Here's Why Some Dallas Residents Oppose Sobering Center, Other Plans for Sites to Help the Homeless Population
At Monday's Housing and Homelessness Solutions committee, City Council member Jesse Moreno said he continues to get complaints about the homeless in the Central Business District.Dallas County and the city want to transform three properties into places that can serve “our most vulnerable population,” Christine Crossley said, meaning homeless residents. But some residents living near the properties aren't so pleased with the plan.
Casey Thomas, District 3’s City Council member, said to Crossley and Deputy City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert, “I want to emphasize, these are potential or suggested uses at each of these locations, correct? Nothing has been determined?” That was correct. Dallas County is also throwing in funds it got from the American Rescue Plan Act to help pay for the projects.affordable housing
The plans for that property are a little more vague than the others. That site will “provide opportunities to aid people in distress through compassionate care, establishing a sustainable pathway to healing for the most vulnerable segment of our population,” Crossley’s presentation explained.The county will take over the Greenville Avenue property and manage the project from there.
“Well, the beginning place for community input in my district, as well as others, has been, ‘We will have a homeless facility. Now, let’s talk about what it can be and how you can be part of it,’” Mendelsohn explained. “The substance seems to be, in District 10, ‘What do we want to do for people who are poor so that we don’t have a homeless shelter.’ That is completely unacceptable.
