For the first time in months, city leaders in Burien are discussing possible options for where to place a tiny home village—a potential solution for the ongoing homeless crisis. FOX13
"This isn't a snap judgment, this isn't a decision that needs to be made lightly; this is a decision that, even if made today, would still take months to complete, because that is the general process for something like this," Bailon said.
Another site is the lot on 150th St which is leased to Toyota. In his report, Bailon says with the loss of the lot, Toyota will lose one-third of its inventory, which they claim may lead to 20 to 30 jobs being lost. The closed property is still in use by the Skunkworks Robotics team composed of students between eighth and 10th grade from all over King County.
Not only is the city down a potential site, there are legal obstacles as well. Bailon made it very clear tiny homes or unsanctioned camps are not permitted in any zone in the city at the moment. "They increase death and misery," Freeman said. "They scatter people where it's even harder for those offering help to reach them. We want an end to the sweeps and a beginning to real solutions."
