Prince Albert City Council will hold a public hearing Monday evening on the proposed permanent shelter at 650 Exhibition Drive, giving residents and organizations the chance to speak before councillors consider final approval. Property manager Trevor Leibel wrote on behalf of Cornerstone, warning that shelter activity could spill into the retail hub and undermine public safety for families and businesses. Other residents submitted letters citing worries about safety, contamination, and neighbourhood disruption. The public hearing is set for Oct. 6, 5 p.m. Monday at City Hall. Council is expected to consider both second and third readings of the shelter zoning bylaw, along with the development permit, following community submissions.
