My address is 1838 E Coronado Rd in Phoenix and I support the Human Services Campus and their request to modify the sƟpulaƟons. I’ve been involved in advocaƟng for resources for our unsheltered community members since 2015. Two items that remain consistent over Ɵme are the increase in unsheltered people, and the HSC being subjected to aƩack and criƟcism [collinsdicƟonary.com] for fulfilling their purpose of geƫng people off the streets and connected to services. The 2019 proposal to enhance the special permit was designed to serve more people and ease the stressors on the immediate neighborhood by commiƫng to those very things that service providers and neighbors have been asking for, for years. The process of geƫng approval was arduous and the 2021 meeƟngs imposed changes to the sƟpulaƟons that were not part of the approved agreement, and which are the reason we are here today. Unsheltered homeless numbers go up every year. So far we as a community are not meeƟng the need. The idea of limiƟng shelter space already built out is wasteful to the last few years of investment. You’ve heard the staƟsƟcs. I’m asking you to keep in mind that people have no place to go. I parƟcipated in the Point In Time Count in 2020, and the pure suffering and degradaƟon I witnessed was stomach turning. Please allow the Campus to use the total of their beds unƟl there are other shelter opƟons. Thank you for your consideraƟon, Brandi Ryan‐Cabot 602‐292‐142 ATTACHMENT E
