A sudden rise in the number of Londoners living in homeless encampments this month sparked a lengthy debate at city hall about how best to spend limited funding.
As a drop-in for homeless women prepares to open in the Old East Village, Councillor Susan Stevenson said questions about the facility remain unanswered. “There was no information on the services that were going to be offered, the timelines, or how the $650,000 is going to be spent,” Stevenson said during Tuesday’s council meeting.
