The county of Santa Clara is proposing to place a tiny home site for homeless at Benton and Lawrence Expressway. There is a petition going around for people to sign that are opposed to that site being used for a homeless center. I believe 500+ have signed the petition. It’s our understanding that there will be no screening for the people that will be staying there. They’re proposing 80 to 120 units, and it will be staffed by one person who will deal with these people that will be most likely mentally ill and/or most likely addicted to drugs.
There are numerous elementary schools and daycare centers within the vicinity. There’s a parade march scheduled for March 1 at 5 o’clock before the meeting that is scheduled with the county supervisors at 6 o’clock. Location 1290 Pomeroy Avenue in Santa Clara..
