IDEAS
FOR CITY OF FRESNO TO CONSIDER
RE: HOMELESSNESS
1. Put Neon text signs all across town and at high Schools to show how many people died in Fresno, Ca. from Fentanyl (daily or weekly). It might serve as a warning and a deterrent to citizens and to the homeless crowds, as well as to teens in school. These numbers will fluctuate based on their consumption and fatality rate per measured time frame. However it will serve in sending a message of warning to all citizens including our most vulnerable population as well: the homeless population. Many may argue it's shameful for our city to advertise this data. But in attempting to curtail drug usage and save lives, this issue should not be controversial.
2. Put more trash cans out where the homeless gather like the Mission and Poverello House etc. and other such areas where they hang out.
3. Make the Homeless pick up trash from the streets. It's probably trash they threw out themselves like soiled clothing. Our sidewalks have become their hampers and trash cans.
Making the homeless pick up their trash could earn them credit for community Service. Or they can get a city violation if they get caught throwing their clothes on sidewalks. If it's illegal for drivers to litter; why is it not a violation to litter for pedestrians. Placing more trash cans throughout the downtown areas might help the way the City looks. Getting them to comply will need more training effort.
4. Put trackers on Obama phones so PD knows where the homeless are. Plus its a way to Recoup lost or stolen phones. It could aid in crime solving as well. If such tracking already exists then when the homeless get these phones, they should be able to show their homeless ID for record keeping purposes. This is why ID is vital for our homeless population.
