Knowing the in’s and out’s of the scope and responsibilities of each entity, knowing where funds can be obtained–so that economies can be maximized–is really important. Also, I think someone running the city might benefit from a lot of experience working with state, regional and county agencies.
I’m happy to look at new ways to solve longstanding problems, but I need details.
I see a lot of fear-mongering in his communication, and I think we have enough of that. It just seems to me that someone with less than one term on the council claiming he can quickly solve problems others have worked on for decades seems ‘off’ without specifics. He makes vague claims about the high cost ‘per door’ of housing efforts, but the data behind that claim is nowhere to be found. Long term housing, work and health has to be the goal. Mahan’s website states that the unhoused must accept whatever housing they are offered, but in order to make sure people stay housed, a lot more has to go into placement than just insisting they take it.
If you are diligent and pay attention to documents already published, you can get a lot of data letting you know what’s going on.
