Build a complex on the Aberdeen plateau. Use non-flammable metal mini -storage container homes.
Supply potatoes and turnups every day and have the occupants start their own community.

Learn from History, In the 18th century " King Frederick the Great " wanted to protect the people from famine . The people did not want to eat potatoes so he labeled them as " Royal Potatoes , posted unscrupulous guards.
The people thought they must be good since they were guarded so started to steal them.

Hopefully it will be a lot tidier than the current place is now. The dry shelter, detox, and sober living is a positive step. We've been catering to addiction for too long. I'm all for meeting people where they're at and supporting but letting the inmates run the Asylum cannot continue.
