MATT DRISCOLL: EXIT 133 STUDY SESSION UPDATE >>>

Today the City Council is discussing what to do about organizations that serve Tacoma’s homeless population that failed to make the grade when the Human Services Commission reviewed and made recommendations about the disbursement of federal block grant money â€" specifically the MLKHDA’s Men’s and Women’s Emergency Shelter and the Salvation Army’s Emergency Family Shelter. Both organizations were recommended to receive no funding through Community Development Block Grant funds.

Exit 133 is reporting City Councilman Mike Lonergan has made a proposal to help out both the aforementioned shelters. Check out Exit 133’s story here.
