Its the only way! Make everything legal and the "stigma" of being a drug user will go away, and all these homeless will somehow (?) just find the confidence to go get a job and a home? lmao it is so absurd hahaah
@@johnvetula4101 It's worked in other places, i think the idea is to take the funding and spend it toward rehabs, education, etc other than on locking addicts up.
What kind of shit is that asking working people to allow strangers to live on their land. Worst thing I ever heard.you let 1 you open the door to more.
Salem already has these shelters. They're called "prison." But I guess we're in a time and place where the label of "homeless" can now be used to permit someone to commit crimes with impunity.
This problem didn't happen overnight. It developed over time, supported by repeated bad decisions by mostly Democrat leaders, despite the minority of conservative voices warning of the long term affects. Start by voting for leaders that value property rights and personal responsibility. It will take a long time to fix this. Stopping the flow of fentanyl across the southern border will help
I guess the real question is, DEAR GOV, WHAT DO YOU NEED US CITIZENS TO DO, TO HELP END THIS PROBLEM, WE ARE READY TO VOTE ON ROCK SOLID SOLUTIONS TO END THIS QUAGMIRE..
Get a couple million dollars from the city, hire some outreach workers at $125,500 a year to supervise the garbage and feces piles. Then get bottled water and snacks for everyone. After that, pro bono lawyers sue homeowners and businesses for being mean and uncaring. But for crying out loud, don’t arrest the drug dealers.
This is a problem in Portland as well. Last year going to the starlight parade with my family, I witnessed 2 homeless people dry humping literally right next to the parade route and no one did anything. I haven seen, interacted and dealt with the aftermath of the homeless crisis in Portland. Portland is no better then Salem on this. I admire that Salem is at least trying to do something. I never hear Portland city officials trying anything new. The amount of garbage, human waste, and down right nastiness I've seen every single time I go into Portland is a disgrace to our city and it's citizens. Portland used to be a clean and ethical city that was warm but firm. Some thing needs to be done.
A court decided a couple years back, that no city can enforce a non camping ordinance on public property, unless they had real shelter available and it had been offered to them . Of course it should also be safe and decent, and too many shelters are not up to t hat standard. Tents also afford privacy- something most shelters do not. You are far safer from contagious disease too, outside of full shelter. All indoor shelters should have dividers like office cubicles, it would be actually a humane way to treat people and far more attractive to those who resist being placed in a shelter.
How many of these people are actually from the area, and how many of them are "travelers"? Help the ones who are from there and send the others back to where they're from. The proposal to allow homeowners to let homeless people car camp on their property is a ridiculous idea. Suppose your neighbor lets some junkies live in their car in the driveway right next to your house. I don't think many people would appreciate that.
As a person who has been homeless several times over the course of 25 years; it sickens me that the city would say they are going to do something to help and drop the ball. I am appalled! Something needs to be done. I have some ideas and am starting to network to get help implementing them into the city of Salem. My hope is that we have more beds available for the homeless and a site specifically for those that struggle with mental illness as soon as possible.
This was the intentional disgusting mess before the plandemic. Afterwards they sent them into the park across the street calling it their shelter in place. I live 5 houses on the other side of that park and after they lifted the order more than 6 months later many of the dilapidated vehicles would no longer run and so they pushed them along the streets of my neighborhood. I get to live in a garbage dump now for nearly 3 years. The city took the ONLY warming shelter building for homeless and gave it to the police that needed more space. No sooner than tax payers approved the deal the pd promptly demolished the building and built a new one. No warming shelter
Ending private banks and only allowing state banks, *public-banking,* to operate where the billions in profits are used to help the state's people not to enrich the top 1%. Is how we finance free dental and healthcare for all Americans.
there's no reason they couldn't open a big empty retail space for 100 people to sleep there, who can each have their own tent for privacy and safety, as well as better for airborne disease prevention.
theirs no reason many of these people can't take care of themselves... expecting everyone to wipe their ass is ridiculous. Mental health is one thing, but I see tons of these people who can work and take care of themselves. many of them are young...
The *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV] residents pay rent for their units based on a percentage of their net income. The HSV pays for utility hook ups, one free meal a day, and childcare. Laundry, shower, toilet, and cooking-facilities are provided. Dumpters and the staff's salaries; which should total only $260,000 a year. Where is it getting its "millions more to run" lie from?
*4 of 4* The homeless can simply move the tents they are using now into the homeless-village and the RVs are assigned a parking space. *Or the **_Shelter 100,_** provided by FEMA,* is a $9,500 shelter that is climate controlled, built in one hour, is 100 sq. ft., and uses a folding bunk system to house up to four beds. *_Pallet Shelter's_* private sleeping cabins offer *security* and durability. Which addresses the concerns of the homeless who reject the restrictions of “bed-only” homeless-shelters; for only one night.
