The City anticipates that the Housing Hub may assist approximately 300 people daily with day center services, emergency housing, and permanent housing navigation services. The City’s vision for the management and operating structure is depicted in the diagram below. The City anticipates that each operator will hire and manage its own staff and secure all funding necessary to perform all duties and services described in their proposal. The City will contribute a to-be-determined sum each year to the operation of the building. A to-be-determined entity (the “Ownership Entity”) will own and operate the building long term.
