City partners with charities for emergency shelter for homeless

In October, 2020, City commission approved the Order 20-218 to allow CARES Act fund to provide overnight motel vouchers. This program would be coordinated by local Room In The Inn and MadisonHome, Inc.

The grant in the amount of $52,000 would hopefully allow homeless friends a warm and clean place to stay when overnight temperature is 45 degrees or below.

Relax Inn has agreed to provide 13 single rooms and an office for the duration of program, which would start in the middle of December.
