Some Assembly members say Mayor Dave Bronson’s administration has not come up with an adequate homeless plan as winter approaches. “I have no faith at this point that a plan is being developed and that we will see it,” said Assembly member Perez-Verdia.
At an Assembly Housing and Homelessness committee meeting Wednesday morning, member Felix Rivera said Bronson officials were supposed to provide a winter sheltering plan. But no members of the mayor’s administration were there.
At a special Assembly meeting later that night, Rivera presented a resolution to establish a task force made up of service providers, community stakeholders and city officials. “I have no faith at this point that a plan is being developed and that we will see it,” Perez-Verdia said. “Especially in time to address the crisis that’s in front of us, which is 200 people living in mud at a campground.”