So why did they close the mission downtown? Was downtown few weeks back and it was all fenced off and gutted out? Been seeing tent in wet land areas the land around the Kroc center looks like a junk yard the city also closed the campground off Turner road you can't even visit the park back there. Look down some the side streets like behind Big lots. So sad seeing new apartments go up and know that none of them homeless or even myself will be able to afford them an all the houses just sitting empty wait to be torn down and made into empty lot?
When are you news people going to address the big problem such as where is all this homelessness coming from, what is the root cause, why are there no jobs? Why is there no affordable housing, no mental hospitals, lack of social workers, lack of support? Why are thousands of people so unhappy, unhoused, mentally ill, addicted? The question is why.
Where ever I lay my head is home. You will not put people in jail for sitting or laying outside. Want to be invisible, get lost in the woods. Build the shelters away from businesses and schools. Working toilets and drinking fountains, add a garden to feed yourselves. Street sweepers, sidewalk versions, every morning. Governor has a big house, surely there's room there, maybe even feed some mouths.
It cannot *ban homelessness* nor can it hold back the tides. It ends homelessness by building affordable housing *Homeless Shelter Villages* [HSV]. Where rent is 20% of net income for a four bed shelter.
There is places for men to go if they want to be clean and change their life. That's the problem though. People want to get and high and not work for anything. I am at the Ugm in Salem and part of a program that feeds and shelters you and all you have to do is be clean from drug's and alcohol and want to change. I am doing great and feel like I am on my way to being self reliant. I want to work for my own thing's and not be a burden to society anymore. All you have to do is want it and try. For women, there is a place called Somoka.
Can anyone afford to pay for: rent, utilities, food, auto insurance, and -gasoline- deatholine? If he makes only $11 an hour with no healthcare or dental benefits; yes or no?
In Los Angeles the _Arroyo Seco Tiny Home Village,_ _Alexandria Park Tiny Home Village,_ and the _Chandler Street Tiny Home Village._ Proves that everything it said about the cost to build and run tiny home villages being in the millions; *is a lie.*
*Paragraph 4 of 4.* 89 million Americans is 27% of the *working* population! Or a $50,000 a year stipend for 40 million American families of 4 making less than $15 an hour; *so that they are NOT made permanently homeless.* Amen.
Homeless problem? What homeless problem? Kate doesn’t have a problem with it until they take all the crap,garbage and used needles and dump it on her front lawn. That might get her attention.
F of Parts A-F The homeless-shelters are powered and heated with butane and solar-panels, depending on how well the infrastructure held up, which are integrated into the construction of the _homeless-shelters._ Which are a dry, clean, safe place to sleep, and store their stuff. People from the city drive out to the *Homeless-Shelter-Villages* [HSV] to pick up food bank food; because that is where the food banks and free-ice machines are located.
i hate how these new motel shelters are mainly opening up FOR THE ONES JUST NOW MADE HOMELESS, FROM THE FIRES. what about the long term homeless who are really wearing out and on the edge of death, just from weather, no sleep for years, being victimized on the streets, mental illness etc? A lot of those who lost a home to fire had insurance! what the hell is wrong with them that they can't pay their own dam way? And many of them have cars, campers and camp trailers to camp in! while the unsheltered homeless often have NOTHING, not even a tent. But even someone in a tent is more needy than someone in a camper or trailer. WOW, disgusting.
*In Europe* rent increases are limited to 2% above the rate of inflation *ONLY.* _In Mexico it is illegal to raise anyone's rent more than 5% per year!_ In the civilized countries of Canada and Europe guns are outlawed, citizen cannot be made homeless due to an unexpected $500 medical expense, free college educations are provided so predatory student loan debt does not make people homeless, and the global w@rming that is causing the destruction of housing, leading to 40% rent raises; is being addressed.
Provide the refugees it is creating with accommodations in a _Homeless Shelter Village_ [HSV] using _Pallet Shelter's_ mobile components. $781,000 establishes a HSV for 200 people. $160 million creates 205 HSVs to house 41,000 people; within _Pallet Shelter's,_ two person, *Shelter 64.*
All you have to do is tie the rate of property tax rates to the governments annual cost of living rates. That way your city can afford to house and feed these folks. And build treatment centers to fix there drug problems. Problem fixed!!!
Is the evidence of *extinction by the year 2060 runaway-AGW* all around it right now? _Which is creating housing shortages?_ *Which is causing 40% rent increases?* _Which is causing the increased number of homeless people; yes or no?_
D With subsidized for the homeless electric-cargo-bikes at all bus stops from companies like: _Wheels, Lime, Link, and Veo_ in the city and at the homeless encampment; so the working homeless can get to work. *Which are large 1,000 people disaster relief centers.* With trucked in water. Shared laundry, toilet, cooking, and shower-facilities. With restaurants, post office, and stores; just like a large campground.
