 the other recommendation for the commission was to not allow a special use permit for the proposed Hope House on Oakland Avenue. That was a unanimous vote to not proceed, which may have been unnecessary anyway, as the Salvation Army had pulled its request for the permit earlier in the week. It's not known what the next step might be or when it might come, but Salvation Army officials have said they were unwavering in their commitment to creating lasting change in the lives of unhoused neighbors in Madison County.
