It's because there is a whole system of bs jobs managing the homeless because our capitalist conservative culture doesn't want to guarantee free housing for all
If the 65 tiny homes took $5,5 Million, that's over $80K each. Home Depot sells kits for $16K,that look a lot more luxurious. Then there are 20 foot containers, which could be fitted out.
I know where we could put housing for the homeless GOLF COURSES! just what we need plenty of good land in nice neighborhoods that's currently being devoted to a mindless meaningless activity engaged in by primarily white well-to-do businessman males who use the game to get together to make deals to carve this country up a little bit finer amongst themselves..

Well, it will apart and taken over by gangs & criminals to sell more drugs & create more "homeless". So our government can give more money to their buddies at the "non-profit" organizations, the homeless-industrial complex, to "fix/create" the problem. 🤪
In stead of critizing let's just see how productive it could be...at least it's a start....There I s a lot the government, state,county can do for our homeless...
I built a tool shed about that size and it only cost me around $800, Adding a couple windows, an A/C ,light fixtures, insulation, a bed and electrical equipment, I don't see a home that size costing more than $3000 to $4000.
I think a lot of the money is in the counseling salaries, food, etc. Many years ago there were mental institutions but they all got closed down. These people definitely need more than just physical care. Many people and families are being priced out of a normal lifestyle. My husband, when he was 27, got $2.25 an hour (which was minimum wage at the time) as a gardener at a church. But his share of the rent was $62. So in 27 hours of work (our of 160 hours a month), he was able to have an apartment. (His roommate also paid $62.) Now the rents are so high, it is hard for some people to live. We are blessed now to own our home 100% in our middle 70s.
I think they contain electricity and other utilities perhaps? Also, I think they are incorporating the bathroom facilities and showers…?? Also, these homes look like they are made from shipping containers, which are actually not so cheap after all. But I saw another comment about Home Depot having a kit for less. I don’t know.
What costs so much money is "infrastructure" even for tiny homes, it's not the structure/shelter itself. It's the... ...sewer ...plumbing ...safe electrical wiring ...heating Lastly is the structure itself. Then you have maintenance, security, services.
Ikea?! The homeless are living better than us now. Glad for them though. EVERYONE deserves a shower, bed and a small space, and a living wage, no? The problem is slumlords, greedy developers, corruption. It kind of looks like a storage facility where you rent space to put stuff, but I'm sure a couple of plants may help and each tennant can make it their own. Good job.
I read an article that said it was cheaper for the government to do this than to have homeless people constantly getting arrested and going to the emergency room for $1500.00 a visit. Hopefully they stabilize and get on their feet and get a job and apartment
They’re actually trying to help homeless. Good job. Homelessness can happen to anyone trust me. I was a computer programmer got laid off and lost my house. I just hope they prioritize American citizens over the illegal immigrants.

No, in California is 75 percent of the money allocated to the homeless ends up in the democrats pockets. You leftists are 😜. You are being robbed left and right by the democrats and you still support them. Thank god for fentanyl and the covid shot. What a waste of air you all are.
Not sure how this will help but, I can imagine mentally ill homeless people will destroy them and hoarders will have a heyday with these homes. I really hope that this is a viable solution that works.

It is kind of funny you see these stories but I have looked and never see a story on how successful these projects that cost millions of dollars actually are.

A journalist should investigate why the city spend so much money in this tiny homes, when they don’t cost that much. I can guarantee you that it wasn’t on this particular project 😒🤷🏻♀️ The tiny homes look terrible!

Not cool at all. Free anything, will never work. If you have nothing invested in what you get, it is worthless to you. These houses will be on fire, drug houses, and worthless in 5 months. FREE, never works!
Agree with that - the statements about adding a bunk and roommates are very disturbing. I hope they meant for families or voluntary roommates. It wasn't clear from what the reporter was saying
This won't go well. Each tiny home should have a honey do list certain days to do laundry police the area of trash, everyday clean inside. Good rules make good habits , no rules make bad habits
@@NoName-dn8nv so you don't think conditions will be placed upon the residents allowed to live in these little houses so it will be allowed to become basically a homeless drug den no different than tents on the sidewalk ??? Surly your not THAT stupid.
