"Our goal is to ensure that both the motel-based shelter program and the neighboring business can successfully operate at this site. We remain committed to supporting local businesses while also reducing unsheltered homelessness across the city."
Los Garcia's Restaurant is moving to a new location after experiencing a significant drop in sales due to parking issues linked to a nearby homeless shelter. The restaurant's current site will close on May 31, with the new location opening tentatively on June 2. The conversion of the Alura Inn into a shelter reduced available parking from 42 spaces to 18, severely impacting customer access. The city has communicated with the restaurant about support programs, but Garcia feels the changes have negatively affected her business.
