My wife and I were discussing the issue of so many homeless people around here and she came up with an idea that I thought was wonderful. We have a three car garage that is separate from the house that we don’t even use in all honesty because there’s a two car garage attached to the house that we park our cars in. The other was built for the kids cars. It’s tall enough to make a room upstairs in too.
What my wife wants for us to do is to close in each bay of the garage and take down the garage doors, close that in and make three small apartments for people that have become homeless. She said that we could give them the first month free to help them get back on their feet and then just charge $100 a month to cover the extra electricity that it will cost us. It wouldn’t take very much to do just that. The upstairs could be the bedroom easily. Now all I have to do is check with the county and see if I can get a permit to do what we want. I really hope we can. I bet I can find a lot of help with it too from our neighbors.