Every housing option has, no drugs, no alcohol, no animals. You just opted out 95% of the homeless. The non profit is making money on wages. It does not go to the homeless.
Will be interesting to see how this is maintained and how the people behave. Hopefully all for the better and not be a camp for people that come here illegally.
IT WILL BE!!! They will have dragon rides for the children and magical faeries will create free meals for everyone.... It will be exactly what anyone with a brain knows it will be, a place of drugs and crime.
Homelessness in California is more attractive than working or being productive. When they stop encouraging homelessness and start making it more difficult to ask for handouts thing will improve.
I like that they are helping the ***homeless*** category of people who are truly trying to do better and are clean. There are many drug addicted people out there committing crimes to serve their daily drug habit and they are considered a different category of homeless - I wouldn't feel comfortable knowing these homes were going to them because most of them(the drug intakers) do not want to change and they would turn this into an upside drug facility. Send the homeless category of people who are drug addicts to facilities where they can be helped, and send the mentally ill homeless people to institutions where they can be helped. The 3 categories of homeless people should not be lumped into one category AND ALL OF THEM need to be off the streets.
They're made of fiberglass panels with the same insulation as RVs. Each unit has an air conditioner with heat pump. What takes up the most money is the proprietary foundation from the manufacturer, which is designed for any landscape to "reduce" reliance on concrete, which is bull because as you can see from the video the cities found it cheaper to use wood pallets and concrete foundations.
She is right. Look at the nightmare videos from other cities showing their result on the tiny home concept because they didn’t have a support system set up. Too bad we can’t do what Norway did. Unfortunately that would leave the representation of those getting rich from homeless programs powerless.
I'm glad for the little discussion at then end of the video. There are a lot of realities this solution does not address. It is a "next step" for some.
@@kenW13 well you better get to work then. You think you can just lay inside a tiny home for free? You’re a big boy, you have arms and legs. If you don’t work, illegals will do it for you
Right on! This is very cheering news. God bless the people down on their luck that get this help. It will totally help them turn their lives around. This is how a society should function. We are a great nation and we can help Americans live dignified lives despite the lack of financial success in a hard world.
For people who have been living on the street, in tents or without even a tent, where they are told to move constantly, have no bathroom access, etc. this is a step up that helps them and helps the people who do not want tents in front of their businesses or their city streets. It's bare minimum. A tent-like space with a single bed, looks like they do have ventilation, an on site bathrooms and showers and food. And social services for each person in the small home village. The conversation between the newscasters is surprisingly real and reasonable.
If Chula Vista has a barrio, I’d bet dollars to doughnuts that is where this was sited. Politicians are committing modern day redlining (systemic racism and corruption) in how they decide where to put these. It’s almost always a low income neighborhood, most of which are predominantly black or brown neighborhoods. southeast Asians and poor white folks catch it too.
The City of Oakland did this for their homeless in East Oakland. And sure enough... within a few short weeks they *"turned it into the place they came from"* - a FILTHY, DANGEROUS street. Now, on top of that, with most of these homeless having some sort of mental issues, WHY might there be a MOTHER and a CHILD in one of these units DO they ever THINK?
That’s a game changer for those who truly need a fresh start and want to utilize the chance to create a better lifestyle. Two years of hard work and they’ll be able to provide for themselves. A place to rest eat and shower is essential. Finding a job and educating ones self is the next step. Save and conserve and have patience while focusing on the big picture. God bless.
