Editorial: Novato needs to make decision about homelessness committee

Complaints aired by members of Novato’s Housing and Homelessness Committee deserve a fair hearing and response.

The advisory panel, formed in 2022, has met only quarterly, but its last two meetings have been canceled.

That certainly raises questions about the city’s commitment to having such a committee.

City Hall, through its spokesperson, says the committee meetings were canceled by the city because it couldn’t provide necessary staffing for them. For a meeting held once every three months, that’s surprising to hear.
