EMAIL

• For input on the permanent shelter outside of site criteria, citizens and community partners are asked to email shelter@reddeer.ca. All emails received prior to Monday June 13 will be included in administration’s report to council on June 20.

Officials say the input opportunities allow the City to discuss and dig into site criteria with the intent to inform a city council decision about the future site of a permanent shelter in Red Deer.

Administration will present a ‘what we heard’ report to council on June 20. Following this meeting, site criteria will be finalized which will guide the site selection process.
