A view of the CDOT-owned property near South Santa Fe Drive And Evans Avenue on Sept. 1, 2023. Mayor Mike Johnston announced on Oct. 9 that the site has been selected to host the first of his planned micro-communities to provide an alternative to unsheltered homelessness in the city. By the end of the year, the property is expected to host enough tiny homes to provide shelter for up to 120 unhoused people.
Administration officials emphasized Monday that the site was carefully vetted on criteria that included fire safety, risks to public health and traffic impacts. The property will be fenced off and will have on-site services including restrooms, trash collection, kitchens, laundry, mental health and employment support.
Following the mayor’s release of his preliminary site list, City Councilwoman Flor Alvidrez, who represents Overland as part of her District 7, said she believed the micro-community would improve the situation with homelessness in the area. As of Tuesday, Johnston’s emergency effort has helped 168 people move into converted hotel rooms, apartments or other forms of shelter and housing options.Keeler: Show Prime the money!
