This new initiative sounds promising, but it is hard not to think of the tens of millions spent in years past and the little progress they seemed to produce.
Imagine being a homeowner who invested your life’s savings and years of sweat equity into your downtown-area residence, and then a homeless encampment springs up right by where you and your family live. Insane men with their buttocks showing now urinate in broad daylight on your street. Needles everywhere. Backpack-wearing zombies clog up every nearby underpass, eliminating normal pedestrian usage.
So you, as a homeowner, look up the organization the city has partnered with, hoping for some assistance. Good luck. Go take a gander at who these CHIP people are. The staff biographies on their website indicate a profoundly unserious organization, shot through with wokeness and navel-gazing:
“Pizza nerd.”
“they/them – Motherdad to 6 incredible humans.”
“Avid coffee-drinker.”
“Unapologetically queer.” (Multiples of this one. Good for you. It’s all about you.)
“Sometimes anxious. Professional nap taker.”
This is who is tasked with addressing the plague of bums overrunning our downtown. Great.
