Waterville area Homeless support

Let's start breaking down the 'Mobile Shelter' scheme. A 20 ft cargo trailer with no reinforced structure, no windows, and no vents has an actual usable space of about 19 ft for 6 people. Converting a cargo trailer into a standard camper costs around $28,000, plus the purchase price of up to $10,000. The claim is 6 'units' or pods, but adding a walkway and two exits for code would reduce livable space to less than 3 ft by 5 ft.
A six foot person folded once .
Adding insulation, walls, and a restroom would further reduce space. A restroom would also require a water tank and holding tank. The city and state should be concerned about safety, weight, and parking. Who would pull this mobile unit and pay for insurance?
Insurance companies may not cover 6 at-risk people in a conversion not intended for living quarters. Town ordinances do not allow camping or sleeping in public lots, so permits and safety are also concerns. Who would be responsible for security and deciding who gets to be in this unit? The costs, including gas, tires, vehicle upkeep, and cleaning, would exceed $30,000 without permit fees. How would you safely heat a rolling tin can in below zero temperatures in Maine? What if the heat source fails ?
Shouldn't donors deserve a clear and concise plan approved by the city and state before granting funds? Doesn't that make sense?

Read it,share the hell out of it ! It needs to be stopped. Read the comments too, lots of questions no answers, why not ?
Think people. No answers.

Investigation: Waterville’s Mobile Shelter Scheme:
A wave of concerning scams is targeting the homeless community in Waterville, leaving residents with far more questions than answers. The operations began with an unrealistic proposal for a large-scale campground that state regulators would never legally permit, serving primarily as a front to collect unaccounted-for funds that have since vanished. Now, the scheme has pivoted to a new "mobile homeless shelter" concept made from converted cargo trailers. Promoters are actively soliciting donations for this mobile unit while dodging critical operational questions. No one involved can explain who will legally tow these massive trailers, who will provide security, where they are authorized to park, or where the restrooms are located. Furthermore, the organizers have zero plans for how residents and linens will be kept clean, raising severe public health concerns alongside the obvious safety hazards of jamming men and women together into a confined, unregulated mobile unit
⚠️ Permitting Warning: A Guaranteed Failure
Zoning Violations: Waterville ordinances strictly prohibit the use of unapproved mobile shelters or trailers for temporary dwellings.
State Health Codes:
Maine Department of Health and Human Services requires rigorous inspections for plumbing, waste disposal, and square-footage-per-person that a cargo trailer simply cannot meet.Fire Safety Hazards: Without certified commercial egresses, hardwired smoke detection, and proper fire-retardant materials, state fire marshals will never approve these units for multi-person housing.
Funding Red Flags:
Legitimate municipal and state agencies do not crowdsource unpermitted infrastructure through unaccountable cash channels.

DO NOT FUND THESE SCHEMES !

Let's talk about Kathleen Kennedy that decided she has the right to judge and condemn Wings Programs. What could her motivation be? Is she a person without sin ?
Well, let's look at her aliases.
Also known as: Kathleen L Kennedy, Catalina L Pagliaroli, K Pagliaroli, Kathleen L Evans, Kathleen L Oberlee, Kathleen L Obral, Catalina L Paglisede, Catalina Pagliaroli, Kathleen Lynn Evans, Kathleen L Oberle, Kathleen Evans, Kathy Oberle, Kathleen L Kennedey, Kathleen Oberlee, Kathleen Obral, Catalina Pagliroli, Catalina Paglisede, Catalina Catalina.
That's impressive right? She must be innocent .
Who might be feeding her information ? Let's glance at her " friends "
Oh there they are the 2 trouble makers that started the same BS last year , they never learn.
The premiere scammers Jennifer Goff who
has stolen from several children's charities she joined . Funneling funds into her own pocket.
Jennifer Goff wrote some interesting texts about other groups stating that they were collecting toys and clothes for needy children and giving them out to family . Yes Jennifer Goff wrote those text. While Goff herself was scamming donations.
Jennifer Goff was caught stealing clothes donated to a child age 10 in the shelter by the donor . It was then reported to W.I.N.G.S Programs.
When Goff was confronted she began her allegations against W.I.N.G.S. publishing a fake article.

Now Jennifer Goff has joined Cookson forming a new scam using the homeless. Another charity she can funnel into her own pocket.
Will she be sitting beside her registered child predator boyfriend ? He's not a level 1 he's a level 3 child offender with a lifetime conviction.
Level 3 the worst of the worst . The definition is force of a child under 13. That's Jennifer Goffs partner she brings around homeless children.
Waterville Area homeless discussion/ Chad Cookson is very aware .
Is this who you want around your children?
Are these people who you want your donations going to ?
Area homeless discussion & Chad Cookson need to answer to this.He has placed Goff on the board of a new scam ,I mean non profit. What could go wrong with your donations?

People , pay attention. Look at who is actually doing not talking . Who is Chad Cookson? Why is he aligned with shady ass people like Jennifer Goff . He also allows known drug dealers in his " Homeless discussion" seems like facilitating some shady deals.
A child predator helping out homeless what could go wrong right? Make it make sense people!!!
