Kevin,
Asbury Park already houses many homeless people.
The housing authority provides homes through federal housing and the
old section 8 program. Close to 900 households. Some of those
people/families pay nothing because they can't. Those people ARE
homeless, if not for Asbury Park housing them.
So no, we don't need a shelter here. We do enough. That's the point
of the people that oppose the shelter. It's a question of degree -
how much is Asbury expected to do with limited resources, while others
with more resources do less?
By the way:
Asbury Park federally subsidized housing: 13%
Long Branch federally subsidized housing: 10%
If you are going to moralize with Mario, give him a call when Long
Branch passes 13%.
