The City of Campbell River is making some temporary changes to where overnight sheltering can legally take place as it works to open a new homeless sheltering site.
40-unit supportive housing site called HEARTH VillageThe site was chosen because it was already approved for overnight sheltering. But while the new facility is being set up, the city has temporarily allowed overnight sheltering at several new locations so that people have a legal place to camp while construction is underway.
The city says having a limited number of areas where shelters can be set up will make it easier for vulnerable people to know where they are allowed to stay, and for bylaw officers and police to patrol.
