46 homeless individuals have been provided housing since the shelters were closed and the population was provided accommodations at the Super 8 Motel early in the coronavirus pandemic.  Acting Health Director Kara Prunty says at least 6 individuals were housed in transitional or permanent housing in the last few days so there are now 31 individuals staying at the alternative shelter.  City Council member Bob Taborsak says the city has been doing a much better job of housing people the last number of months and commended the department for doing that. Pacific House, a Stamford non-profit, is looking to buy the Super 8 Motel to convert into a shelter with wrap around support services for the homeless. Right now the number of rooms is limited by state funding, but going forward there should be increased capacity.