$5.5 million for 65 tiny homes. Who got rich? I could build one of those for less than $2k in materials and $1k in labor. So where’s the other $77k+ going on this.
after being homeless someone needs to recover and relearn managing their space, it's a start to a new life, there's alot of moving parts, budget, cleaning, food, neighbours. Best of luck to the residents, wishing you all a better future
Thats pretty fucked up someone who dont pay rent can have a roomate with 50 sqft, but me trying to pay rent cant have my family of 4 in a 1 bedroom 650sqft
@@max420thc do you rather it happen in your front yard or on the streets. Wow at least Americans are being help as well as the communities. They are not criminals. They are people who possible fell on hard luck. It could be you or your children have a heart. At least they are not laying on the side walk or parks where children play. ❗
There is such a stereotype against homeless people. Madonna was homeless once. So was Jewel. I’ve met plenty of homeless people, homeless people who lost their livelihood after their wife died from cancer, or the market crashed, or their parents died, or they were running from an abuser, or lost their job. Mot all are drug addicts. We have a very broken system and we need to move from apathy to at least sympathy (if not empathy). No one is exclusively immured to being homeless. Not even the richest person. I’d be willing to spend my tax dollars on helping people get off the streets and receive drug testing, social services, job development, and free education versus funding bio weapons, abortions, or war, which is where a lot of our tax dollars are going anyway. Just sayin’
The problem is that rent is too high. In my state, a 1bed, 1bath is minimum $2000/month. Meaning you must earn $6000 per month, $72,000 per year AFTER TAXES to afford a single bedroom and bathroom! Most Americans earn less than $50,000! People want privacy, they want dignity, and they want the opportunitt to live in a safe place to raise a family.
NO kitchen No bath No plumbing... These are NOT tiny homes, these are backyard sheds or Pallet homes 🙄 Misleading. But they're great for the homeless people 😐👏
The bathrooms are one-person lockable full bathroom buildings which are located seperate from the living quarters. Some of the pallet homes actually CAN have their own bathrooms, but cities found communal bathrooms to be economical.
@@libramoon9968 I was being facetious, but knowing how government works and how every last vendor involved will charge 10 times what they would charge a regular customer...a pre-fab shed kit that would cost $1000 at Home Depot or Lowe's will cost the taxpayer 10 x that. Toss in the electrical service panel, air conditioner, IKEA Beds, shelf table, bedding, lighting, windows, etc. and labor costs, I wouldn't be surprised of each shed comes in at about $40K each. Times 56 tiny homes, was it? 2.2 Million. That doesn't even account for the shower, toilets, laundry, and on-site counseling services. Tack on another $100K for those and the salaries of, say, 5 counselors on-site. Conservative estimates say 2.7 million over a year. Divided by 56 residents comes to around $48,200 each. Well...I guess that's cheaper than a suite at a 5-Star downtown hotel. Those, by the way, are being reserved for the Illegals. The stupid Americans get to stay in the cramped toolsheds. AMERICA LAST!!
Right? It's a start and in an area they are allowed to be, with bathrooms and showers which are a big issue for the unhoused. So fingers crossed it is successful enough to expand.
Terrible! Putting people that close together is just asking for trouble. Is it better than being homeless? From a reasonable person's point of view, yes. From the perspective of a person who is suffering from mental illness/drug dependency, not so much. For the "it's better than nothing" crowd, we really should have more options.
Great idea in many ways. Here are the issues of cost. Places will have to have security, and bug management, and utilities, and people to check housekeeping, and maintenance employees to clear trash, debris etc. Some rules have to apply. In the end, you end up with crazy costs, for what seems to be a great solution for the homeless.
@@inthesunbythebeach Not usually a great success. Once you have a address you can get Medical for free. I worked for Hud for 33 years and have to pay 150 for an emergency room visit. They will pay nothing. Where can they get a job with those type of benefits with mental issues? No where for most of them. Plus it enables them as well Seems like a great idea on the surface. Housing budget now is 5 Billion a year and climbing.
This place will be a total disaster and fail in one year. I guarantee the news media will know this and ignore for sure.The city has tried same thing with hotel rooms and they destroy them and hotels have to kick out and Remodel entire room.
