01:59:50,960 --> 01:59:52,280 but would it not? 1607 01:59:53,080 --> 01:59:56,540 Under the, if you're looking at night time, 1608 01:59:56,720 --> 01:59:56,840 our, 1609 02:00:01,740 --> 02:00:02,740 The next slide. 1610 02:00:05,150 --> 02:00:10,370 The next slide is one that I've had several questions about, this type of activity. 1611 02:00:11,730 --> 02:00:22,450 You see clearly one gentleman possibly two out of the three in the picture are sleeping on city sidewalks or wide of ways or sidewalks during the day. 1612 02:00:22,450 --> 02:00:28,610 currently that would not be allowed because you're obstructing city streets or right, 1613 02:00:28,970 --> 02:00:33,830 simply. However, I will tell you that even among individual police officers that I 1614 02:00:33,830 --> 02:00:39,390 spoke with, and I'm sure that Chief would tell you the same, what defines obstructing is 1615 02:00:39,390 --> 02:00:44,990 always going to be a question. It's always going to be an issue of discretion, 1616 02:00:45,490 --> 02:00:52,050 as far as the officers concerned. Obviously there's a concern. If they have their feet in 1617 02:00:52,050 --> 02:00:56,330 streets sitting on the sidewalk like this, that's a danger to them, that's a danger to 1618 02:00:56,330 --> 02:01:00,670 motorists who might be trying to park where they are. So there's a public safety and 1619 02:01:00,670 --> 02:01:09,050 a welfare aspect to it that the police could could address. But at this point, if you're looking 1620 02:01:09,050 --> 02:01:14,390 at obstructing, in the same sense that you would look at the word hockey power, which I know 1621 02:01:14,390 --> 02:01:33,810 As Andrew says, that's a question about, in the sense of, it meaning to possess or use property to the exclusion of others, then it would apply to anybody sitting or being stationary and preventing other people from using the sidewalk area. 1622 02:01:33,890 --> 02:01:40,370 When you're talking about a street or sidewalk, that's supposed to be for movement, free flowing movement back and forth by the public. 1623 02:01:40,370 --> 02:01:51,730 And so if you are, quote, occupying or obstructing or monopolizing a particular area, then that would be seen as being covered under Section 11-13. 1624 02:01:51,970 --> 02:02:08,330 But again, all of your officers, you've got 200 police officers, and they all may view that how much of an obstruction is enough to characterize being charged with an, with a class three misdemeanor for that. 1625 02:02:08,910 --> 02:02:14,430 This situation is not addressed during the day in the current in the proposed ordinance. 1626 02:02:15,370 --> 02:02:18,350 Sleeping on city sidewalks for a right of ways at night. 1627 02:02:18,990 --> 02:02:24,770 Again, not allowed under section 11, that's 13 under the proposed ordinance. 1628 02:02:24,770 --> 02:02:31,730 It would not be allowed if they're sleeping under section A, which is mostly from any city property overnight. 1629 02:02:32,850 --> 02:02:36,370 So a lot of times there is a difference between day and night. 1630 02:02:36,370 --> 02:02:36,990 Next slide. 1631 02:02:38,070 --> 02:02:45,110 And you'll see this is actually the same slide, specifically as opposed to sleeping this address 1632 02:02:45,110 --> 02:02:50,530 is the obstructing and a little more, just what I mentioned about the fact that if they're 1633 02:02:50,530 --> 02:02:58,050 theater in the street, the police could already address that issue under a general welfare situation 1634 02:02:58,050 --> 02:03:01,590 because that could be a danger to them or other people with the streets. 1635 02:03:02,090 --> 02:03:02,330 Next slide. 1636 02:03:04,860 --> 02:03:11,000 Next slide, supposing, and I use this to illustrate the potential for sleeping or lying 1637 02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:13,620 in entrances to private property or businesses. 