and running, and how will they be managed? The estimated operating costs for utilities,
maintenance, security, cleaning and insurance for the shelter are $30,000 per month. These costs
are funded through existing budgets. How will the success of the shelter be measured and reported
to the public? As operator and service provider for the shelter, RT/SIS monitors data as it relates
to community impact and overall success of the space. RT/SIS reports directly to the Province of

shelter? A Good Neighbour Plan was created through a highly collaborative approach that the City

processes and resources for handling concerns. The City is committed to information sharing with
stakeholders as the project progresses. Is there a screening process for checking into the shelter?

are required to surrender any prohibited items to security. Once the screening is complete, a

area. Once residents leave the facility, all personal assets are returned to the resident. Is there
any reason a person wouldn’t be allowed to stay in the shelter? If an individual is unable to stay
at the shelter for any reason, RT/SIS staff will coordinate with other shelters in Regina to help
