Introduction
Many municipalities deal with the issue of homelessness and as a result, they may
require
homeless
shelters.
Knack
(2008)
speaks
about
the
typical
issues
associated
with
homeless
activity
such
as
the
need
for
shelter,
community
involvement,
social
conflict
and
resident
desire
for
peaceful
neighborhoods.
Planning
ideas
to
consider
these
topics
are
also
seen
in
other
sources.
For
example,
the
need
to
plan
city
infrastructure
in
a
manner
that
can
easily
accommodate
typical
issues
associated
with
homelessness
as
well
as
developing
community
initiatives
to
help
resolve
the
social
issues
that
arise
in
certain
areas
where
homeless
people
tend
to
accumulate.
These
factors
lead
to
the
assessment
of
urban
design
in
order
to
accommodate
all
members
of
the
community.
What
positive
and
negative
aspects
of
a
citys
urban
planning
are
best
suited
for
the
placement
of
homeless
shelters,
and
how
does
this
affect
the
communitys
sense
of
place?
For
example,
Young
(2012)
discusses
the
development
of
a
therapeutic
community
specifically
for
the
homeless
population
in
Victoria,
British
Columbia.
He
establishes
that
various
community
members
lack
the
interest
for
this
type
of
development
to
take
place
near
their
houses
because
they
wouldnt
want
to
risk
experiencing
conflicts
from
any
homeless
citizens.
The
residents
would
also
be
concerned
about
possible
troublesome
events
that
may
take
place,
since
there
is
often
a
safety
risk
associated
with
mentally
disabled
homeless
citizens
encountering
other
municipal
residents.
Young
outlines
a
very
good
example
of
the
basic
concerns
associated
with
the
homeless
population,
urban
planning,
and
the
desires
of
the
citys
residential
community.
The
homeless
populations
in
cities
tend
to
influence
the
types
of
cultural
activity
within
certain
areas
of
a
community
as
well
as
the
way
many
city
residents
feel
about
their
environment
(Vandemark,
2007).
This
being
said,
the
locations
of
homeless
shelters
may
play
a
large
role
in
the
functionality
of
a
community
since
most
communities
have
diverse
populations
that
may
conflict
in
certain
locations
especially
where
social
differences
are
great.
Observing
areas
surrounding
homeless
shelter
facilities
can
provide
insight
on
the
impacts
of
the
homeless
population
on
nearby
neighborhoods.
I
will
synthesize
literature
researched
on
homelessness,
homeless
shelters,
their
influences
on
the
areas
urban
design
and
the
way
people
feel
about
their
environment.
I
will
outline
two
themes
as
a
foundation
for
the
field
research.
The
first
theme
is
the
characteristics
of
the
cultural
infrastructure
around
homeless
shelters,
and
the
second
theme
is
the
sense
of
place
related
to
areas
that
are
nearby
homeless
shelters,
and
how
this
sense
of
place
differs
from
person
to
person
based
on
their
demographic
profile.
Sense
of
place
is
the
peoples
emotional
connections
to
places
based
on
events
leading
to
cognitive
renditions
of
their
surroundings
(Vandemark,
2007).
First,
I
will
explore
the
nature
of
homeless
shelter
planning
as
well
as
the
natural
distributions
of
individual
homeless
men
and
women
throughout
urban
environments.
Parashiv
(2013)
discusses
the
key
characteristics
of
urban
settings
and
their
connection
to
homelessness
in
Bucharest,
Romania.
He
found
that
the
property
types,
the
physical
structure,
and
the
lots
state
of
use
were
all
significant.
He
creates
a
four-class
typology
consisting
of
public,
semipublic,
semiprivate,
and
private
space.
He
then
subdivides
these
into
two
more
classes
of
open
and
closed
space,
to
then
flow
into
either
abandoned
or
used
space.
Paraschivs
(2013)
literature
serves
as
a
sufficient
source
to
begin
researching
the
impact
of
certain
land-use
types
on
the
urban
planning
of
a
city
as
well
as
understanding
land-use
and
cultural
features
based
on
his
breakdown
of
land-use
types.
Donovan
and
Shinseki
(2013)
discusses
the
importance
of
efficient
government
planning
to
incorporate
the
filtering
of
homeless
people
away
from
public
spaces
(like
main
streets)
and
towards
places
more
suitable
to
maintain
the
functionality
of
the
city.
For
example,
they
discuss
the
implementation
of
mental
health
care
and
drug
abuse
programs
throughout
the
city
to
help
war
veterans
who
develop
mental
issues
like
post-traumatic
stress
disorder
and
drug
abuse
issues.
The
cultural
characteristics
such
as
the
type
of
land-
use
(commercial,
residential,
etc.)
and
the
type
of
demographics
around
areas
of
the
city
containing
mental
health
facilities
were
not
discussed.
Brown-Luthango,
Makanga,
and
Smit
(2013)
also
write
about
the
importance
of
effective
urban
planning
in
Cape
Town,
South
Africa
in
relation
to
the
accumulation
of
homeless
people
within
vacant
land.
Since
vacant
land
proves
to
be
one
of
the
many
areas
where
homeless
people
tend
to
accumulate
in
urban
settings,
this
type
of
land-use
can
be
considered
when
comparing
areas
that
contain
homeless
shelters
and
to
find
contrasts
in
the
cultural
properties
of
these
areas
to
ultimately
determine
suitable
cultural
characteristics
of
residents
surrounding
homeless
shelters.
Much
like
the
nature
of
vacant
land,
Galvis
(2014)
discusses
the
significance
of
public
space
in
a
community
and
how
the
homeless
population
decreases
the
social
harmony
between
the
homeless
and
the
rest
of
the
people
of
public
areas,
due
to
diverse
cultural
biases
of
the
people
living
in
the
community
and
their
sense
of
place.
