Their business is shit because of COVID and the building was falling in on itself before the pandemic. Hea hoping to get more money out of it than he otherwise would get and get the buyer to pay for all the repairs. If a homeless shelter goes in there that block is permanently fucked forever. There's a reason that other shelter got built at the margin.

Ok?

No one is forcing the city/county whoever to buy it. If a deal is brokered for them to buy it though, it’d serve the community better as a homeless shelter than as you suggest, a failing pizza place.

If a low barrier homeless shelter is not built wouldn’t there still be homeless people on smithfield street? It’s not like not building it will make them go away.

The people posting in these non-stop threads about the homeless "threat" don't want the homeless to be helped, they just want them gone by any means necessary.

Making them go away without any inconvenience to himself is exactly what Kentucky here wants. He doesn't want to deal with them.

So what's your solution to the homeless question? Bus tickets to California?