1638 02:03:14,100 --> 02:03:20,860 If this was a private business, then the city would currently be able to enforce a general 1639 02:03:20,860 --> 02:03:24,700 statute against that for trespass if the business under was to call us. 1640 02:03:25,200 --> 02:03:31,380 A lot of the, and what I noted on here is that many business owners don't want to press 1641 02:03:31,380 --> 02:03:36,960 charges, though, because then they have to go to court and take time out of their day to say that 1642 02:03:36,960 --> 02:03:42,060 that person was allowed to be there. And so, a lot of times, stress pass doesn't get used 1643 02:03:42,060 --> 02:03:46,820 as much as you would think that it could be because the business owners don't want to do 1644 02:03:46,820 --> 02:03:51,920 the follow-up and have to go to court against somebody who probably may or may not even show 1645 02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:57,540 up to court. So, stress pass would seem to be a way to address a lot of issues, but a lot 1646 02:03:57,540 --> 02:04:02,000 times it doesn't work out that way in reality because of that factor. 1647 02:04:02,600 --> 02:04:08,880 The proposed ordinance doesn't address this date or not for private businesses because 1648 02:04:08,880 --> 02:04:11,800 it's only targeted at city property. 1649 02:04:12,660 --> 02:04:13,120 Next slide please. 1650 02:04:14,660 --> 02:04:21,420 This next slide would be, and if you would imagine that this is city buildings as opposed 1651 02:04:21,420 --> 02:04:27,520 to private property during the day, currently we would trespass someone like that if 1652 02:04:27,520 --> 02:04:34,080 They did not move from a city, from a city building, city manager has authority to delegate 1653 02:04:34,080 --> 02:04:41,000 that trespass authority to, and has in the past, to the individual department directors 1654 02:04:41,000 --> 02:04:46,740 who have responsibility over the particular buildings or facilities, and so the city is 1655 02:04:46,740 --> 02:04:50,900 able to address pass people who are blocking entrances to city buildings during the day, 1656 02:04:50,900 --> 02:04:58,420 And we have done that for have had that address in the past, under the proposal. 1657 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:14,680 Opposed, ordinance, this would not be allowed because section 2 talks about specifically entrances to city facilities, being for ingress and egress, only so sleeping and lying at the entrances of city buildings, 1658 02:05:16,960 --> 02:05:20,000 if would not be allowed during the day. 1659 02:05:20,000 --> 02:05:26,660 for at night the proposed ordinance would not allow this under the same section 1660 02:05:26,660 --> 02:05:31,780 deed for interest as to city facilities. However, the city itself, because there's no 1661 02:05:31,780 --> 02:05:37,060 disruption of city business for preventing anybody from coming in and out of 1662 02:05:37,060 --> 02:05:40,680 buildings after the buildings that closed, does not have a specific ordinance 1663 02:05:40,680 --> 02:05:44,080 that addresses that at my time currently. 1664 02:05:47,060 --> 02:05:54,580 And some of the things that I have spoken with the chief and with the city manager about 1665 02:05:54,580 --> 02:06:00,040 how the weather, the new ordinance proposed ordinance goes forward or not. 1666 02:06:01,300 --> 02:06:06,140 The thought that the PD and the city attorney's office there are police attorney for myself 1667 02:06:06,140 --> 02:06:12,320 could work together with the PD to provide some additional training for downtown downtown specifically officers 1668 02:06:12,320 --> 02:06:16,520 but for all officers, looking at a roll call, we could, 1669 02:06:16,740 --> 02:06:19,480 the folks that are on the getting hold of task force, 1670 02:06:19,840 --> 02:06:23,260 and talk to them about all quality of life ordinances, 1671 02:06:23,600 --> 02:06:25,060 not just this particular one, 1672 02:06:25,140 --> 02:06:28,100 and when I say quality of life, that would also include 1673 02:06:28,100 --> 02:06:31,040 noise, public urination and defecation, 1674 02:06:31,280 --> 02:06:33,640 aggressive handling, public consumption, 1675 02:06:33,940 --> 02:06:37,280 the other things that our downtown business owners are also 1676 02:06:37,280 --> 02:06:40,600 complaining of, whether or not the new ordinance is forward 1677 02:06:40,600 --> 02:06:47,240 or not. I think those things are not, our police officers could probably rattle off the top of 1678 02:06:47,240 --> 02:06:54,920 their head. All of these state laws against rate, murder, theft, they wouldn't expect them 1679 02:06:54,920 --> 02:07:03,500 to be able to have the entire book, 300 pages of city ordinances memorized. And so I think it would 1680 02:07:04,400 --> 02:07:11,300 helpful, whether or not the new ordinance passes to train our officers, especially the 1681 02:07:11,300 --> 02:07:16,400 one's working in downtown, about what their alternatives are. 1682 02:07:18,480 --> 02:07:20,180 The new ordinance, if it 1683 02:07:20,180 --> 02:07:27,000 did go into effect, you can see from the chart, this on the first page, there's probably 1684 02:07:27,000 --> 02:07:32,480 a handful of six to ten ordinances right down that they're looking at and having to go through 1685 02:07:32,480 --> 02:07:39,540 ahead, which they probably don't have memorized, this would as a cheap mention previously be another 1686 02:07:39,540 --> 02:07:44,320 tool in toolbox because it would be one ordinance that would be applied to a lot of different 1687 02:07:44,320 --> 02:07:50,360 situations instead of multiple ordinances, and so could help in that way as far as being another tool 1688 02:07:50,360 --> 02:07:58,640 in toolbox. So, but either way, I do think that we've had a lot of turnover as far as grease officers 1689 02:07:58,640 --> 02:08:05,380 and that city code and especially these quality of life issues are not something that we focus 1690 02:08:05,380 --> 02:08:12,400 on a lot with training for those officers and I think that the office could help with that 1691 02:08:12,400 --> 02:08:17,980 and could do a lot better job of assisting with that and cooperating with these departments 1692 02:08:17,980 --> 02:08:19,400 to get that done. 1693 02:08:20,880 --> 02:08:24,200 So I'd be glad to take any questions, but a lot of these are just for your information 1694 02:08:24,200 --> 02:08:29,720 in the preparation for your next meeting and I want to count it because we've got a lot 1695 02:08:29,720 --> 02:08:34,020 of questions at that meeting and so she can now would both be available to talk about 1696 02:08:34,020 --> 02:08:39,920 any important or legal issues that she got or would answer those questions at your next 1697 02:08:39,920 --> 02:08:40,220 meeting. 1698 02:08:40,440 --> 02:08:41,240 How are you feeling? 1699 02:08:41,860 --> 02:08:41,980 Yes. 1700 02:08:42,300 --> 02:08:46,920 I appreciate saying that the pictures weren't from the moment I think that that's important. 1701 02:08:50,300 --> 02:08:54,220 It looks like from your chart that there's just a handful of things. 1702 02:08:54,220 --> 02:09:04,000 sleeping that are not currently in violation of our current ordinances that the new ordinance 1703 02:09:04,000 --> 02:09:05,500 would prohibit it. 1704 02:09:05,580 --> 02:09:13,060 And those include sleeping in city parking desks day or night, sleeping in city surface parking 1705 02:09:13,060 --> 02:09:19,360 lots, sleeping in your car on city property or right away overnight, and sleeping or lying 1706 02:09:19,360 --> 02:09:23,680 in entrance to this city buildings overnight, and then the one that you did address in your 1707 02:09:23,680 --> 02:09:31,220 which is occupying city owned or lease property between 10 AM and 7 AM and so. 1708 02:09:32,740 --> 02:09:39,280 And the problem I have with the word, occupying is that it's undefined and made. 1709 02:09:39,600 --> 02:09:43,000 It could apply to, you know, study just sitting, reading, or standing. 1710 02:09:43,660 --> 02:09:47,180 And it risks arbitrary enforcement and plenty of application. 1711 02:09:48,780 --> 02:09:55,780 It has a disproportionate impact on the overall vulnerable groups like the on-house. 