as a person who has lived across the street from a homeless shelter I find myself distinctly qualified to say that I
wouldn't mind one bit if more homeless shelters were built in Draper.
I applaud the move of the Stake President who just reorganized the ward boundaries in our stake. One ward was predominately made up of apartments and a trailer park. He split the boundaries so that each of the more established wards took either more apartments or trailer homes into their boundaries. Assimilating these people into more established wards will produce miracles. A similar thing would occur if residents of a homeless shelter were properly assimilated into a strong Draper stake.

Why not get them a one-way greyhound ticket to NYC instead. Let those under-privileged do some traveling and save

Since this will never happen, I actually think Draper is a great location. Let's not pretend that a homeless shelter is

Have you ever been to San Francisco? The homeless epidemic there hasn't slowed growth. Grow up, people!

I think you overestimate the decline in property values/standard of living that a homeless shelter will cause in an

Exactly. But instead we're going to start out putting a big homeless shelter right there in place of it.

I think moving the prison is a terrible idea. The land isn't worth enough to compensate for the cost of moving the

I bought in Draper. I want homeless shelters closer to my property. You speak for yourself not for me.

what about single moms? Wouldn't we be better off putting single moms near 123rd? They would be within walking

I don't understand. People with money live in Draper because of the good sense of community and better schools. They
