5. Development of skilled nursing facilities for low-income individuals Question 14
Yes, because they are proven to work in our County (as exampled by the Project Homekey project in Paso Robles and Cabins for Change in Grover Beach) in terms of getting homeless individuals off the streets permanently, and with little to no impact on the surrounding neighborhoods. We need more of these projects, and need to go in places that makes sense (such as connections to other supportive services, grocery stores, transit, etc.). That means neighborhoods like mine need to say "yes" to these types of projects.

4. Development of additional treatment facilities
5. Development of skilled nursing facilities for low-income individuals Question 14
I already live close to such a development, Bishop Street Commons.
Occasionally there is an outburst from a tenant but for the most part, it feels like everything is fairly under control. I don't let my grandchildren play outside by themselves and I have built a tall security fence around my backyard because I do have a little fear based on some of the outbursts we've experienced. There are people who are not tenants that park their vehicles in our neighborhood and spend the night with the tenants on occasion.

Yes. I assume that "support" will always have a price tag for tax payers. I think housing and support as described here could focus on people with children.

supportive housing project in my neighborhood. My concerns primarily revolve around potential impacts on the community's character and property values. Additionally, as a resident with small children, the prospect of such a project in close proximity raises concerns about safety, making us feel uneasy about the potential implications for our family's well-being. I believe it's essential to explore alternative locations that can effectively address the needs of the individuals requiring support while ensuring the safety and comfort of all residents, including those with young families.

I live downtown, it makes sense for this type of facility to be in a central location with easy mobility options. However, I think this type of facility should also provide an avenue for "work" such as weeding, trash pick-up, etc. Something to tie the individuals to the community, have a sense of pride of place and belonging.

Yes, but there would need to be adequate parking. Currently, many vehicles tend to congregate on streets in business parks. Parking in those streets is critical for the businesses who are located there and lack of parking impacts them negatively. But there are often empty lots on those streets that have not been developed. Perhaps the city could lease those lots and use them for homeless parking.

Yes. I would support transitional and affordable housing as medium and long term solutions for people who don't want to be on the street and are down on their luck. There are some people who are homeless in this county because the cost of living is too high. There needs to be a movement toward these longer term solutions so there is an avenue to home people who don't want to be homeless to get off the street. The issue I see in downtown SLO is that homeless shelters and other short291 | communityfeedback.opengov.com/13401 Created with OpenGov | January 22, 2024, 9:43 AM Survey Report: Preventing and Addressing Homelessness in the City of SLO Contribute your feedback to inform the City's homelessness response efforts and initiatives
term resources appear to make it a destination for folks who appear to want to live a homeless lifestyle (which is often paired with drug and alcohol addiction). While I see the need for these short-term resources, I generally have a negative attitude toward these things because the drugaddicted, alcoholic folks who have overrun downtown SLO, as they make me feel extremely unsafe there as a woman. I am daily seeing homeless individuals who are unstable and unsafe. There is also human waste in our streets, which is a big problem.

Yes because I live near a low-income apartment complex currently and affordable long-term housing is one of the needs to combat the homelessness in SLO City. I think the job training aspect of a project like this would be especially beneficial but with requirements so that these individuals will eventually grow their skills and be self-sufficient in the future. It would also contribute to easing the high demand for permanent workers in various fields in this area that aren't high school or college students who will likely leave their job after a year or two.

Question 14
This would be welcomed if the individuals would actually use these facilities to better themselves. Many unhoused are drug addicts and criminals that make our neighborhoods unsafe and unclean. Those individuals are causing the problems for the real unhoused people that will become good citizens. We need those individuals to follow our laws or leave our city. I do not want to see our town become a slum in some areas.
The trash, bodily fluids and feces are repugnant. It makes our parks, open spaces and sidewalks unclean and unsafe.

If the permanent supportive housing project houses mostly families and mentally stable individuals, yes. If the permanent supportive housing project houses many folks with active mental health issues who are getting help and perhaps working their way back to employment, then I think that there are areas of the city that a permanent supportive housing project would be a good fit and areas that would be a not so good fit. I would prefer that this type of housing project that houses many folks with active mental health issues not be near an elementary school or a family neighborhood with a park where young children commonly go to play. I live in a neighborhood with a park that often is full of children and the older children are often not accompanied by their parents. Occasionally a homeless individual visits the park and I see that parents of young kids are wary of these individuals because they don't know how to know if this person is "harmless" or struggling/unstable.

No. Build a “Hospital” that has parking lots, nurses, case managers, PD, security, rooms, showers- nursing home but more hospital like… (sierra Vista would be perfect). Court Mandated they go there but can pick if they want to live in the parking lot, a room, get help with housing, rehab, job support….
Gated in. Not prison but only can enter and exist through security.
Need to incorporate trauma informed care and nervous system regulation- healing with different modalities such as horses, ketamine therapy, Mandatory rehab.
Also find out which middle class families are trying to help their loved ones but can barely afford to live and can’t pay taxes and help a loved one but are struggling to do so…
Many on the verge of homeless. Homeless prevention so to speak… incentive program that supports ADU’s for struggling loved ones, tax break if family has some resources to help but have to decide between which ones.
Also knowing that providing housing isn’t going to make them cure from the addiction but helps with a safe place… addiction will continue. Need MUCH more support.

yes. small housing projects need to be dotted throughout the area. keeping facilities small will help mitigate the problems associated with congregation of homeless folks.

