“By acquiring hotels like the Stay Inn and using them as a bridge to something more permanent, we can help unhoused residents into more stable housing and off the streets,” Hancock said through a spokesman on Tuesday. “While is undergoing due diligence on the property, we look forward to adding the Stay Inn to our rehousing toolbox.”
In announcing the federal funding request last year, city officials estimated it would cost $7.8 million to buy the 94-room hotel and covert it into a shelter with room for up to 200 unhoused people. After a few years as a shelter, it was expected to transition into supportive housing providing access to mental and behavioral health support for 150 residents.
