Nelson city council to talk homelessness

But they held off on third reading and adoption to get more public feedback.

Tonight the Nelson committee on homelessness will deliver a 15 minute presentation to council.

There’s also a letter on the agenda from the Chamber Of Commerce which generally supports the bylaw.

And individual letters from several Nelson Business Association members, some in favour and some opposed.
