If you are worried about the homeless having needed clothing, don’t be. The city can make a dent in the problem by going after the enablers - people who either drive to spots where homeless have been known to gather and drop off bags of clothes that ultimately are picked through with the rest strewn about trashing the city. We’re talking about discarded mattresses, clothing, and other “donations” that are popping up every day not just in downtown but also in and around other commercial areas and even neighborhoods. The homeless can’t trash up Manteca without help. Manteca needs to start war on mattresses Let’s face it. They intend to have a job fair first for Manteca residents with the intent to hire as many qualified candidates as they can from the community that will be home to the firm’s 19th lodge. Great Wolf will employ 250 fulltime and 250 part-time workers. That means the promised economic benefits for Manteca could start flowing as early as July. And those workers with special skills that may not be available within a reasonable commute to Manteca will - like happens on other jobs - will fill Manteca hotel rooms as well as drop cash in local restaurants. The Great Wolf Lodge that will include a 109,767-aquare-foot indoor waterpark is expected to take 18 months to complete with a targeted opening of early 2020. The resort expected to break ground this summer will cost $180 million to build of which $76.3 million will go into the pockets of construction workers. Councilman Mike Morowit said he’s been told union workers are elated that Great Wolf is delivering on a promise that the bulk of the 1,397 construction jobs will be from the local region. Turner Construction - the firm Great Wolf relies on to build its resorts - will be tapping into area union labor to build the 500-room hotel and indoor water park in Manteca.