No, I would not. In my opinion, assuming that individuals are going to give up bad habits just because they get housing is naive and unrealistic. I believe that these individuals should be mandated by a court to get treatment or to be institutionalized into a hospital before they are given a bunch of resources that they cannot use responsibly. I think that if we are going to use taxpayer dollars on homelessness, we should only be investing in things that will definitely work. Giving individuals a slew of benefits without the ironclad accountability of court-ordered treatment will only bring more drugs, trash, feces and poverty into our neighborhoods. Ordinary citizens should not have to risk the value of their home and the safety of their neighborhood because of weak policies.

No because the problem is not lack of housing. The problem is mental health issues and addiction issues that keep people on the streets and out of homes, jobs, relationships. They don't need more handouts; they need ways to be contributing members to our community.

Question 14
Yes, but only for those with metal heath issues. I would argue that many of the homeless in this city are here by choice... Many are in one way or another, homeless due to poor choices, drugs, addition, and even the desire to live a nomadic lifestyle. A study to understand the % of homeless by choice (drugs/addiction) or mental illness needs to be completed. Those with the mental health issues need to be help and support, and I would support permanent housing for this portion of the population. Those facing addiction need treatment, and I would support temp housing for those wishing to get off the street. For those that come here to exploit the community with a the desire to live a nomadic lifestyle and cause harm to the community via violations of theft, trespassing, loitering, littering, and steeling shopping carts, etc, need to be addressed.
I support the expansion of low security prisons, instead of just letting those individuals move down the street to just repeat the offenses.

Probably. The neighborhood includes a high traffic arterial road and nearby commercial areas. The homeless are frequently present already as are other public. A well run facility in high traffic commercial to residential transitions areas would likely not change the character or nature of the neighborhood.

I would not mind but I believe the majority of the city of slo would not like it. I have lived in slo for 29 years and the biggest change I have noticed is the type of homeless we have. A lot of more drug use amoung the homeless and much more present. Homeless in the slo was always there but growing up it felt like the majority of them were just asking for change/food and not bothering locals. Now it seems to be much more drug use or schizophrenic which makes me feel less safe and concerned. I would walk around downtown slo by myself at 10-12 years old, today I would never let my kids do that.

Enforce LAW and ORDER, drugs are illegal, nor is impacting or obstructing public right of ways.

Yes, because if we say we support these changes we need to support them even when they may impact us indirectly by being a part of our neighborhood. And because those involved in subsidized housing need space to exist as well, they are not less than their neighbors.

Question 14
No.
I prioritize community safety and believe that people living in the neighborhood, especially home owners, should have a say in whether or not they are comfortable with that type of facility close to their homes.
The people within the neighborhood should be given the time and opportunity to protest, the proposed facility should be required to notify all persons within a certain radius and publish a notice in the newspaper.
And if they don't get a certain approval percentage the facility will not be put in that location.

Question 14
No. These projects should be more equitably located through out the city.
As it is now, my neighborhood has been pressured into building more high density housing projects than any other part of the city except for cal poly student housing. It’s ALWAYS in my neighborhood. It’s unjust that housing the unhoused means jamming them into any high density neighborhood being developed but never in the sprawling suburbs we’re seeing built across from laguna lake or on Foothill where the developers couldn’t get their developments built fast enough for students who don’t have any problem paying $2000 for a single bed in a shared bedroom.

No, these type of faculties should be kept either in the Prado Rd area near the current homeless shelter on city or county property. Such a campus 342 | communityfeedback.opengov.com/13401 Created with OpenGov | January 22, 2024, 9:43 AM Survey Report: Preventing and Addressing Homelessness in the City of SLO Contribute your feedback to inform the City's homelessness response efforts and initiatives
could also be planned for the new Prado Rd. extension near the Damon Garcia fields. That way space could be kept between it and new residences. The new industrial development on Tank Farm Rd. is also good location. Current residential neighborhoods are not conducive or welcome these types of projects.

I'd support case management, job training. If they can show and willing to improve, then subsidized housing will help the individual. Some homeless people choose to be homeless. No sense self responsibility. They prefer to drink and use drugs substance.

Yes. We live between Mitchell Park and the Amtrak Station parking lot where many houseless people congregate. It would be more conducive for our neighborhood to have a permanent place for them to go rather than seeing them drinking, doing drugs and/or passed out in Mitchell Park where their behavior discourages people from enjoying their park or camping along the railroad tracks or in the parking lot where they leave mounds of trash.

Question 14
No of course not. The root of homelessness is not inadequate job training.
The root is substance abuse and mental health disorders, usually in conjunction of 'which came first'. I support case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment options all being provided. I also support providing for homeless folks daily needs, but in a transient fashion. None of these options should be occurring near residential areas.
