Not the right location mens hostel/homeless shelter

Cameron from Trentham

Disappointed to say the least to read in the Upper Hutt Leader that the location for this shelter will be on the corner of Main st and Russell st.

The location should be further from the CBD but not so far as they couldn't make their way on foot to the CBD....5-10 min walk.

Great idea they have, poor execution of plan unfortunately.

Before anyone thinks i don't have a heart, i care deeply for the situation of people out there in our community, but i also understand we need to keep our local CBD ready and waiting for local retailers, business's etc but by placing this Hostel in the CBD it's going to drive shops etc away from from Upper Hutt.
