The debate continues in Volusia County on where put the homeless in Daytona Beach.

Several homeless people have been sleeping in front of a county tag and title building on Beach Street. But business owners said the homeless have been harassing customers and visitors, so they want them out of the area.

Daytona Beach City Commission members on Wednesday night agreed to work with the Salvation Army to provide a temporary shelter for about 50 homeless people in Daytona Beach.

It will cost $6,000 a week to operate.

Volusia County Council Josh Wagner said the shelter will only help half of the population currently camping out on Beach Street.

He's proposing sheltering the homeless on a vacant piece of land on North Street, where there will be fencing and portable bathrooms.

Business owners just want action, though.

"I have customers that have stopped coming down until something is resolved,"  said David Stamey, who owns a business in the area.

The city's temporary shelter will only be in place for 90 days. The Daytona Beach City Commission wants the county to give them an offer in writing on a permanent shelter.

The county is considering using $4 million to build the Safe Harbor permanent homeless shelter.

The County Council is expected to discuss the issue at its meeting Thursday in DeLand.
