Good point, however they will have to be moved in any circumstance to the new housing, correct? Whether that is a couple blocks over or a couple towns over.

Anyway under this plan they won't be forcefully relocated, the offers will simply be available at a different location.

No, my point is they don't have to move. Housing for the homeless afaik is largely entirely voluntary, and one of the big issues in my understanding is that, even when available, some will choose (for various reasons) not to use it. Making it available elsewhere will make it even less likely one would accept the help, and even if they did it wouldn't address the issue in the area being discussed.
