11. KRAEMER PLACE HOMELESS SHELTER Agenda Homeless Shelter: Right Idea, Right Time, Wrong Place 1)If the County were to obey the law, what should we be seeing? 2)What the County’s own report prescribes 3)What the County has done/not done 4)Available alternatives 5)Is this a Good Expenditure of Public Funds? 6)Other Regulatory Considerations

12. KRAEMER HOMELESS SHELTER If the County were to obey the law, what should we be seeing? Consideration of alternatives Analysis of environmental and community impacts Assurance of homeless and community safety Public comments and responses Project mitigation factors

13. KRAEMER HOMELESS SHELTER What the County’s own report prescribes :  “In particular, there are significant efforts to connect homeless serving programs and services to larger mainstream resources and coordinate in an integrated response in order to link with the maximum number of resources in a community.”  “Commission to End Homelessness Policy Recommendations... Co-locate and/or have access to multi-service or ‘day’ center to provide critical services needed by clients” Source: Year-Round Emergency Shelter and Multi-Service Center (Dec. 10, 2013)

14. Right Idea, Right Time, Wrong Place Proposed Shelter Site High Concentration of Homeless Distance Apart Approx 8 miles

15. KRAEMER HOMELESS SHELTER What the County has done/not done  No Public Discussion  No consideration of alternatives  No CEQA review  No development of mitigation measures  No assurance of homeless or community safety  No use of existing County properties; no co-location with other community services  Homeless would be “warehoused” many miles from their current location and many miles from existing community resources

20. Is this a good use of public funds?  Estimated 10,000+ homeless in Orange County  200 bed planned facility represents assistance to 2% of homeless  1000 North Kraemer purchase: $4.25 Million  Estimated retrofit for use as shelter: $2.25 Million  Total estimated cost of 1000 N. Kraemer as shelter: $6.5 Million  $6.5 Million to serve 2% of homeless population  If County were to proceed on this course, it would cost $300 Million to establish shelters for the homeless population in Orange County  This does not include ongoing operation and maintenance costs  Is the County prepared to do this? Is there another way to approach the need?

21. Other Regulatory Considerations South Coast Air Quality Management District Recommends no new residential development within 500 feet of a freeway carrying 100,000 or more vehicles per day* 91 Freeway at Kraemer carries more than 225,000 vehicles per day 1000 N. Kraemer Place within 200 feet of 91 Freeway and immediately adjacent to Kraemer freeway on ramp  Rather than prioritizing treatment of the homeless, the County is proposing to disregard stated human health risks and “warehouse” the homeless at 1000 N.
