The construction in front of the shelter has caused concerns over safety, parking and limitations with donations.
SAN ANTONIO — It's been two years since road construction in front of thebegan, causing concerns over safety, parking, and limitations with donations.
"In summer of 2022 it started, and ever since then, constantly we've had something been going on," Grimes said."It splashed onto our fence that we had to put up,” she said."People couldn't get in, we couldn't get out." "Our parking lot was used as storage for a long time,” Grimes said."I personally came out and asked the supervisor one time, ‘Why? Can you please move your stuff?' He was told by the city that he could use our property."The only communication Grimes has received from the construction company about the road construction is a notice about asphalt paving on Rocket Lane being completed in two days in October of 2023. Eight months later, it still isn't complete.
"We got a few bids to move our entrance, so move the one out at front by the road so people don't have to walk right by these cars and step out into a highway," she said.
