SAN DIEGO—San Diego County officials put out a call Nov. 1 looking to purchase and place sleeping cabins to expand emergency housing options for San Diegans without shelter.

The county Health and Human Services Agency is seeking partner organizations for the cabins, and on Wednesday the Department of Homeless Solutions and Equitable Communities opened grant applications to purchase the cabins directly from a pre-approved vendor, according to a county statement.
