A new report on strategies to prevent and reduce homelessness is in front of Athens-Clarke County commissioners for a vote next Tuesday. Normally, the vote to accept a report like that is relatively non-controversial, but this report may be different.
At a work session earlier this month, some commissioners expressed consternation with the final product, saying that it didn’t really suggest any new strategies. WUGA’s Martin Matheny spoke to District 2 Commissioner Melissa Link about the plan, as well as a new ban on short-term rentals in some parts of Athens.
