Tribune reporter Taylor Anderson revealed this week that a group of state leaders has been meeting since February to come up with a plan for the people who won’t fit the criteria to stay in one of the three new shelters being built now to replace the Road Home.
Ever since former Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker and County Mayor Ben McAdams were essentially forced into facing up to the crisis by Rio Grande area property owners in the area back in 2014, community leaders have been promising not just new shelters but a different approach to homelessness.
