However, they will be offered residency in shelters and an area to store their belongings. In May, a flyer distributed by the city to those living in tents in the corridors stated:

“We understand that a tent or structure has been your temporary home, but it is important to ensure the safety and cleanliness of the area for everyone. Illegal and harmful activity that has occurred inside tents and structures is of deep concern to law enforcement and public health teams.”