1712 02:09:56,880 --> 02:09:58,760 So that's my concern. 1713 02:10:00,000 --> 02:10:08,060 We find that we're probably leaving out just because of the day that's stressful and we have a problem with this list. 1714 02:10:08,440 --> 02:10:10,800 It's not. That's 100 of them. 1715 02:10:13,880 --> 02:10:15,220 So, maybe you could address that. 1716 02:10:15,880 --> 02:10:24,700 So, the ordinance that Mr. Waldo has to have put forward is the one that mirrors the county. 1717 02:10:25,600 --> 02:10:31,780 And that's the language that's in there. Whatever language council wants to have or not have in there. 1718 02:10:32,500 --> 02:10:38,180 You know, my office doesn't take a position on that, but in general, we do use the word 1719 02:10:38,180 --> 02:10:45,080 occupying throughout our code and other situations in the land development code as far as 1720 02:10:45,080 --> 02:10:50,140 you should probably most as opposed to talking about occupying residences and things like that 1721 02:10:50,140 --> 02:10:50,720 in the LBC. 1722 02:10:51,200 --> 02:10:57,840 But we also have 60 to 70 more instances of using the word occupying throughout the rest of our 1723 02:10:57,840 --> 02:10:58,460 city code. 1724 02:10:58,460 --> 02:11:07,380 And when we use it in those senses, although not applying to human beings, it's not used in this particular sense, 1725 02:11:07,420 --> 02:11:19,080 because we haven't had an ordinance like this before, it is used for, say, if you put install a poll or a fixture, 1726 02:11:19,300 --> 02:11:23,440 or something like that in an alley or a sidewalk or a street or a right of way, 1727 02:11:23,440 --> 02:11:35,100 meaning that what you're putting there or even a temporary fixture is occupying space to the exclusion of other things. 1728 02:11:36,280 --> 02:11:50,840 And so we don't, for instance, allow our downtown shop owners to put out big huge racks of clothing and things like that for 1729 02:11:50,840 --> 02:11:56,700 They have to get a permit and they can only do it for two hours a day, even on the property 1730 02:11:56,700 --> 02:12:04,500 directly in front of their places because, and we define that as occupied because it's 1731 02:12:04,500 --> 02:12:09,040 to the exclusion of other people, because there's space to be public rights of life. 1732 02:12:09,620 --> 02:12:14,560 And so if there's an issue, we use other words at other places. 1733 02:12:16,760 --> 02:12:22,720 We use monopolizing, we use obstructing. 1734 02:12:22,840 --> 02:12:30,120 And so if there's another word of phrase that council would prefer to use, you know, we use other words in our code as well. 1735 02:12:30,460 --> 02:12:37,980 But occupying as far as what we currently use in our code, the definition would be to use or possess to the exclusion of others. 1736 02:12:39,680 --> 02:12:48,600 And so, and as I mentioned, the purpose of a city public right of way or street is to allow free movement. 1737 02:12:49,300 --> 02:12:52,960 And so, if you are taking up a space and not allowing that free movement, 1738 02:12:52,980 --> 02:13:00,300 even if there's room for you to go around, you shouldn't have to on a city right of it. 1739 02:13:00,960 --> 02:13:05,140 You should be able to move and go forward wherever you want to. 1740 02:13:05,140 --> 02:13:08,180 And so that's the theory is that when you're talking about 1741 02:13:08,180 --> 02:13:11,460 obstructing our occupying, is that someone is being 1742 02:13:11,460 --> 02:13:15,420 somewhere to the point that someone else is not allowed to use. 1743 02:13:15,460 --> 02:13:17,300 If that's kind of where we are on our pinches, 1744 02:13:17,460 --> 02:13:24,240 when we talk about occupying city pinches, it means monopolizing 1745 02:13:24,240 --> 02:13:28,000 and putting your stuff somewhere and underneath to the point 1746 02:13:28,000 --> 02:13:31,180 that nobody else could use could use that bench 1747 02:13:31,180 --> 02:13:32,960 or that sidewalk for that street. 