Frey’s proposed 2026 budget defunds them, but emergency housing vouchers are funded in the 2025 budget; MPHA implemented the operational needs to get vouchers out in Q3 for resident use. It’s now Q4 & sitting in CPED. 100 vouchers could be in use right now: 50 for single residents, 50 for families.
David Brauer@dbrauer.net · 10mo agoContinues to be striking how, since Frey erected the greenway fence to Lake/Nicollet, the crowd has returned en masse to 2900 block of Blaisdell. Frey bleats “you can’t have encampments by home & businesses“ but that’s exactly where he’s pushed these folks. Meanwhile 50 housing vouchers go unfunded.
A single mom in the Duluth area is in need of community care. She is navigating challenging times & was laid off from her job. She needs funds to maintain her housing & to cover basic needs. Please consider contributing or reposting. I will update progress and share screenshots for accountability.🌻
