Upscale coastal enclave beloved by Kennedys erupts after homeless shelter plan puts it steps from school

Local officials and business owners are advocating for alternative solutions to address the issue.
- ▪The proposed homeless shelter would be located 150 yards from an elementary school in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
- ▪Residents are worried that homeless individuals would be forced outside at 7 a.m., the same time children are arriving at school.
- ▪Town Councilor Betty Ludtke expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of the relocation plan.