1748 02:13:32,960 --> 02:13:42,700 So, but whatever term that Council decides to use is certainly fine, but we do use that term in other places throughout our code. 1749 02:13:43,560 --> 02:13:52,780 No, there's not a specific definition of it anywhere else, but that's how it's, that's the definition of how it's used in other places. 1750 02:13:58,560 --> 02:14:08,700 So as far as these new things that are being proposed such as sleeping in cars, in your 1751 02:14:08,700 --> 02:14:16,560 in city lots overnight or sleeping or lying in city building entrance is overnight. 1752 02:14:17,020 --> 02:14:19,700 Do we have a lot of cultural service for things like that? 1753 02:14:23,450 --> 02:14:26,030 Well, it calls for service, but it's city loss. 1754 02:14:26,450 --> 02:14:28,890 It's going to call that it has an observation, 1755 02:14:29,430 --> 02:14:32,490 officer of making an observation of that. 1756 02:14:32,490 --> 02:14:35,010 You're going to plug it in the entryway into a city building. 1757 02:14:35,550 --> 02:14:37,370 Again, it's going to call on that. 1758 02:14:37,930 --> 02:14:41,870 We'll see that and then take action on that. 1759 02:14:42,490 --> 02:14:47,950 So calls we get are usually from business owners, 1760 02:14:48,070 --> 02:14:51,250 who are, if they're sleeping in the entryways, 1761 02:14:51,250 --> 02:14:55,930 wherever we'll see in case they're in a party decks, now it's up to a party deck. 1762 02:15:01,020 --> 02:15:10,940 But, you know, normally we respond to this complaint of the statuist, it used to be the three seats that I was out in the West Coast. 1763 02:15:11,760 --> 02:15:16,580 The complaint of the statuist, the commercialized, well, the commercialized doesn't work on this. 1764 02:15:16,860 --> 02:15:19,340 But if this is one of the two seats, we're going to take action. 1765 02:15:19,980 --> 02:15:25,420 Okay?

They used to live with jobs for them. I mean, we had a great 1991 02:35:08,040 --> 02:35:16,980 success rate. I recently went from about 75% now, maybe 25% or something. It was a pretty successful program. 1992 02:35:17,580 --> 02:35:27,420 But like anything else, you can just kind of fell apart. We had some staffing issues and kind of went away. But unfortunately, 1993 02:35:42,410 --> 02:35:42,890 So 1994 02:35:45,220 --> 02:35:50,000 we partnered with business community, business community and we're willing to hire 1995 02:35:50,000 --> 02:35:52,520 these guys. 1996 02:35:52,860 --> 02:35:55,400 And that was the hook. 1997 02:35:55,840 --> 02:35:57,620 I mean, you don't have, you don't have a job. 1998 02:35:58,260 --> 02:36:02,040 And what you're going to do is it's not going to properly not go to work real well. 1999 02:36:02,420 --> 02:36:05,120 So we've got to commit this from the business community. 2000 02:36:05,600 --> 02:36:07,860 And we've got these guys hooked up for a job. 2001 02:36:08,900 --> 02:36:10,460 And some of them were real successful. 2002 02:36:14,820 --> 02:36:17,800 I guess I want to ask the audience the same question I had earlier. 2003 02:36:17,800 --> 02:36:28,840 And then what I'm missing and what is it that I beat you in your chest that you want to say that when you need here, you're going to go, 2004 02:36:29,180 --> 02:36:30,980 God, I always couldn't but ask that question. 2005 02:36:36,290 --> 02:36:38,090 Yes, sir, I wasn't going to say anything. 2006 02:36:38,850 --> 02:36:39,970 But I have to go, I'm sorry. 2007 02:36:40,350 --> 02:36:41,890 Yeah, yeah, I'm going to set up 2008 02:36:47,910 --> 02:36:49,210 a time and go, there's an answer. 2009 02:36:49,490 --> 02:36:50,990 If you can't forget about this. 2010 02:36:53,140 --> 02:36:58,080 Where could a homeless person who's living on the streets legally occupied? 2011 02:36:58,880 --> 02:37:05,500 If there's no shelter about it, and how could they not be in violation of the city code? 2012 02:37:07,340 --> 02:37:23,000 And whether under the current mixture of ordinances, or some consolidated version of the current ordinances, or the slightly modified improved, or version that's being proposed, 2013 02:37:24,840 --> 02:37:30,200 Not on private property, presumably, not on the DOT right away, most of it. 2014 02:37:30,300 --> 02:37:34,060 I mean, I think that ultimately it comes back to the question of the musical chairs. 