Shelter
Answers
Call
C ontinued from f ront
few years and has grown worse in
recent months with a spike in no-
cause evictions and rent increases
that have pushed long-term, oth-
erwise responsible renters out of
their homes. While the city has
been trying to build low-income
subsidized housing at a rapid rate,
there has been a dearth of mar-
ket-place affordable rentals for the
working poor and middle-class –
or people who would otherwise
would not qualify for government
subsidized “affordable housing.”
Scores of residents gave even
more visibility to the issues on
Friday when they met for a rally
at Portland City Hall, only blocks
from the new temporary men’s
shelter, later marching into the
streets to protest needless rent-
hikes and demand a moratorium
on no-cause evictions, which
many feel unfairly target the el-
derly, people of color, and families
with children.
Margot Black of the Portland
Tenants Union said the new shel-
ter was wonderful for the 100
people it will keep warm and safe
at night, but said more needed to
be done to prevent homelessness
in the irst place. “We don’t want
to minimize the importance of
shelters and emergency housing
or seem ungrateful,” Black said.
“But we have to think of shelters
as a root canal and rent control
and regulating evictions and rent-
hikes as preventative care. “
While many can agree they
would like to see reasonable mar-
ket-rate apartments for average
working class people and fami-
lies, the new shelter is considered
a boon to the community, at least
while it lasts. The space is expect-
ed to be open for at least three to
six months, possibly longer, de-
pending on how the building’s
eventual sale goes and how quick-
ly it is transferred to new owners.
Those precious few months could
be crucial during winter and early
spring when Portland weather is at
its coldest and wettest.
“That will get us through win-
ter, which is a critical time for the
homeless,” says Saltzman of the
shelter’s projected run. He also
urged other business and property
owners to consider supporting the
community in similar ways. “This
is an excellent example of the
city and the business community
working together, and I hope we
can do more of it,” says Saltzman.
“If anyone else has a building we
can use, we would be glad to hear
from them.”