Yeay! Tiny homes! You’re going to have to keep the homeless from hoarding and ruining it. I was homeless, and I camped FAAAR away from other homeless because they collected garbage and pooped all around. I was in stealth mode and I am wicked clean! I got housed through HUD/ VA s.ustainable H.ousing through the VA in Providence RI.
I was homeless for about a year in San Diego just over 30 years ago. I stayed in my car then stayed at St. Vincent De Paul. I would have been stoked! St. Paul was sketchy but better than living in my car. I received much needed medical care and later they helped me obtain an apartment. Just hope they don't grow too comfortable and that this doesn't create an unsafe environment.
❤I love this. Sanitary and safety in place. This is wonderful for the community. Homelessness breeds mental health issues which becomes a threat to the community. Thank you Chula Vista😊
They look like prison rooms...so much money is clearly not wisely spent... no way that the mayor could live there for a month. What this is is a way to take the available money for housing and make a maximum profit for those that should not profit from other' s misfortune.
That's not really fair. What we've actually done is wreck education so we force people to learn trivia but don't teach people to care for themselves and others, then we wreck the economy so the wealthy, well-connected can use cheap debt to drive up prices on homes, stocks and consumer goods which dumb miseducated plebes will buy with expensive debt, and then when people struggle with their mental and physical health and relationships, we'll treat them like actual garbage waste, and after hundreds of bailouts for the well-connected cronies, we'll get some clever politicians who will take working people's money (taxes) to charge an outrageous amount to not solve the actual underlying problem. Great work. Everyone loses except for the government criminals and their cronies.
There is one of these Tiny Home Camps in Fayetteville Ar. and I think its a Good Thing rather see my TAX Dollars going to HELP People than the Money Lining the Pockets of a LIEING POLTICIAN...
How is this more cost effective than a shelter? Are there any rules? Will there be drug and rehabilitation programs? Is there a work requirement? 80K for a tiny shed? Taxpayers are getting fleeced again!
A shelter does not have privacy and people are not allowed dignity due to rules. Shelters often kick everyone out in the morning (to clean) and dont allow people to return until evening. Families cannot stay in shelters and people are not allowed pets. Pets are often the only family homeless people have and it is not right to take their only family away. The company behind the Pallet homes requires each development be overlooked by local homeless support groups. Not sure where the price came from and I think each development has different requirements.
I am all for it if there's proper screening process, and proof of homeless people either going through a recovery mental health program, addiction recovery program, or attempting to get a job. Rules needs to be applied, mainly, I agree with other comments...American citizens first.
this is great to see people salving the homelessness issues so Proud of you Calf if every state would do this it would make a difference wounderfull Idea
Why do these sheds cost $80K each? Let’s see their expense reports. Someone got overpaid.
A 50 room hotel or apt building in that area would cost 5 ish million, easy.
Plumbing and electrics, insulation, concrete pad, community facilities...the buildings are not just little sheds.
75 percent of the cost goes to the democrat administrators , I’m not even joking.
How much does a new RV cost 🤡? Your being ripped off by the democrat again and to ignorant to understand it , Stockholm syndrome

I AM DISABLED HOMELESS $900 NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL, LIVING IN MY CAR 64 YRS OLD I PAY 1/2 $450 TO HAVE PEACE N DYING IN PEACE 9 SURGERY'S WAITING 2 1/2 WAITING FOR HEART SURGERY WHERE WOULD I GO AFTER SURGERY? MY CAR? IF I MAKE IT.I PRAYING DON'T GET MAD AT GOD ANYMORE
The fact that another person has access to the Room mate's belongings invites theft. Future trouble awaits.
That's pretty cool, I hope it spreads. But a _forced_ roommate in a small space like that, sounds like a volatile situation.
Not cool at all. Free anything, will never work. If you have nothing invested in what you get, it is worthless to you. These houses will be on fire, drug houses, and worthless in 5 months. FREE, never works!
