I am writing regarding the proposed “Welcome Home “project to be sited on the county parking lot on the
corner of Bishop and Johnson. I agree that the homeless need housing help, however the impact of the site on
the community and environment has not been fully evaluated. There has been a lack of inclusivity and input
from the neighborhood, other than a single informational meeting to be followed by a vote on the project
approximately 3 weeks later, by the board of supervisors. There are many negative issues that are associated
with the project, which you no doubt are aware of.
The lack of transparency and inclusivity are of concern. The whole planning process such as EIR, architect
review has been subverted. I cannot support this project, as so many issues have not been fully addressed. I
would strongly urge that the County Board of Supervisors delay the vote until these issues are fully addressed
in an open forum, rather than a rubber stamp for a deal made in the back room.
Regards
Henry Lee
