No clue. I am willing to bet some of the shelters would allow them parking around their lots. There are usually places where the homeless hang out if not visiting a shelter. Here it is down by the river...there are lanes and walks down there. When I managed a shelter up in the Fort, they had a place in the woods across the highway. It depends how lenient the city by-laws are. Cops here are not too hard on them. Live and let live.But where do they park them?
According to the article, the little houses fit inside a parking space. So maybe they just actually park them.No clue.

Probably. Some streetpeople try to stick around each other for safety. If he builds many more, they can have their own little village going on lol.According to the article, the little houses fit inside a parking space. So maybe they just actually park them.
That is nice of walmart. There was a couple with a small trailer in the parking lot of The Canadian Superstore. The staff were okay with it once they discovered this couple were really trying hard to find work and get themselves a place. This couple would eat and shower at my shelter. It is nice to see business's do this for folks.I think I read somewhere that Walmart stores are "safe haven" places. People can park their cars in Wally World parking lots without fear of being towed or anything. I wonder if that would also apply to a small village of parking-space sized homes? I mean, if they move them regularly, it seems like a pretty good idea. They can go into the store to use the bathroom and have a quick spot wash in the sink, in the wee hours when there are few customers.
...she said "wee hours" about the bathroom....nyuk, nyuk, nyuk....I think I read somewhere that Walmart stores are "safe haven" places.
