Maybe we can get these dregs (here in Tulsa) bus tickets to LA. Let'em know that LA has a hotel room for them. I need to forward this article to Tulsa's idiot RINO mayor. He gets all misty when he talks about our addicts living in the streets. He even went to Denver to find a solution.

Denver. That shows how stupid he is.

hotels and motels will love it...They get paid and rooms are full

The rooms will be destroyed and the property fouled - who’s going to pay for that? The City? The Mayoral Matriarch? Ain’t no way.

They are hyping this boondoggle on the local radio stations here in LA. Let me be clear, this will be an unmitigated disaster, these Hotel and Motel owners will LOSE everything when their properties are Trashed by the great unwashed. They are als0o hyping a plan to try and create “affordable housing”, this is the biggest scam that will end in massive failure I have heard.

In Los Angeles County, it takes a minimum of 1 year to get ANY permit and it costs at least $100K to get thru that process, then an additional $100-$200K to comply with said permit and secure the rest of the permits you need to build an outhouse!.

I just finished building my new house a couple months ago, I had to spend about $300K to get thru the Building Department process. Affordable housing is a big frikkin LIE and will never happen.

They’ll love it till the room damage is so extensive they have to demolish and rebuild the hotel.

Hotels and motels better get paid in advance.

Put them in barracks and let them raise their own food. Of course they won’t do that, the homeless here don’t like the shelters because they can’t get stoned.

You can leave the “rebuild” part out.

It was. In fact, 2 serial killers briefly lived there in the 80s.

I love it because some of the homeless in our city will go to LA for the free hotel rooms with Drug Dash and Uber Drinks and free wifi.
