Ken Notes: Why not encourage communities to develop neighborhoods that allow tiny or small homes to be built on small footprints with some shared amenities. Like new upscale developments in other states, we could mix homeless with urban tourists and retail and service workers in ultra affordable communities. This is Wisconsin, tents are a dumb idea for living yet we turn a blind eye to what works now, worked in the past and could solve many problems overnight.
