We will have our 59th Coffee with the Commissioner event this coming Wednesday, March 10th.
We will be having a discussion about homelessness, panhandling, and what steps we can take as a community and as a county to assist with this issue. I've had constituents ask about this, we have discussed it in workshops and meetings, and I have had my own two recent encounters with aggressive panhandlers purporting to be "Homeless and in Need Of Help!"
