HOMELESS - From Page 1

There were 72 respondents to the survey. Of the 72 homeless people to respond, 41 were housed in one way or another, but 73 per cent of those were worried that they were going to lose their arrangements for shelter. The 31 remaining respondents had no place to call home at all, with 17 of them being absolutely homeless and 14 of them ‘hidden homeless.’ The Homelessness Committee is hoping that Leamington will enact some homelessness programs to help, as well as advocate to upper levels of government for funding and resources. “Now that we have this data, we can ask for some help from our partners at the city,” said MacDonald. “Thank you for this.” Currently, all resources from upper

Enns and Warkentin would like to see the municipality work with local stakeholders to establish a ‘made in Leamington’ solution, which would include developers, community services and businesses. A big part of that will be sustainable, affordable and transitional housing — something that council has been looking at with the old LDSS property on Talbot Street West. Alissa Enns says the final report will be forthcoming, and that final report will help local officials make the decisions necessary to help alleviate a lot of the barriers and challenges in this area.

LEAMINGTON — The new pedestrian pier on the Leamington dock will now have its own concession on wheels. At the regular meeting Monday, Leamington Council approved the proposal from Twisted Sistaz to supply food on the pedestrian pier for the rest of this summer. A Request for Proposal was issued in June for any vendors wishing to supply food on the dock and the trio of Annie Klassen, Mary Klassen and Tina Wiebe answered the call. Twisted Sistazs will provide residents and visitors on the pier with familiar foods ‘with a twist.’ “They are offering fresh street foods, like corn-on-the-cob, tacos, hotdogs, fresh-cut fries and nachos,” said Leam-

ington’s Director of Legal and Legislative Services, Ruth Orton. In 2017, the municipality entered into an agreement with the Province of Ontario to use the Leamington dock for recreation, and at that point, railings, benches, tables and a large wooden deck were installed. Those improvements created an excellent spot for people to sit and watch the Leamington sunset. The food truck takes that experience to the next level. Council talked about opening that area up next year to a few more food vendors if the interest is there. Twisted Sistaz is expected to be open on the pier from July 21 to September, Wednesday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
