This article should include the specific contact information for reporting problems. The city has become a relatively unresponsive bureaucracy; what exactly is the best way to report an issue with the shelter?
Weird, if the city can do all this why weren’t they already doing it? The Pearl has been neglected for years now as far as clean-up efforts (volunteers do that or residents pay out of pocket for NWCC, etc). We’ve been asking them to clean up the 405 area as well. Why not do all these things BEFORE they open the shelter to enter into more of a good faith agreement with the neighborhood? I think we all know why.
