Housing for homeless on a temporary, modular scale — that’s the plan of a year-old nonprofit, which now has Town Council’s blessing. Mayor and council last week unanimously approved a two-year initiative brought by Georgetown community liaison Judson Malone and his nonprofit Springboard Collaborative: a plan to install a 30-unit modular pallet village to provide temporary shelter for the homeless.

- How will that solve the homeless problem? — Sally Stewart
- If you looked at my original comment, I said we were going to need a lot more because of the government. Homelessness is a man-made phenomenon. It will always exist. Always. Animals are ironically also homeless because of humans taking away their homes! — Beth Gallagher
