Hennepin County spending $214,000 to house a dozen people from tent camp

A dozen people living in the massive homeless camp in south Minneapolis will move into a south Minneapolis fourplex, after Hennepin County allocated more than $214,000 for the emergency housing.

The Hennepin County Board on Tuesday approved using state grants to relocate people to a building at 2408 4th Av. S. The nonprofit American Indian Community Development Corp. (AICDC) purchased the fourplex on Oct. 1 from St. Stephen’s Human Services, which for more than 40 years had operated a residence there for American Indian women recovering from addiction.
