It's nuts, the opposition to it. You have people on both sides arguing against it.
There are those who simply despise ANY spending on the homeless, that the police and government should simply jail everyone for vagrancy and get the problem out of site.
Then there are the homeless advocates who would rather spend 90K (and millions more) on soup kitchens, beds and low cost housing.
But you know, if you are a large city or other administration, and you have let's say 10 million dollars to spend on the homeless problem, well you are an idiot if you don't do some sort of needs assessment before spending said money. There's no responsible manager, private or public, who would do otherwise.
Is this the best way to do it? I'm not sure, but I certainly don't object to them trying.