Agree with that - the statements about adding a bunk and roommates are very disturbing. I hope they meant for families or voluntary roommates. It wasn't clear from what the reporter was saying
You should have covered the expense. Why so expensive per tiny house? I'm glad the city is trying.
I’m just happy people who need a place will now have 1
This won't go well. Each tiny home should have a honey do list certain days to do laundry police the area of trash, everyday clean inside. Good rules make good habits , no rules make bad habits
And how are you going to prevent it from becoming a Drug Den
Drugs are included, duh
@@NoName-dn8nv so you don't think conditions will be placed upon the residents allowed to live in these little houses so it will be allowed to become basically a homeless drug den no different than tents on the sidewalk ??? Surly your not THAT stupid.
Every housing option has, no drugs, no alcohol, no animals. You just opted out 95% of the homeless. The non profit is making money on wages. It does not go to the homeless.
Will be interesting to see how this is maintained and how the people behave. Hopefully all for the better and not be a camp for people that come here illegally.
Want to know if they can behave and stay clean and not trash these tiny homes!
IT WILL BE!!! They will have dragon rides for the children and magical faeries will create free meals for everyone....
It will be exactly what anyone with a brain knows it will be, a place of drugs and crime.
Homelessness in California is more attractive than working or being productive. When they stop encouraging homelessness and start making it more difficult to ask for handouts thing will improve.
I like that they are helping the ***homeless*** category of people who are truly trying to do better and are clean. There are many drug addicted people out there committing crimes to serve their daily drug habit and they are considered a different category of homeless - I wouldn't feel comfortable knowing these homes were going to them because most of them(the drug intakers) do not want to change and they would turn this into an upside drug facility. Send the homeless category of people who are drug addicts to facilities where they can be helped, and send the mentally ill homeless people to institutions where they can be helped. The 3 categories of homeless people should not be lumped into one category AND ALL OF THEM need to be off the streets.
I agree with you absolutely 100%! They should NOT clump all homeless people from different categories together!
Looks like cardboard huts? $80K each. What a rip-off.
They're made of fiberglass panels with the same insulation as RVs. Each unit has an air conditioner with heat pump. What takes up the most money is the proprietary foundation from the manufacturer, which is designed for any landscape to "reduce" reliance on concrete, which is bull because as you can see from the video the cities found it cheaper to use wood pallets and concrete foundations.
She is right. Look at the nightmare videos from other cities showing their result on the tiny home concept because they didn’t have a support system set up. Too bad we can’t do what Norway did. Unfortunately that would leave the representation of those getting rich from homeless programs powerless.
I'm glad for the little discussion at then end of the video. There are a lot of realities this solution does not address. It is a "next step" for some.
Same problems, just out of sight and out of mind. I do have great respect for the few who are willing to try and help.
Theyll be booted out for illegal immigrants.
So sad. I hope not but it is super likely.
@@kenW13 well you better get to work then. You think you can just lay inside a tiny home for free? You’re a big boy, you have arms and legs. If you don’t work, illegals will do it for you
Probable
For sure
Right on! This is very cheering news. God bless the people down on their luck that get this help. It will totally help them turn their lives around. This is how a society should function. We are a great nation and we can help Americans live dignified lives despite the lack of financial success in a hard world.
Those tiny houses are for migrants , 😂 god you people believe anything the government controlled media feeds you.
😂😂😂
@@Fedgery007 wtf does this mean? You mock the poor and broken-hearted? There is a special place in hell for people like you.
For people who have been living on the street, in tents or without even a tent, where they are told to move constantly, have no bathroom access, etc. this is a step up that helps them and helps the people who do not want tents in front of their businesses or their city streets. It's bare minimum. A tent-like space with a single bed, looks like they do have ventilation, an on site bathrooms and showers and food. And social services for each person in the small home village. The conversation between the newscasters is surprisingly real and reasonable.
If Chula Vista has a barrio, I’d bet dollars to doughnuts that is where this was sited. Politicians are committing modern day redlining (systemic racism and corruption) in how they decide where to put these. It’s almost always a low income neighborhood, most of which are predominantly black or brown neighborhoods. southeast Asians and poor white folks catch it too.
