A century-old deed kept restrictions on how the old downtown building could be used. Soon, it will house up to 30 beds.
Some people who could potentially be directly impacted stressed the importance of housing.
“I think that’s an awesome idea because it’s very hard for a lot of us to get to the places they want us to go to and having it right here in the central hub where most of the homeless people are -- myself included -- it’s a lot more convenient,” Samantha Lovett said. Mayor Todd Gloria’s Office said the facility will open within two weeks. The preparation is underway and is expected to cost approximately $74,000.
An evaluation will take place to determine the long-term use of the land/building for shelter or housing. “The number of beds is determined by how many the fire marshal determined can safely occupy the building,” said Rachel Laing, City of San Diego Mayor’s Office Director of Communications.
