Next week we will have another meeting with Catholic Charities regarding the Homeless Service Center they run on Morgan Street. These meetings are quarterly and are required as a condition of their use permit. It is an opportunity to for the neighborhood residents to meet the Catholic Charities Staff and discuss any concerns they may have.
Date: Wed., April 15,
Time: 6:30-8pm
Location: Family Services Center, 465 A Street
Agenda items include:
- Update on programs run by Catholic Charities.
- Lt. Navarro from the Police Department will discuss the “Safe Parking Program” launched last year by the county and adopted by the city of Santa Rosa (this is the program that allows people to sleep in their cars on residential streets).
- Frank Kasimov from the city’s Housing Department will discuss the pending purchase of the majority of the property between 6th & 7th Streets by Catholic Charities that they previously have leased from the Sisters of St. Joseph.
- After these 2 speakers, those attending will have a chance to ask questions or discuss concerns in other areas.
All residents and owners of property in the St. Rose Neighborhood are welcome and encouraged to attend.
