After hours of intense debate from both councillors and the public, the proposed temporary shelter for 210 Pacific Ave. has now been approved.
And while the location might be set, the decision isn’t doing much to ease concerns about the location and safety of the shelter. “The perception of safety for our clients is established by surrounding the space with an eight-foot chain link fence. The psychological safety of every child entering and exiting our space is of paramount concern,” Bourassa said.Other residents shared concerns that the project and the community consultation was rushed but the city is adamant that no steps were skipped during those processes.
