Gov. Gavin Newsom committed to spending tens of millions of dollars to over one thousand “tiny homes” across California Thursday in an attempt to curtail the Golden State’s rampant homelessness problem.
The Governor announced that a total of 1,200 condensed living enclosures will be built and spread out across four California cities with the intent to clear out some of the many homeless encampment domains that haunt several cities across the state, according to The Associated Press. The state-funded living spaces are poised to boast electricity but lack running water, plumbing and appliances. The cost for the new tiny home program comes to $30,000,000.
During Newsom’s tenure as Governor that began in 2019, his gubernatorial administration has spent $22.3 billion on combatting homelessness and housing projects. (RELATED: Massachusetts Gov. Seeks To Allocate $28,000,000 To Implement Policy Allowing Illegal Immigrants To Get Driver’s Licenses)
One third of all homeless people in the U.S. dwell in California, the outlet noted.
