SPRING VALLEY, Calif. — Some Spring Valley neighbors told ABC 10News something is coming to this empty lot on Jamacha Road just off State Route 125.In March, the County Board of Supervisors approved a plan for tiny homes for the homeless in Spring Valley on Jamacha .
$18.5 million of American Rescue Plan funding is going to be used for the homes, which will be on CalTrans' land.“I was actually outraged," David, a concerned resident, said. “I don’t want it in our neighborhood. These other residents who are friends of mine, they don’t want it either. Yes, we want to help the homeless, but this isn’t the way to do it.”
ABC 10News spoke to people who expressed concerns about the tiny home site, including the fast-moving traffic on Jamacha Road, the site's proximity to nearby homes and the proximity of schools. “There are two schools within stone’s throw distance from where they want to put place this. And I feel like there are better-suited areas and maybe some different options,” Danielle Gilmore, a concerned Spring Valley Resident, said.County Chairwoman Nora Vargas told ABC 10News in a statement,"Since taking office, I've prioritized addressing our region's homelessness issue head-on.
Her statement also said,"The number of unsheltered people in Spring Valley continues to grow, which has led to numerous inquiries from our community members seeking solutions. Increasing the availability of housing is among the key strategies being considered by San Diego County to address this issue. Currently, we are exploring various options, including transitional housing projects like those successfully implemented in Chula Vista.
