Voting on Upgrades to Peace Village Homeless Camp Planned Tonight

The Rochester City Council is scheduled to vote tonight on a plan to provide more comfortable facilities at the city's Peace Village homeless camp.

If approved, the city would spend $750,000 on 15 insulated shelters, a community room, and a permanent bathroom at the encampment on Industrial Street. .

$460,000 would be spent for the buildings. A non-profit will get $290,000 to oversee the project.

The money would come from unspent funds in the Police Accountability Board budget.
