While his health secretary announces extension of the stay-at-home-order in California, governor Gavin Newsom is talking about his home key program, which he says is unprecedented. His program buys old hotels and motels and allows homeless people to move into them.
One of those properties purchased with state money is the Motel 6 in Paso Robles. Which is expanding its operation as rooms are reconditioned.
It will be fully operational February first, offering about 60 rooms to homeless and many other rooms in temporary low cost rental housing. El Caminio Homeless Organization will operate the homeless operation.
