551 Yi ShanI do NOT approve of business homeless people into a shelter in Old Ashburn.
552 Jih Hsiang ChenI do NOT approve of business homeless people into a shelter in Old Ashburn
553 AnonymousWe do not need a facility of this type in Ashburn. My family has lived here for over 10 years and have NEVER seen a homeless person in Ashburn. The communities of Leesburg or Sterling would benefit more by having it in their community. There are way too many elementary schools within close proximity to this - we do not need to have a "lockdown" at school because of a "suspicious" person wandering around outside. It would just be a matter of time before this happens if you allow the shelter to come.

555 Mike an d Peggy PurcellWe moved to Ashburn because we wanted a safe place to raise our four children. With so many young families in this area , I worry about the shelter being placed here. Isn't there a location that will better provide resourses for the homeless?...in a larger city in the area?
556 Laura M. MillerHow does something like this happen without us knowing? Shame on our ELECTED officials for not informing us of this posiblity. If its not that bad than let them put in their backyard. I know this has influenced the way I voted today!

558 Sean DuritsaDo not agree with location!
559 AnonymousAshburn in not an appropriate place to serve the homeless community. Like it or not, many of the homeless are mentally ill and prone to violence. This does not belong literally in my backyard.

567 Elizabeth JohnsonI do not think Ashburn is the appropriate place to locate a homeless shelter. I feel that the shelter has the potential to bring problems to Ashburn that do not currently exsist.

570 Amy AbbottHow many homeless are actually in Loudoun County? Wouldn't it make more sense to have this in Sterling?
571 AnonymousI do not want a homeless shelter in the middle of a residential area. Please locate it closer to the areas it serves.
572 AnonymousI do not approve the homeless shelter in Old Ashburn
573 AnonymousAshburn is not the place! Is unsafe for users of the WO&D Trail, children in nearby schools, and families at the nearby playground.
574 John RothIf we had a "Homeless" problem in our area, I would be all for it, but.....we don't have a homless problem here, so let the them go to where the homeless problem is......Leesburg, Sterling, Herndon, Manassas,Fairfax, whereever.......
575 AnonymousPlease do not allow GSA to operate the Thrift Store or the Homeless Shelter in an area that will not effectively provide assistance to those who need it. Some of the numerous reasons not to allow GSA to provide these services in Ashburn are Safety, Economics, and Common Sense.
576 Grace RothKeep it in Leesburg

580 Don BauernfeindGSA has got to move, that space would be better served as additional space for the Ashburn Fire House
581 AnonymousThis definitely does not seem like the best location for such a shelter. I know I will never let my wife and kids go for a walk on the W&OD trail with such a shelter with recently released prisoners, recovering drug addicts, etc. nearby.

585 Mike CoxAny shelter should be located where the homeless came from. I've lived in Ashburn for 18 years and have never seen a homeless person here that I'm aware of. I also think it should be in a non-residential area so as minimize the impact on residents, especially children. With the homeless, recently released prisoners, drug addicts, etc. being brought in I think the danger to children and an increase in crime should be obvious to anyone paying attention.

587 Pamela CresineAbsolutely not in my neighborhood, near my children and with my tax money. Why don't you consider running out of the county building in Leesburg in your own offices?
588 AnonymousKeep those bastards out of my neighborhood. Send them to Sterling--they'll never notice the increase in crime.

597 AnonymousWhile I understand the need for shelters for the homeless, I oppose the planned geographical proximity of the planned shelter to adjoining facilities frequented by children
