Let’s have a look at them in a couple of years.

To ‘solve’ the ‘problem’ of ‘homelessness’ they need 374 people in EACH of those Tiny Homes. Hopefully, there are built-in bunk beds!

Stupid Socialists.

How is there homeless in the Age of Obama? Everyone should be living in mansions by now.

BTW, a better idea would be to incentivize private developers to build studio apartments or rooms for rent.

They’ll burn them down free-basing their coke.

A friend of mine said, “Welcome to ‘Peestain Estates.’”

Those are cool looking little homes. They’d make perfect chicken coops. How do I get one?

A year should do it.

When my kids were young, I drove them through a subsidized survey and instructed them to make notes of what stood out. Ripped screens, filthy dirty front doors, ratty looking lawns, junk scattered, and, of course, lots of animals sitting on the porches, in the yards, on the front lawn, etc.

This was a fairly new survey and it took little time for the laziness to take over. Every issue they noticed could have been taken care of with very little money, but required effort. It could have been quite a cute little place to live with some nice gardens, clean windows and doors, etc.

How is it people who depend on others can afford numerous pets? It ticks me off.

Sorry! Common sense solutions are NOT allowed in, ‘The People’s Republik of Madistan!’

The LibTards will CUT you before considering that solution to the problem! ;)

It sounds like they are raising private funds.

Good for them.

I expect this enterprise has already been an eye opener, even to this stage. More eye openers to come, I’m sure.

Best of luck, and STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY POCKET.

As George Carlin once said “Everybody has a home. You just need a house to put it in”

lol - a cute little chicken coop indeed! It looks like my daugher’s little hen house - add a little door for the chickens to go in and out, and a cute little weather vane and you’re good to go!

What happened to the Great Society of Johnson? Or his War On Poverty? Spent trillions and we still see ads to help the homeless, feed hungry families ....????

I guess the same people who were crying that people would be dying in the streets unless 0bamacare was passed.

And why would anyone ever move out of them unless forced out? Then this “project” is causing homelessness themselves.
