Seattle City Hall expanding to house homeless after 'head tax' flop

[Cannons Front]

Seattle lawmakers, after being pressured by business leaders to repeal a controversial tax meant to address the city's homeless problem, have a brand new plan -- turn City Hall's lobby into a homeless shelter.

The Seattle City Council voted unanimously Monday to approve a plan expanding the number of housing and shelter units by 25 percent. That includes an extra 100 spaces at City Hall.

What a great idea.........LOL

Maybe they should start an adopt a homeless program, where people just take them into their house to live......

The immigration problem whether it is legal or not coming over in large numbers will only increase the homeless situation. This using city hall to make room for homeless people is a political stunt for the next election.

I suspect this. I think they're talking about jailing them.

Seattle used to be a really cool city. Now it's a mess. Vagrants are taking over. It's almost to the point where they can camp in your yard.
