Letter to the editor: Try it yourself

To the editor:

I am so sorry our city and county leaders are in a “complicated situation” trying to solve homelessness. I have an idea of how the answers could become clearer to them.

I suggest the city manager, all city and county commissioners leave their homes and live homeless for one week. This very week with low temperatures would be perfect. No car, only a backpack and maybe $50.

I believe the result would be enlightening and would bring many beneficial decisions.

Eilene Lawrence,
