Someone wants to turn the derelict KOA campground down by Nevada and I-25 into temporary housing for the homeless.
He still has to line up financing, he said, but that isn’t his biggest hurdle.
“It’s the city,” he said.
The issue is over zoning. He and a proponent of the project, City Councilman Tom Gallagher, say the property at 1209 S. Nevada Ave. is already permitted for use as a campground. But Koscielski said city planners are treating it as a new development that would place cumbersome stipulations on the project.
Sounds like a good idea to me, but what keeps this temporary solution from becoming permanent?
