Glad to see the community growing together. Nice work

[@stacyg585]

I wish my taxes went towards something like this. Every city should be required to get housing like this for the homeless. It's better for the community.

Why pay rent dude if you can have it for free

@@jamesmurphy2828 .. I agree, like the saying " IF you build it, they will come " .. The more they build, the more will come .. Yes ??

I'm very glad to see this happening. Proper tiny houses will be much more encouraging than sheds.

[@doctorjoey3]

I'm curious: Do you think these are " Proper tiny houses " ? and not just metal sheds ?

[@ginaarevalo5806]

Amen

[@stacyhackney6100]

The homeless industry certainly looks profitable.

[@SoapinTrucker]

Well, it's not exactly easy or free to take care of the homeless, not sure why profit is a problem, but that's just me. ;)
