Council can begin to move homelessness pilot project forward
March 15, 2011 - (RealEstateRama) -- "We laid out a timeline that would establish a homeless encampment in SODO before winter weather sets in later this year.

We never expected that Council could take action on this package until SEPA was done. Waiting until June to even begin a review of the full package will jeopardize setting up the encampment before next winter.
