The temporary winter shelter is slated to close at the end of March but the City of Penticton is considering extending it for another year .

City staff will go before council on Tuesday to determine next steps in possibly extending shelter operations.

The shelter operates on a 24 -7 basis instead of just overnight, which allows it to provide ongoing access to services.

Almost a dozen shelter residents have moved into more permanent type of housing.
