A location has been announced for a car camp being planned by the Ballard Homes for All Coalition.

Vic Opperman, founder of Sustainable Ballard, said at a Feb. 17 Sustainable Green Lake meeting that the camp will be coming to St. Luke's Episcopal Church in Ballard.

The location was confirmed by a number of community members, though no date has been set for the establishment of the camp.

Rep. Mary Lou Dickerson (D-36th District), founder of the Ballard Homes for All Coalition, said in September that the purpose of the planned car camps is to create a safe and secure place for the homeless to park.

According to a September press release from the coalition, people hoping to use the camps would have to go through a screening process, and outreach workers would make regular rounds to make sure there are no problems.

There are approximately 50 car campers in Ballard, according to the press release.
