San Diego's 1,000-bed homeless shelter proposal returns to city council
San Diego city leaders are making another run at negotiating a deal for the proposed “Hope @ Vine” homeless shelter. They held a closed-door meeting on Monday to iron out details to potentially use the site at Kettner and Vine in Middletown.
The proposed shelter was introduced in April 2024 to address the homeless situation in the city of San Diego. The site is expected to be a multi-million dollar endeavor. If a deal is reached, the shelter would house about 1,000 people experiencing homelessness.
City councilmembers and negotiators for Kettner Vine Creative House LLC held Monday’s closed-door meeting to discuss price and payment terms for potential acquisition of an interest or estate in the property located at 3554 Kettner Boulevard.
Before entering into the closed-door session, members of the public weighed in on the proposed site. Some people in the community are opposed to the proposed shelter because of the location and cost to the taxpayers.
“I don’t want to see us waste our precious resources on a solution that’s not going to deliver results,” San Diego resident Edward Moore said. “I would rather us take the money that we have, bolster the programs and augment them, and take small steps in directions we know are guaranteed to succeed.”
The facility would double the size of existing shelter capacity in the city of San Diego, reports NBC 7’s Dana Williams.
This discussion comes months after the city council delayed a decision in July, and little public discussion took place during the election season.
Specific details about the latest negotiations haven’t been released to the public because they refer to confidential items during the closed-door session, but Charles Modica, the city’s independent budget analyst, said city leaders should consider all options.
“Council should consider any and all proposals (including but not exclusive to real estate proposals) in the context of the City’s overall finances and the $258 million shortfall projected for the upcoming fiscal year,” Modica said.

Shane van Gisbergen earned his sixth career pole and second of the 2026 season on Saturday, rocketing to pole position around NASCAR’s all-new 3.4-mile street course at Naval Base Coronado. He even touched the wall twice on his fast lap, pushing to the absolute limit.
“A little bit (surprised),” said Van Gisbergen, who went out with the first group of qualifiers. “I thought the track would be better, and I thought people would execute a bit better. As I said, it’s just so difficult. There’s three or four corners you’re seeing for the first time of the day, and it’s on your heater. Amazing. The Red Bull Chevy is really good. Thank you to Trackhouse for doing a great job from yesterday, and we just need to get the driver a bit better,” he concluded with a smile.”

Van Gisbergen bested Carson Hocevar by 0.0156s with a fast lap of 2:14.788s. Ryan Blaney will start third, Zane Smith fourth, and Todd Gilliland fifth. Blaney was a little bit quicker than SVG for most of his lap, but lost it through the final set of corners.
Daniel Suarez, Ryan Preece, Connor Zilisch, Michael McDowell, and Austin Hill will out the remainder of the top ten on the starting grid.
Project 91 driver Kevin Magnussen qualified 21st for his NASCAR Cup debut. Notably, championship leader Tyler Reddick spun out, but still reached 17th on the grid. Denny Hamlin is just 19 points behind him, and will start 26th.

Some other notable drivers very deep in the field include William Byron in 27th, Chase Elliott 30th, and an injured Christopher Bell 37th. He will have Brent Crews on standby, and may finish the race for Bell on Sunday.
Jimmie Johnson was the first driver to set a time, and showed just how tricky things were as he had to use the runoff area in Turn 2 to avoid an incident. Erik Jones also smacked the wall at the exit of Turn 16, but there were no red flags during the session.

Neymar expected to return from right calf injury and play for Brazil in World Cup against Scotland
Neymar is expected to return from a right calf injury and play for Brazil in its final World Cup group match, coach Carlo Ancelotti said Friday night.
Neymar missed Brazil’s first two games of the tournament, including Friday’s 3-0 win over Haiti.
Ancelotti said Neymar would go through individual training on Saturday, train with the team on Monday and “will be available” for Brazil when it closes Group C play against Scotland on Wednesday in Miami Gardens, Florida.
Neymar is Brazil’s career scoring leader with 79 goals in 129 international appearances.
The 34-year-old midfielder has yet to practice in full sessions with the team since reporting to Brazil’s squad while nursing the calf injury.
Looking to play in his fourth World Cup, Neymar had tests on his calf last Monday to determine the progress of the injury that he sustained while playing for Brazilian club Santos on May 17.
There was widespread debate in Brazil over whether Neymar, whose first World Cup was on home soil in 2014, should have been called up for the tournament. He has struggled since returning from tearing the ACL in his left knee in October 2023 in a World Cup qualifier.
Neymar has four goals and two assists in eight matches for Santos this year.
