Lawmaker says Scottsdale wasn't clear to residents over plan to house some of 'The Zone's' homeless

"We have to serve folks from 'The Zone,'" Human Services Director Greg Bestgen said.

Three of those hotel rooms will be dedicated to residents of the Phoenix homeless encampment known as 'The Zone'."We would serve specifically senior women, women with children and families," Bestgen said. Scottsdale resident Jan Dubauskas attended the meeting when the grant was announced and said there was no public comment allowed.

State Representative Matt Gress, whose district includes parts of Phoenix and Scottsdale, sent a letter to Scottsdale Mayor David Ortega wanting answers to how the program works.