2015 02:37:35,180 --> 02:37:41,000 And somebody is violating city code, because there's not a chair, you know, 2016 02:37:42,440 --> 02:37:46,280 city attorney at the last meeting, talked a lot about what the definition of occupied is. 2017 02:37:46,280 --> 02:37:55,940 people take space where legally can somebody be if not on a city property or a public property. 2018 02:37:58,580 --> 02:38:05,680 This is a very difficult question to answer and I think in Houston where they had success 2019 02:38:05,680 --> 02:38:12,640 with an ordinance very similar to this, they first offered shelter and if you did not accept 2020 02:38:12,640 --> 02:38:21,700 the offer of shelter, then there were criminal misdemeanor but have you, for refusing shelter. 2021 02:38:23,200 --> 02:38:26,720 But if there is no legal place to go, 2022 02:38:29,840 --> 02:38:30,740 what do we expect? 2023 02:38:35,680 --> 02:38:41,940 That's, you know, and so, you know, whether the current ordinances or the proposed ordinances, 2024 02:38:42,340 --> 02:38:45,660 you know, how's the chief supposed to enforce even the current ordinances? 2025 02:38:45,660 --> 02:38:50,660 If all he's really doing is making someone go to a different public space, 2026 02:38:51,960 --> 02:38:55,880 violating the same ordinance, just not the same square footage. 2027 02:38:58,460 --> 02:39:01,120 So are you solving that issue of question now? 2028 02:39:01,760 --> 02:39:02,800 Where are you going to get the money? 2029 02:39:03,620 --> 02:39:08,280 Again, I have no answers, but I just want to make certain that the community understands this. 2030 02:39:10,780 --> 02:39:13,760 We get 40% of the tax revenue. 2031 02:39:13,760 --> 02:39:20,980 county gets 60. We get 20% of the sales tax revenue, county gets 80. And I'm not 2032 02:39:20,980 --> 02:39:26,080 blaming this on the county. But our financial structure based on what the state 2033 02:39:26,080 --> 02:39:30,480 allows us to understand the status status, state law, business, less money. And 2034 02:39:30,480 --> 02:39:34,600 yet, we don't have human services, nor the Department of Health under 2035 02:39:34,600 --> 02:39:39,480 our jurisdictions. I want to be pushed into it. So I want to be very clear about 2036 02:39:39,480 --> 02:39:43,180 this. And we are the only entity in the only government that has supported 2037 02:39:44,060 --> 02:39:49,620 housing with supported services, and the links that I reserve and it's fairly, and I know 2038 02:39:49,620 --> 02:39:54,980 how much time it took to do that. So unless you're going to change the financial model and 2039 02:39:54,980 --> 02:39:57,880 give cities and by the way, you could give us more. 2040 02:40:00,000 --> 02:40:28,660 The sales tax revenue based on what this county is allowed to do, based on either per, on adorant tax, or per capita, and you know this, we'd get 50% of the sales tax revenue, which if we're willing as a community, this family, money, we would, but you're putting all of it, for all of it, I'm not saying you're putting all of it, because I'm not saying that to anybody else, but all of it seems to have now nested in the corporate citizens, whether we like it or not. 2041 02:40:28,660 --> 02:40:36,300 And I would challenge anybody to say, we're going to put a facility in an unincorporary 2042 02:40:36,300 --> 02:40:43,500 of the county, and I would love to see what kind of blood back they get from those senses. 