Residents near hotels the City of San Francisco and the State of California are housing homeless people in are complaining about the increase in crime. Not just the “victim-less” crimes like open drug usage, daytime public sex act performances, and your other typical homeless issues. They’re complaining about increases in shootings, burglaries, and other major felonies. You’d think this would have been obvious to anyone with a lick of common sense, but common sense is a natural resource the people of California have lacked for some time.<\/p>\n

Do the people running this cash cow see a problem? Of course not!<\/p>\n

\u201cThousands of vulnerable people have been able to stay safely in place, which helped them tremendously and helped San Francisco in its remarkable efforts to contain the virus,\u201d Abigail Stewart-Kahn, the Interim Director for San Francisco\u2019s Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, said.<\/p>\n

Stewart-Kahn says the program has been a tremendous success, so much so that two hotels will become permanent housing, creating 350 new units for homeless residents through the state\u2019s Project Homekey program.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of those is The Granada and one of those is the Hotel Diva, we need to work really, really fast to move through all of the purchase and start moving people in as quickly as possible,\u201d Stewart-Kahn said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIs it doing what it was intended to do? Is it helping people? I actually think it\u2019s been very successful, I mean incredibly successful,\u201d Randy Shaw said.<\/p>\n

Shaw is the Executive Director of the Tenderloin Housing Clinic, he says this program has helped make neighborhoods like the Tenderloin more safe. Instead of being on the street in front of people\u2019s homes more than 2,000 formerly homeless people have been housed, which has also reduced the potential for the spread of Covid-19.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople who are unhoused it\u2019s a crisis for them. This became not only a crisis for them, but a health risk to everybody else,\u201d Shaw said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even better is the pittance of a price for the help they’re giving these urban vagabonds and troubadours;<\/p>\n

The city enlisted 29 hotels for the SIP program, which costs the city $10 million a month to operate. More than 2,000 people have been brought inside because of it, but the city has not been transparent throughout this process.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It only costs $10 MILLION<\/em><\/strong>? A month? Do the math, that’s $5,000 a month per person. Even with San Francisco’s notoriously high rental prices $5k will get you a very nice 1-3 bedroom in whichever neighborhood of the city you like.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The California brain trust is working overtime on this one. They’re going to ask FEMA to reimburse the city for some (or all) of the expense of this program. With Trump in charge, I’ll tell them fat chance. With Biden nominally running the show? Hunter is probably going to suddenly find himself on the board of directors for a few Bay-area hospitality corporations.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the KoB for the tip on this one.<\/p>\n
