Thank you Mike,  I appreciate the communication and am happy we can assist in this critical need.

I am going to forward an email from my staff with some concerns stemming from your last use of the facility.  We will need to ensure all concerns are addressed and resolved prior to the weekend and that going forward  more care will be taken of the facility. 

Thank you for your service and attention to our concerns, Marina

This is Mike Boisture, Inclement Shelter Manager. I will be sending updates when we will be opening the shelter at East Side Community Center. As a part of our agreement, Valeo will be responsible for determining when the shelter will be open according to weather forecasts. I will email weekly plans for opening the shelter every Monday by Noon.

The week of 11.1.20 we will be opening the inclement weather shelter Saturday (11.7.20) and Sunday (11.8.20). This decision is made based on the below weather predictions as of 0730 this morning. We may remain open through Tuesday. This decision to open on Monday and Tuesday will be made on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. Below is the forecasted weather for Tacoma