To God be the glory
They should only cost around $8000.00 a piece honestly for all that's included.
Actually even less considering the furniture is not included in that price!
The City of Oakland did this for their homeless in East Oakland. And sure enough... within a few short weeks
they *"turned it into the place they came from"* - a FILTHY, DANGEROUS street. Now, on top of that, with
most of these homeless having some sort of mental issues, WHY might there be a MOTHER and a CHILD in
one of these units DO they ever THINK?
Well damn. I applaud them for trying bc it’s ridiculous nowadays
Your right, this never works well.
They also spent over 100k for each shed.
@@wanaraz Wow, that is a ton for those little houses...lol
Since you seem to think it's destined to fail b4 it's even opened, any ideas on how you'd run the facility to achieve peak efficiency?
Those 2 anchors must not like each other lol
That’s a game changer for those who truly need a fresh start and want to utilize the chance to create a better lifestyle. Two years of hard work and they’ll be able to provide for themselves. A place to rest eat and shower is essential. Finding a job and educating ones self is the next step. Save and conserve and have patience while focusing on the big picture. God bless.
"You might have a roommate at some point" inside that shed built for one person?
$5.5 million for 65 tiny homes. Who got rich? I could build one of those for less than $2k in materials and $1k in labor. So where’s the other $77k+ going on this.
A camper or trailer is way cheaper. You are right.
IS THIS AN SNL SKIT?
The 2 Newscasters really crapped all over the idea of those Tiny Homes at the end with their looks of contempt and condescension
They are reasonably concerned because they care about tax payers.
lol.
after being homeless someone needs to recover and relearn managing their space, it's a start to a new life, there's alot of moving parts, budget, cleaning, food, neighbours. Best of luck to the residents, wishing you all a better future
Excellent comment! I was thinking about those things too! Hopefully adequate resources will be provided to address all the "moving parts"
Thats pretty fucked up someone who dont pay rent can have a roomate with 50 sqft, but me trying to pay rent cant have my family of 4 in a 1 bedroom 650sqft
This needs to be happening all over our country
It needs to happen in your backyard
Yeah cramming us into coffin sized homes while they import 100 million new immigrants and tell us there's not enough space.
@@max420thc do you rather it happen in your front yard or on the streets. Wow at least Americans are being help as well as the communities. They are not criminals. They are people who possible fell on hard luck. It could be you or your children have a heart. At least they are not laying on the side walk or parks where children play. ❗
Really? Most homeless people are drug addicts who brought it upon themselves. Why should my tax dollars go to support their addiction.
they will be trashed in a year
I’d gladly help pay for this if it’ll take them off the streets
There is such a stereotype against homeless people. Madonna was homeless once. So was Jewel. I’ve met plenty of homeless people, homeless people who lost their livelihood after their wife died from cancer, or the market crashed, or their parents died, or they were running from an abuser, or lost their job. Mot all are drug addicts. We have a very broken system and we need to move from apathy to at least sympathy (if not empathy). No one is exclusively immured to being homeless. Not even the richest person.
I’d be willing to spend my tax dollars on helping people get off the streets and receive drug testing, social services, job development, and free education versus funding bio weapons, abortions, or war, which is where a lot of our tax dollars are going anyway. Just sayin’
The problem is that rent is too high. In my state, a 1bed, 1bath is minimum $2000/month. Meaning you must earn $6000 per month, $72,000 per year AFTER TAXES to afford a single bedroom and bathroom! Most Americans earn less than $50,000! People want privacy, they want dignity, and they want the opportunitt to live in a safe place to raise a family.
NO kitchen No bath No plumbing... These are NOT tiny homes, these are backyard sheds or Pallet homes 🙄 Misleading. But they're great for the homeless people 😐👏
The bathrooms are one-person lockable full bathroom buildings which are located seperate from the living quarters. Some of the pallet homes actually CAN have their own bathrooms, but cities found communal bathrooms to be economical.
