The Rev. Robert Newman said the parish badly needs the shelter space back for its own programs.

Will it have the luxury of using desperately needed shelter space to assess families while still other families are sleeping in city offices?

Councilwoman Wilson said that there was adequate shelter space for those who truly needed it.

The city's only immediate recourse is to shift the homeless around to free some shelter space for prisoners.

"We've worked diligently to add shelter space and just cannot keep up with that crush of applications."

After the eviction, the City of Toronto made shelter spaces available for each of the roughly 110 people removed.

"And part of it is to make sure that the shelter space, which is expensive, is truly being used for people who need the housing."

Breakfasts and work clothes were furnished, and shelter space was requisitioned.

Newly covered area was added to provide additional shelter space.

This is about one quarter of all of the available shelter space in Hudson County.
