Hi Erin-
Here is a response to the Mayor’s questions for you to share. Let me know if you’d prefer I respond and if so, to the Mayor or the entire Council. thanks
Hotel Warming Services
:
For the last fiscal year, warming season 2021-22, the total cost for the hotel rooms and social services was $113,000. The services provided, plus the stay per night, cost on average $121 per person. Stays ranged from 37 to 258 days for a total of 935 nights of service.
Six unduplicated individuals were served during warming season 2020-21. Combined, over the past two years, 12 individuals were served through the hotel warming services.
The number of individuals served is limited by the number of hotel rooms that are secured each season.
Church Warming Services

For the last fiscal year, warming season 2021-22, the total cost for the church warming shelter services was $70,000. The cost on average per person was $511.

Good Morning,
I have the following questions about this item. The staff report, page 2, says,
“For the past two years, . . . Winter Warming Services have been provided through hotel stays.
Last fiscal year, six rooms were provided . . .”
What was the total amount of funds spent last year to pay for these hotel stays for six people?
How many individuals were served during the previous fiscal year, and what did that cost?
How many total individuals were served by the hotel stay program over the past two years? Thank you.
Marilyn
