Tallahasse, Fla. 9-13-13

Florida’s EBT card system is about to change. A new company will take over on Monday.

Donald Sumpter owns Your Neighborhood Market grocery store in Tallahassee. Many shoppers here at the store are on the SNAP or food stamp program for the state of Florida.

A new company, FIS/eFunds will now operate the system. Starting at midnight on Monday, people in the SNAP program won’t be able to use their EBT cards at their stores until sometime in the afternoon after their transition is completed.

"A lot of [the customers] are confused and believe that it’s gonna last the rest of the month," said Sumpter.

That’s why many stores across Florida are posting signs warning them of the statewide outage.

"We’re asking them this weekend to go ahead and make those food and grocery purchases in preparation of the one day delay on September 16th," said Department of Families and Children spokesman Whitney Ray.

Ray says new system will save the state million in the next three years. Additional staff will be added to track E-B-T cards hoping to cut back on fraud.

"[it will track] real-time monitoring of transactions as they happen in hopes that you stop the fraud before it gets out the door."

Sumpter says most of his customers know about the upcoming change but he’ll be ready if people still show up on Monday.

"We’re going to ride it out that day and not worry about it."

The EBT cards are used by millions of Floridians including more than 43,000 people in Leon County alone.

Like that’s gonna happen. Easier to live off people who do work. Get up at the crack of noon, light up the crack pipe, rob a convenience store, a couple of car-jackings. Full day, no?

43,000 out of 189,000 – that’s too high a percentage of the city’s population. Oh, never mind…..most of you helped to elect our president.

Tallahassee, FL – Tallahassee’s homeless shelter could be moving to a new location where a new state-of-the-art facility would be built.

Shelter administrators say it would be double the size to better serve the homeless.

Lynn Schmidt lives at the homeless shelter in Tallahassee. She supports the move to a new location. She says, "I think it’s a very good idea. I know that they’ll be housing, jobs, and other things for us. We don’t have to live on the streets no more and I am so glad for that."

The Shelter executive director, Jacob Reiter, says the plan is to move from West Tennessee Street to this property on West Pensacola Street between Goodwill and the Big Bend Homeless Coalition.

Reiter says the new facility would provide 24-hour comprehensive emergency services for the homeless, essential needs, case management, and job search services.

He says it’s needed because of overcrowding.

Reiter says, "Currently, we have people who sleep on the floors because we have lack of space. So, the new center would absolutely address that need. We want to help them move into independent housing."

Reiter says the 30,000 square-foot facility would be almost twice the size of the current shelter.

However, some people who live at the shelter, like Michelle Howard, are worried it wouldn’t be as convenient.

Referencing the current location, Howard says, "This location is near a store. Then we have Popeye’s right across the road. The bus terminal is down the road. Just let it stay where it is."

The land for the proposed site is owned by the City of Tallahassee. Reiter says they’re working on the acquisition details.

He says, if the plan goes through, they could break ground on the new shelter by the beginning of next year, and open by the end of the year.

Tallahassee FL- The Shelter on Tennessee street has been there for twenty years. New plans have it moving off Pensacola between the Goodwill and the Big Bend Homeless Coalition. The potential movements big changes– and not everyone is on board.

One resident at The Shelter said, "A lot of concerns going to be like how to get there how to get to work." Bush is one of the many residents at The Shelter who also has concerns with the facility moving.

"Well I heard that they were moving and I was kind of concerned with people with jobs and like my job I work at a temp service," Bush explained. With his job right around the corner from his current home, he’s worried the new plans to move may disrupt that.

The shelter is located off Tennessee Street where they face a lot of problems like over crowding but they are hoping to solve that issue by building a facility on a plot of land about twice the size of the current facility in place.

If all goes according to plan, ‘The Shelter’ off Pensacola would be up and running by the end of 2014.
With so many worried about this big move. Local homeless outreach groups are holding meetings to create an open dialogue between organizers and residents.

Grace Mission’s Pastor Amanda Nickles says, "Let people be able to speak their minds be in a neutral location a safe place where they feel comfortable and any worries concerns or questions let them be able to voice that."

A meeting will be held this Thursday at nine thirty in the morning at Grace Mission for the residents of The Shelter. Another meeting open to the public October eighth at five thirty at night at the Renaissance Community Center.

In a perfect world, all tenants and landlords get along. But, since that isn’t the case, it’s important to know your rights on both ends when handling issues.

Suzanne Latacz says her former landlord owes her a security deposit, but months later hasn’t seen it.

Thursday’s informational clinic moderated by Judge Judith Hawkins helped her out.

"We came out to see what we could find out and got some good advice," Latacz said.

"We left the apartment and did everything we were supposed to, but they wouldn’t refund our money, so now were going to have to go to small claims and get it."

Eviction notices, court appearances and small claims were all discussed.

Through Florida law, Judge Hawkins says landlords have most power in a dispute.

"I took four pages of notes so yes very helpful," said Kristina Tchourioukanova, a property manager.

"I work for an owner, a property owner and I do all the paperwork."

Landlords have to follow the right procedures:

– To evict a tenant, they must give them a proper three day notice, have the correct information filled out and bring all necessary paperwork to court.

– They should also ask for a writ of possession after the eviction goes through.

"I feel a lot more confident with filing evictions now. I was kind of just like showing up to the clerk’s office and being like here you go this is what I was given to give you, but now I can actually go with confidence and I can actually be like this is the right paperwork and I know it is so here you go," Tchourioukanova said.

If a tenant owes rent money, the landlord has to send them a notice of intent to hold on to a security deposit. Otherwise the tenant is owed that money back. The landlord can sue for it again along with the rent at a later date.