. *THANKS FOR STEPPING UP, IKEA !!!* 1:16 /
. *CHULA VISTA: $80k FOR EACH TINY HOME !!!*
The poor blonde. She’s so despondent lol: can relate. The issue is insane.
And they only cost 1.3 million each to produce.
Say what !?!?!?
Waste of money one year from now and will all be destroyed.
@@libramoon9968 I was being facetious, but knowing how government works and how every last vendor involved will charge 10 times what they would charge a regular customer...a pre-fab shed kit that would cost $1000 at Home Depot or Lowe's will cost the taxpayer 10 x that. Toss in the electrical service panel, air conditioner, IKEA Beds, shelf table, bedding, lighting, windows, etc. and labor costs, I wouldn't be surprised of each shed comes in at about $40K each. Times 56 tiny homes, was it? 2.2 Million. That doesn't even account for the shower, toilets, laundry, and on-site counseling services. Tack on another $100K for those and the salaries of, say, 5 counselors on-site. Conservative estimates say 2.7 million over a year. Divided by 56 residents comes to around $48,200 each. Well...I guess that's cheaper than a suite at a 5-Star downtown hotel. Those, by the way, are being reserved for the Illegals. The stupid Americans get to stay in the cramped toolsheds. AMERICA LAST!!
How many supporters of politicians that made this happen received money.
That tiny homes looks better than tents…
Right? It's a start and in an area they are allowed to be, with bathrooms and showers which are a big issue for the unhoused. So fingers crossed it is successful enough to expand.
This reporter should not be on the air
I hope its for AMERCANS NOT THE FREELOADERS THAT GET TREATED BETTER THAN AMERICANS IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AMERICANS!
Terrible! Putting people that close together is just asking for trouble. Is it better than being homeless? From a reasonable person's point of view, yes. From the perspective of a person who is suffering from mental illness/drug dependency, not so much. For the "it's better than nothing" crowd, we really should have more options.
These houses are not for drug addicts, they are for sober working people who need a place to stay until they have a place to live.
🤣Whoa!🤣 This clip would’ve almost made it to the list of “Live News Freakouts” if him outside would’ve elevated his near tantrum🤣
Now all they have left to do is fence it all off with razor wire and call it a day, I guess.
Drugs & fires
Very nice; I've stayed in far less nice places in the army.
Raleigh Same here in USMC, thx for mentioning that. When I saw 'em I thought of a military base somewhere & lmfao. Semper Fi 🇺🇸
You mean you were PAID to stay in less comfortable places in the army and you STILL reap the benefits of doing so.
The guy was very rough and loud!!
I wish they were nicer but they are temporary so I guess it’s fine but, they are reminiscent of some Dystopian Novels I’ve read.❤️
Great idea in many ways. Here are the issues of cost. Places will have to have security, and bug management, and utilities, and people to check housekeeping, and maintenance employees to clear trash, debris etc. Some rules have to apply. In the end, you end up with crazy costs, for what seems to be a great solution for the homeless.
If it help people get back on their feet and perhaps get a job and they pay taxes, it is worth it.
@@inthesunbythebeach Not usually a great success. Once you have a address you can get Medical for free. I worked for Hud for 33 years and have to pay 150 for an emergency room visit. They will pay nothing. Where can they get a job with those type of benefits with mental issues? No where for most of them. Plus it enables them as well
Seems like a great idea on the surface. Housing budget now is 5 Billion a year and climbing.
This place will be a total disaster and fail in one year. I guarantee the news media will know this and ignore for sure.The city has tried same thing with hotel rooms and they destroy them and hotels have to kick out and Remodel entire room.
Yeay! Tiny homes! You’re going to have to keep the homeless from hoarding and ruining it. I was homeless, and I camped FAAAR away from other homeless because they collected garbage and pooped all around. I was in stealth mode and I am wicked clean! I got housed through HUD/ VA s.ustainable H.ousing through the VA in Providence RI.
