He evidently does not meet the criteria for housing, Christina has tried (and is still tying). The homeless shelter in Fairfield is was closed due to funding being cut, we have nothing in Vallejo other than churches. Vallejo's potential homeless shelter is a long way off. They have to demolish the existing building first and a lot more funding is needed.
2017/18 Grand Jury Findings on Homelessness in Solano County, pretty depressing report, excerpts below.
1. No significant changes in the number of permanent, emergency, and transitional beds have been made available since the 2008.
2.There is no County operated permanent homeless shelter or drop-in center in Solano County.
3. There are no publicly funded residential drug and alcohol treatment centers in Solano County operated by the County.
4. There are no County operated and funded board and care homes for elderly, physically impaired or patients with mental health issues in Solano County.
All cities in Solano County need to understand the real cost of homelessness and how it impacts
services, safety, loss of retail revenue, damage to the infrastructure in their cities, etc.

Yeah, and it's Christmas too. But this is Vallejo, the city of low expectations.

Artsem, Thank you for sharing this information. Most Vallejo residents seem to believe that the majority of their tax dollars are being spent supporting the homeless population here, when nothing could be further from the truth. Certain groups habitually blame poor and indigent ppl for their every woe. While being totally oblivious to who’s literally picking their pockets.

Isn't this what the mayor was talking about last week when he complained about the winter warming centers were too few, too late, and below promised capacity. When even the Mayor is publicly complaining, I guess its time for a real change in Vallejo's over-payed, under-performing city management.

Good idea if only there was no red tape involved for the property owners
After red tape there would be legal-liabilitie issues building permit fees and on and on

Pretty sure the neighborhood would not want a halfway house. Would you want it next to you? One word, liability.
“If the owner really cared”...? Or if you cared, maybe a room is available at your place? Why aren’t we all taking in the homeless, disadvantaged or elderly? Because it’s bad enough trying to find a responsible renter that respects their home or apartment. Solano County needs housing and services for the homeless to be restored.

Excellent points thank you Artsem

The only concerning factor with this guy is that even if there was a shelter or place offered to him, he would most likely refuse it.
He has a history of refusing services offered to him.
I don’t know the solution here.

I understand that there is no shelters in Vallejo and no such services in place to resolve these issues, but we don’t have time to wait.
We need shelters and services now, not “later on down the road”.
We need to get these folks off the street and into some sort of housing.
This is not healthy for him or is.

Indeed Jw. I totally agree.

"Have they no refuge or resource?" cried Scrooge. "Are there no prisons?" said the Spirit, turning on him for the last time with his own words. "Are there no workhouses?"

Excellent selection Theo, although I’m sure that it’s irony will be lost and resinterpreted by the Alex Jones/Rush Limbaugh crowd.

Surely there can be a better way -- than the 19th century workhouse or the 21st century jail house -- for those who have proven themselves incapable of caring for themselves, to be taken into the care of society, provide clean, safe housing, food, social and medical therapy, and - yes - productive work.

Code Enforcement Division assigned this issue to Christina E., Community Services Section (CSS)

Thank you for reporting! The Police Department's Community Service Section (CSS) has opened a case for this issue. CSS has one part-time and three full-time employees who are responsible for addressing all quality of life concerns, supporting Neighborhood Watch groups, and working with the Neighborhood Law Program and Code Enforcement to address distressed and dangerous properties. We work hard to investigate each report in a timely manner, and will investigate this report as soon as we possibly can. Please keep in mind there is a lengthy process to remove illegal encampments. If you have any questions, please call our office at (707) 553-7218.

If you witness any suspicious or criminal activity that requires an immediate response, please call 9-1-1.

Could we please find a solution for this man? Please no more generous answers.

From my visit with CSS:
He has been offered services, he refuses.
He has been evaluated, and does not meet the criteria to “commit” him, or provide him permanent housing.
I can remember how many times he has been arrested, plenty though. They can’t hold him.

I’m sure Christina is still trying to get him help and off our streets. His end will likely be something tragic.

If anything, he needs to be removed for his own safety.
He exhibits aggressive, mentally unstable and offensive behavior on a daily basis that could invite trouble his way.

Surely it's coincidental that the standard response of the authorities - "we're powerless to do anything" - is also the cheapest!

He was arrested and removed from the bus stop today.

Thanks for fixing this request!

CLOSED... Really?
