Pastor Has Plan For Evicted Transients

In her story about the eviction of transients from camp in woods behind Target, SReporter Becky Kramer posts about plans by Pastor Gar Mickelson of Kaleidoscope Community Services to house homeless temporarily at airport industrial park: "Volunteers from local churches will arrive with pickups and trailers early Wednesday to help people move out of the camp. By that time, Mickelson hopes to have permission from the Hayden City Council to provide temporary housing for about 20 people at an industrial park within the city limits. '“We have a piece of land and a willing property owner to get us through the winter,' he said. The site has room for storage and dog kennels. But city permits would be required." Full story here.

Question: Would you like to see the Hayden City Council OK this proposal tonight?
