Unidentified speaker Hi. This is Jennifer Watts from the Coalition for the Homeless of Pasco County. Thank you for the opportunity to speak this afternoon on this issue. I will say that um on the last several years to the point in time count, most specifically this year, we are seeing hundreds of single adults out on the streets, unsheltered, unhoused. We've all seen this as a growing need in our community. I will say even going back to Youth Lane that was originally aimed to be a single shelter because we all have recognized it as a need and then we put it to a family shelter. So we can all recognize the need in our community and I think finding a location that we all agree on is going to be very difficult and I think this is a great start.
Paula Baracaldo Commission Commissioners, if we may um and if you're agreeable with this, we would like to present this uh policy to you during the next upcoming homelessness workshop. Uh that way we can have an opportunity to discuss this.
