The city of Vista was requesting proposals for a low-barrier homeless shelter, but no applications were submitted.
On Wednesday, Lourdes Castro Ramirez, the co-chair of Cal ICH, visited the Vista encampment and met with city partners addressing homelessness.
“We heard today about the progress that they're making. The stories of being able to connect individuals and, also, that these dollars are helping them implement a plan that was developed in 2020, focused on bringing together teams to help unsheltered individuals,” she said. Seventy-three-year-old Jim Conley currently lives in the encampment. He told KPBS that, though he has noticed more outreach from the city, he is lost when it comes to his status on getting housing assistance. “They came up to me and asked me a couple of questions," he said."I told them the truth ... and, next thing I know, I was out of the program.”
Solis Daniels said the city had changed gears and was now looking into developing permanent supportive housing and a safe parking area.