These are the component to create *Homeless Shelter Villages* [HSV] using _Pallet Shelter's_ existing HSV products: the _Community Room_ sells for $37,000, the _Bathroom_ costs $35,000, and the _Services Office_ costs $9,000. So for only $81,000 a city can establish a HSV. The two person _Shelter 64_ costs $7,000. 100 X $7,000 = $7,000,000. For $7,201,000 the city can establish a HSV for 200 residents. For $160 million a city can establish 22 HSVs to shelter 4,000 residents.
E of Parts A-F In the on-site factories the homeless population's workforce is used to make more homeless shelters from plastic-waste taken from the oceans and government subsidized Styrofoam; and electric car conversion kits which cost only $3,600 because _The Defense Production Act_ was invoked. _Which does not include the cost of batteries and installation._
All it takes is one broken down car, one medical bill, one accident. It’s scary how easy it is for us to fall into debt and become homeless. The gray area really needs to be spoken about more.
*2 of 4* Cities are spending millions of dollars to open and run homeless bed shelters; that the homeless reject due to the many restrictions and lack of security. _Pallet Shelter's_ two person _Shelter 64_ cost only $7,000 and provides a dignified, secure sleeping base of operation. So for only $201,000 [$120 tents] a city can establish and run a *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV] with 1000 shelters that can accommodate 2,000 people: 2 beds and belongings per 10'X10' tent.
*Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.* Deny instincts to be cruel. *Think before you speak and choose to be kind.* _Choose to be charitable._ *Know that there is a Holy Trinity. So be brave. Have faith. Be humble.* Find the courage to grasp a *real-man's* first obligation; *to protect his family and our Mother the Earth. From being injured and killed* _due to the bottomless greed of Satan's minions._ Amen.
Unfortunately for millions of Americans in order to survive, those made homeless, *due to failed Republican polices,* will have to lower their standard of living dramatically and live in modest accommodations. Such as _Pallet Shelter's_ *Shelter 64* which sleeps two in a private cabin. Placed in combination with _Pallet Shelter's_ other components: *Community Room,* Bathroom, and Services Office; to form an entire *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV]. Where the rent paid to FEMA for the 2 person shelter is 10% of net income; and 20% for the four person shelter. Which goes to providing _one free meal a day_ and *childcare* so that the working poor can go to work: in the Community Room. Amen.
B of Parts A-F The B!den administration has proposed *Christian, compassionate,* homeless solutions *but Republicans* do not want the FEMA homeless encampments within their cities; which *have the highest number of homeless families.* The solution is FEMA coordinated homeless communities a 30 minute bus ride, 24/7, every 20 minutes, from the FEMA established homeless shelters; to the city. *Established on land made vacant due to global-warming extreme weather events; that no one should rebuild on.*
it will solve the problem...we need to give them unlimited Fentynal and a tent in the middle of Eastern WA where they can stay and use it and not better anyone. Instead of wasting 100k per year for each junkie....spent 5k.
A of Parts A-F *Due to the destruction of housing* caused by catastrophic-runaway-anthropogenic-global-warming [CRAGW] _extreme weather events;_ and *failed Republican policies.* There are housing shortages all over America which *is causing rent increases; and even more homelessness!* The FEMA operated homeless-communities do not require residents to check out, there is no sign-in and sign-out issues as they are long-term shelters; which provide the privacy of individual living spaces. Where the shelter residents can feel safe from the other camp residences. *Which removes many of the objections those homeless living in tents who refuse to use city established homeless-shelters; have voiced.*
*3 of 4* Those with income pay rent which is 10% of their net income to the *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV] for their 2 person _Shelter 64;_ and 20% of their net income as rent for the 4 person _Shelter 100._ Their rent money goes to pay for: *childcare for working parents,* and one free meal per day; in the *Community-Room.*
I would like to thank Seattle, Portland, SF and LA for housing all the homeless people , I know it must be difficult , please keep up the good work. Because of your efforts, I can live in an almost Homeless Free environment . Thank you MUCH !!!
They need somewhere safe to go at night where they can have a warm bed. I know there was a rise. It was very sad that all these politicians are making all the money while so many people still suffer. They shouldn’t make that much if there’s this many on the streets. Yes some don’t want to work. Some might have deeper issues and would love to see some type of help there but that comes down to re wiring a brain. I hope to make a difference as much as I can but not 1 person can do it alone.
