Photo: Karen Sanchez<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p5\">District 9 Supervisor Hillary Ronen, who supports the project, held the meeting as a response to what she is calling an emergency public health crisis. Last November, voters passed Proposition Q, which prohibits tent encampments on public sidewalks and requires the city of San Francisco to offer temporary shelter before removing tents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThe tension around this issue that homeless people are barely surviving on these streets and residents who feel like the city has not done a good job of addressing this crisis is at a peaking point,\u201d Ronen said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">According to the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, there are more than 4,000 people living on the streets of San Francisco and an additional 3,000 who are sheltered. Approximately 900 of the unsheltered homeless are in tent encampments throughout the city, and about 300 live in the Mission.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">This will be the second navigation center built in the Mission District; former District 9 Supervisor David Campos first introduced the measure last year, which established one on Mission Street near the 16th Street BART station.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33882\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33882\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-33882\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?resize=600%2C400&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?resize=600%2C400&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?resize=360%2C240&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8228web.jpg?w=1348&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1348w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33882\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Neighbors who oppose the new Navigation Center on 1515 South Van Ness Ave., hold signs during a Mission Town Hall meeting on April 24, 2017. Photo: Cassie Ordonio<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p5\">Many nearby residents, a majority of whom are small business owners, disapprove of the proposed navigation center, calling it \u201cunfair\u201d and saying the Mission is at the frontline of the homeless crisis. Other residents held signs in opposition of the center, some of which read \u201cthe Mission is not a dumping ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cI can\u2019t even give them water anymore because they come there and they destroy my business,\u201d said German Matias during public comment at the town hall. Matias is the owner of Rincon Nayarit, which is located across the street from the proposed navigation center. \u201cI worked hard for this business, I mean it\u2019s $200,000 I invested. To most people it\u2019s nothing, but for me it\u2019s half of my life. And honestly I don\u2019t want it to see it vanish from my hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">But other business owners were in full support of the navigation center.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">City College of San Francisco Trustee Tom Temprano, who was at the meeting, co-owns Virgil\u2019s Sea Room bar, which is a couple blocks away from the site.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThe situation in the Mission is out of control. It is unlivable for homeless folks who are forced to live there without services,\u201d Temprano said. \u201cIt\u2019s unlivable for neighbors, who everyday are having to step over them to get to their homes. I understand, but I disagree with the solution to solving this problem is to continue to do nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cIf It\u2019s a band-aid, I\u2019ll take a band-aid over nothing and making it worse,\u201d Temprano continued.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Tensions began to flare at the meeting, with most of the frustrations being directed toward those opposing of the project. Some supporters of the project would either nod their heads or interrupt in disagreement every time someone would criticize the navigation center.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">A Facebook group called \u201cProtect the Mission,\u201d which opposes the project, created an event page to promote the townhall discussion, but no one attending the meeting came forward as a member or representative of the group. Neither the Facebook page nor the group\u2019s official website provide names of a director or any of its organizers. El Tecolote attempted to contact Protect the Mission, but was unable to get a response in time for print.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">According to Protect the Mission\u2019s Facebook page, the group wants to \u201cprevent another temporary homeless center set up in the Mission by the city in a residential area near three schools,\u201d claiming that the shelters are \u201cineffective, bringing crime and drug abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Ronen addressed safety concerns and announced that there will be enhanced police enforcement on the streets. The crowd booed that solution, given the mistrust between the community and the SFPD.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThe police department is not the first option, and we\u2019re not trying to be the first option,\u201d SFPD Chief Bill Scott said at the meeting. \u201cWe are a collaborative partner in this, and we\u2019re going to do it the right way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Blanca Trujillo, a mother who opposes the project, said she was concerned about her children.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cWe all have the right to live in a safe place. I live right at that area. My children need to be concerned about their studies, not about what\u2019s going on in that area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">The $2.5 million navigation center\u2019s temporary run will last between six to eight months. Both supporters and opponents of the project were concerned that too much money is being invested in a temporary solution.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33888\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33888\" style=\"width: 507px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-33888\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?resize=507%2C338&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"507\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?resize=600%2C400&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?resize=360%2C240&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Navigation-Center_8365web.jpg?w=864&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 864w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 507px) 100vw, 507px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33888\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jordan Davis poses for a portrait at the first Navigation Center near 16 Street BART station on May 1, 2017.
