AN IDEA IS BEING PROPOSED THAT COULD BE A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO ALBUQUERQUE’S TENT CITIES … AND ITS HOMELESS POPULATION. STEVE KRAMER WITH ALBUQUERQUE JUSTICE WANTS THE CITY TO SET UP A COMMUNITY FOR TRANSIENTS THAT WOULD BE SELF-GOVERNING AND SELF-SUFFICIENT. HE TELLS KOB-TV HE’S PROPOSED WHAT HE CALLS A SANCTIONED “TENT CITY.”
HOMELESS CAMPERS HAVE BEEN EVICTED FROM ALL FOUR SITES WHERE THEY SET UP THEIR TENTS … STARTING WITH THE LOCATION NEAR 1ST AND IRON AND ENDING WITH THE LOMAS AND I-25 SITE. THEY HAVE UNTIL TOMORROW (FRI) TO BE OFF THAT STATE-OWNED PROPERTY.