U.S. cities need to have "residency requirements" for the services they provide to the homeless. Otherwise, they will continue to attract homeless people from all over the U.S. and the world. When a city continuously gets more and more people moving into its Skid Row, then the situation quickly becomes unmanageable. Salem and Portland have a sizeable non-native vagrants residing within their boders.
I'm sure this is rather simplistic of me to say, but drugs never help. I understand the escapism provided by drugs, but it doesn't help you. It's like ppl don't understand that basic fact about life anymore. No matter how bad life is going, you can guarantee using drugs will make it much worse. That's where the empathy gets reduced for me. Drugs don't help. You can see your way out eventually if you remain substance free, but you're screwed once you decide to partake. And to me, it's a choice to get high.
*Reducing rents in America part 4 of 4:* There is allot of land being ravaged by extinction by the year 2060, runaway-AGW extreme weather events. Using this land that will be ravaged again by floods 3 feet higher; to establish *Homeless Shelter Villages* [HSV]; _built on trailers._ So like a Native American village the entire community can be moved to follow the buffalo or avoid a flood. *No part of America will be left untouched by its procrastination to taking the steps to stop extinction by the year 2060; due to catastrophic-runaway-anthropogenic-global-warming [CRAGW].*
*Sentence 1 of 4* Cities / FEMA can create 2,000 resident villages for the homeless for only $201,000; two beds and belongings per tent. *Sentence 2 of 4* Go to _Pallet Shelter's_ *Sentence 3 of 4* page to see existing homeless communities. *Sentence 4 of 4* Using 1,000 $120 10'X10' tents.
*Paragraph 2 of 2.* Going forward the Christian way to meet the need to house those made homeless by no fault of their own. Is to live like Native Americans who would pick up and move their entire village to follow the buffalo; or in the year 2024 to avoid runaway-AGW caused home destroying events. This means either building _Pallet Shelter's_ homeless village shelters and component on trailers. Or because they can be put up and taken down in one hour. Taken down and hauled away on trucks to avoid the floods that will be 3 feet higher than they are today. Amen.
C The FEMA homeless-communities / encampments are _close enough to the city to work;_ *and far enough away from the town to be out of sight and mind.* Established on land now vacant due to the extreme weather events which is creating the housing shortage. Due to the catastrophic-runaway-anthropogenic-global-warming *[CRAGW] that Republiguns deny exists.*
*1 of 4* Cities can eliminate homeless tent encampments by replacing them with *Homeless Shelter Villages* [HSV] using _Pallet Shelter's_ existing *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV] components. The _Community Room_ sells for $37,000 and serves as a shared laundry room, restaurant, *child daycare center,* and addiction services center. The _Bathroom_ cost $35,000 and the _Services Office_ costs $9,000. So for only $81,000 a city can establish a *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV]. The 10'X10' *Camping Cube Sport Pop Up Tent* that costs only $120 provides protection from the elements; for two people and their belongings.

Whoever made the decision to make it known to show numbers GOOD FOR YOU ... you giving Salem of seeing EFFORT when you're bringing numbers up ... Thank you
Rot rot rot... Love watching dems eat their own.. I predicted this 3 yrs ago.. And i was exactly right... All the stores will close,, thats what's next
Every council member should be arrested for passing laws that are illegal and violate case law! Nobody has the right to deprive someone from sleep! That is torture and if you are ok with torture just wait until it's your turn!
Being homeless shouldn't be a crime. But leaving needles where kids or dogs can get stuck should be a felony. leaving thousands of pounds of trash should warrant jail. And all laws should be applied to homeless just as equally as the housed...ie you cant break the law even if you are a junkie.
What's of worth? Where eye-dollar-tree is of worth, everything is going to cost! Where one another is of worth, there is no cost.... It's priceless! You cannot serve two masters! You'll either love the one and hate the other.... MONOPOLY money is make-believe worth! It's the well-being of one another that's TRUELY of worth! They who trust in a lie are betrayed already! Because you trust in a lie you deny your neighbor's well-being! Your either for me or against me. CAPITALIST are out to acquire MONOPOLY money at all costs, not friends! CAPITALISM DIVIDES AND DENIES EVERYONE WORTH AS TO ONE ANOTHER'S WELL-BEING... FOR PROFIT! Every injustice, is over something else being of worth, than one another's well-being! - the homeless in Babylon. HE'S US! (In the mirror suffering the MONOPOLY of make-believe worth!)
Hey RepubliKKKAR15, does it believe a worker making only $11 an hour at a part-time job that does *NOT* provide healthcare and dental benefits? Will be able to pay his 40% rent increase due to the extinction-runaway-AGW caused housing shortages; yes or no?

Ending private banks and only allowing state banks, public-banking, to operate where the billions in profits are used to help the state's people not to enrich the top 1%. Is how we finance free dental and healthcare for all Americans.