2043 02:40:44,280 --> 02:40:49,280 It's a very complex situation, and I'm not everybody's passionate about this, we're trying 2044 02:40:49,280 --> 02:40:54,480 to find something that works for everybody, and I hear what you're saying, but a lot 2045 02:40:54,480 --> 02:40:59,340 comes down to funding. And a lot of people will say it's not our problem, it's a city's 2046 02:40:59,340 --> 02:41:04,660 problem. You deal with it. But at some point time it will overflow from here and it's 2047 02:41:04,660 --> 02:41:10,880 going to go into a place where you may be residing and you may not like it. But it's always 2048 02:41:10,880 --> 02:41:17,440 outing within the corporate ceiling based on the map that you showed us, Richard. And it's 2049 02:41:17,440 --> 02:41:23,460 not, it's overwhelmed our capacity to handle it. And for us to be able to put up any additional 2050 02:41:23,460 --> 02:41:29,120 money for additional housing for shelter and does take time. And should all the shelters be in 2051 02:41:29,120 --> 02:41:34,220 the same? I'm just gonna ask that question point black to everybody. Is that money 2052 02:41:34,220 --> 02:41:40,380 also fair? No. And Kevin said it best. The last meeting is parts of our community that are 2053 02:41:40,380 --> 02:41:45,160 receiving the run of it. And is it fair to those parts of the community that are having to 2054 02:41:45,160 --> 02:41:50,540 seek the run of it? Other people said it was not a problem, it's not a my background here. 2055 02:41:51,480 --> 02:42:02,420 And the very people that were well, some of the people that were playing the loudest, if you had to pick a geographic location and do not have a accounting work to put the healing place, it would be in a medical community. 2056 02:42:03,180 --> 02:42:07,140 And we call them tons of blood back from everybody. 2057 02:42:08,360 --> 02:42:10,160 And we're seeing in the world. 2058 02:42:10,160 --> 02:42:15,660 That's what we did and you have to, that has to be part of the equation too, who we're dealing with. 2059 02:42:15,920 --> 02:42:18,500 Nobody wants it. Everybody wants to solve the problem. 2060 02:42:18,740 --> 02:42:21,180 It's like everybody wants to go to heaven, everybody wants to die. 2061 02:42:31,060 --> 02:42:31,700 You ain't got a 2062 02:42:35,290 --> 02:42:35,530 word. 2063 02:42:35,790 --> 02:42:36,990 You close those knees. 2064 02:42:38,670 --> 02:42:39,550 Anybody else? 2065 02:42:39,870 --> 02:42:40,150 Yes. 2066 02:42:42,720 --> 02:42:43,880 Come on, Mr. Harris. 2067 02:42:43,980 --> 02:42:45,080 Okay, I gotta stand up. 2068 02:42:45,440 --> 02:42:45,700 Yeah, okay. 2069 02:42:46,080 --> 02:42:47,200 One point out of it, 2070 02:42:48,380 --> 02:42:54,620 It's a good point, but the reality is that the camping order comes like a spade limit. 2071 02:42:55,060 --> 02:42:57,120 It's really not going to be enforced on everybody. 2072 02:42:57,540 --> 02:43:03,240 If WPD were tagging people going to have a 35 and a 35 sign, I mean, the cars, people 2073 02:43:03,240 --> 02:43:04,320 lined up, stopped. 2074 02:43:05,760 --> 02:43:13,420 It's really a tool for WPD to use when there is a serious problem these to be addressed. 2075 02:43:14,340 --> 02:43:20,480 So, I mean, the thing about envisioning that they're going to run off every single person 2076 02:43:20,480 --> 02:43:23,900 who's sleeping on the house and public property, 2077 02:43:25,940 --> 02:43:28,020 they don't have the manpower to do it, 2078 02:43:28,200 --> 02:43:31,680 but are there some people that they need to be relocated? 2079 02:43:32,360 --> 02:43:33,060 That 2080 02:43:41,670 --> 02:43:46,230 can matter is that June 2020 for the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that 2081 02:43:46,230 --> 02:43:53,990 municipality's can enforce public camping ordinances regardless of how much shelter space is in place. 2082 02:43:54,670 --> 02:44:00,090 And since that time, hundreds of cities, including some of the ones that we've talked about today, 2083 02:44:00,310 --> 02:44:01,690 have rushed to do just that. 2084 02:44:01,770 --> 02:44:02,970 So this is not again. 2085 02:44:02,970 --> 02:44:11,690 Again, we actually, as I've said, it's like some do I get another tool, but it's a loss that I think will be effective as we work towards a bar 2086 02:44:20,550 --> 02:44:20,810 or something. 2087 02:44:21,070 --> 02:44:21,350 You know what? 2088 02:44:21,850 --> 02:44:23,290 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