This will be very interesting to observe, I would also be observing the local pawnshops and junk yards.
Why?
We need more of these tiny villages all over the US.
Nothing is government funded....it's all taxpayer funded....I don't owe anyone a free place to live...
Good job Chula Vista! This is more than one can ask for. Everything one needs. Shelter food clothing job any job and be appreciative for everything .
80,000 each unit. Follow the money fleecing the payers
I wonder how long it will be before a drug dealer is setup living here supplying the "neighborhood"? lol!
I was homeless for about a year in San Diego just over 30 years ago. I stayed in my car then stayed at St. Vincent De Paul. I would have been stoked! St. Paul was sketchy but better than living in my car. I received much needed medical care and later they helped me obtain an apartment. Just hope they don't grow too comfortable and that this doesn't create an unsafe environment.
❤I love this. Sanitary and safety in place. This is wonderful for the community. Homelessness breeds mental health issues which becomes a threat to the community. Thank you Chula Vista😊
they sure want to help for only $85,000/ tiny home - I could build ten tiny homes better than that for less cost
The homeless and illegals should be knocking on every leftards door
Yeah it could be done cheaper. I think it's the labor.
They look like prison rooms...so much money is clearly not wisely spent... no way that the mayor could live there for a month. What this is is a way to take the available money for housing and make a maximum profit for those that should not profit from other' s misfortune.
That's not really fair.
What we've actually done is wreck education so we force people to learn trivia but don't teach people to care for themselves and others, then we wreck the economy so the wealthy, well-connected can use cheap debt to drive up prices on homes, stocks and consumer goods which dumb miseducated plebes will buy with expensive debt, and then when people struggle with their mental and physical health and relationships, we'll treat them like actual garbage waste, and after hundreds of bailouts for the well-connected cronies, we'll get some clever politicians who will take working people's money (taxes) to charge an outrageous amount to not solve the actual underlying problem.
Great work. Everyone loses except for the government criminals and their cronies.
I own an industrial building that was meant to manufacture mobile homes. 10,000 sf

Can we build 500,000,000 tiny homes for everybody in Latin America? We will need them soon.
Thank you city net for your uplifting contributions.
There is one of these Tiny Home Camps in Fayetteville Ar. and I think its a Good Thing rather see my TAX Dollars going to HELP People than the Money Lining the Pockets of a LIEING POLTICIAN...
Hay, what about Ukraine, they could use more money, can’t be wasting money on American citizens.
How is this more cost effective than a shelter? Are there any rules? Will there be drug and rehabilitation programs? Is there a work requirement? 80K for a tiny shed? Taxpayers are getting fleeced again!
A shelter does not have privacy and people are not allowed dignity due to rules. Shelters often kick everyone out in the morning (to clean) and dont allow people to return until evening. Families cannot stay in shelters and people are not allowed pets. Pets are often the only family homeless people have and it is not right to take their only family away.
The company behind the Pallet homes requires each development be overlooked by local homeless support groups.
Not sure where the price came from and I think each development has different requirements.
@@Robbie-mw5uu Um, you want privacy? Sign a lease! Taxpayers should have to pay for everyone and everything.
Uplift kasota we housing for work then, now, Forever , Together for poverty-stricken people 😂 😆 🤣
Keep going guys. Too many used to fight these but homelessness is a pandemic now and they need to be solved like this
a government allowed aka caused pandemic (Hegelian Dialectic) you must understand this to see through their issues
you'll be surprised 6 months from now when everything has been burned down..
Homelessness is ancient. And it's not always the homeless who cause their own homelessness, also it affects everyone differently.
I am all for it if there's proper screening process, and proof of homeless people either going through a recovery mental health program, addiction recovery program, or attempting to get a job. Rules needs to be applied, mainly, I agree with other comments...American citizens first.
this is great to see people salving the homelessness issues so Proud of you Calf if every state would do this it would make a difference wounderfull Idea
Very good. Thank you. God bless you all.
