Monday: Homeless Advocates to Discuss Tax Proposal in Downtown Kalamazoo

As they try to build momentum for a Kalamazoo County ballot proposal, homeless advocates are holding a public meeting Monday to unveil survey results that show whether there is public support for their plan.

The meeting will be held from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the Van Duesen Room at the Kalamazoo Public Library on Rose and South streets.

Last month, Kalamazoo County Public Housing Commission Chairman David Anderson asked for the Kalamazoo County Board of Commissioners to put a 0.33 mill tax request on the Nov. 8 ballot. Anderson is a Kalamazoo city commissioner.