This
is
dependent
on
the
demographic
profile
of
each
individual
(e.g.
younger
shopkeepers
with
more
energy
may
not
be
bothered
as
much
as
an
elderly
shopkeeper).
Lobao
&
Murray
(2005)
conducted
a
spatial
analysis
project
in
Columbus,
Ohio
using
a
geographic
information
system
(GIS)
and
found
that
homeless
shelters
were
typically
located
in
areas
with
minimal
residential
land-use
activity.
This
is
useful
for
investigating
why
this
is
and
if
this
is
the
best
course
of
action
to
take
to
suit
the
needs
of
both
the
homeless
and
the
residential
community.
Sense
of
Place
Lobao
&
Murray
(2005)
suggest
that
homeless
shelters
are
located
within
areas
with
smaller
population
densities.
While
homeless
shelters
are
suggested
to
allocate
around
less
densely
populated
areas
in
Lobao
&
Murrays
(2005)
study,
it
seems
that
homeless
individuals
tend
to
distribute
around
areas
with
denser
populations.
Lobao
&
Murrays
observations
are
useful
for
investigating
the
nature
of
the
homeless
population
distribution
throughout
cities
by
surveying
the
staff
and
residents
at
these
homeless
shelters.
The
survey
would
assess
their
knowledge
of
homeless
activity
throughout
the
city
prior
to
residing
in
the
homeless
shelter.
Wasserman
and
Clair
(2011)
discuss
various
scenarios
in
which
free-roaming
homeless
people
are
affecting
peoples
sense
of
the
area.
If
people
do
not
feel
comfortable
in
their
intended
living
environment,
it
is
not
good
for
the
citys
wellbeing.
This
article
opens
up
context
for
visualizing
residential
and
homeless
disputes
and
the
urban
patterns
resulting
from
these
events
(such
as
accumulations
of
homeless
people
and
infrastructure
patterns
within
the
downtown
center
of
the
municipality).
Wasserman
&
Clair
(2010)
suggested
that
the
homeless
are
attracted
to
highly
populated
areas.
These
social
factors
are
useful
for
analyzing
in
collaboration
with
the
spatial
factors
of
land-use
and
the
cultural
factors
of
the
areas
infrastructure.
Altogether,
the
analysis
should
provide
a
good
sense
of
the
typical
planning
mechanisms
that
are
most
appropriate
for
areas
containing
homeless
shelters.
Louis
du
Toits
(2010)
case
study
on
government
responses
to
South
Africas
homelessness
offers
extensive
insight
into
the
factors
influencing
the
prioritization
of
community
issues,
as
well
as
spatial
characteristics
of
homeless
shelter
locations.
This
source
mentioned
that
shelters
in
the
studied
municipalities
were
located
just
outside
the
inner
core
where
there
tended
to
be
more
low-income
housing.
This
information
can
be
compared
to
the
homeless
activities
in
order
to
increase
the
quality
of
the
final
analysis.
Kuzmak
and
Muller
(2010)
address
the
main
sociological
issue
of
homeless
activity
as
it
relates
to
the
distribution
of
homeless
shelter
locations
versus
the
environmental
satisfaction
of
nearby
city
residents.
Land-use
and
suitable
shelter
allocation
is
discussed
throughout
this
article
with
notes
about
industrial
and
residential
land-use
containing
similar
characteristics
pertaining
to
homeless
isolation
within
shelter
lifestyles.
This
research
presents
more
existing
opinions
on
the
spatial
characteristics
of
homeless
shelters
and
the
influences
they
can
have
on
the
lives
of
other
city
residents.
This
affects
the
way
the
city
can
be
viewed
based
on
the
cultural
bias
of
certain
people.
Goodheart
(2014)
discusses
how
the
city
of
Bothell,
Washington,
USA
is
conflicting
with
the
churchs
decisions
to
house
the
homeless.
This
article
discusses
the
many
variables
and
opinions
related
to
what
it
means
to
produce
an
appropriate
religious
response
to
homelessness.
This
literature
extends
the
outlook
on
peoples
sense
of
place.
The
discussion
of
religion
is
one
factor
leading
to
many
peoples
sense
of
place
and
is
an
example
of
the
diversity
of
data
that
can
be
gathered
for
this
research
question.
O'Connell,
Oppenheimer,
Judge,
Taube,
Blanchfield,
Swan,
&
Koh
(2010)
discuss
various
methods
for
caring
for
the
homeless
in
Boston,
New
York
through
the
Boston
Health
Care
For
Homeless
Program.
They
use
assisting
methods
such
as
shelters,
soup
kitchens,
and
a
104-
bed
medical
respite
unit.
The
literature
outlines
existing
community
outreach
and
urban
planning
methods
associated
with
homeless
shelter
and
social
service
locations.
It
is
shown
through
this
literature
that
sense
of
place
can
be
a
device
leading
to
the
publics
aspiration
to
help
the
poverty
in
the
city.
This
can
be
observed
and
assessed
amongst
the
public
in
different
municipalities.
From
the
sources
consulted,
it
is
evident
that
there
is
a
wide
variety
of
literature
discussing
the
two
themes
of
the
research
topic.
The
first
theme
was
the
effectiveness
of
cultural
infrastructure
planning
around
homeless
shelters,
and
the
second
theme
was
the
homeless
populations
influences
on
peoples
sense
of
place.
The
research
covered
a
sufficient
amount
of
information
related
to
the
research
question.
The
findings
throughout
the
literature
offer
a
stern
foundation
to
initiate
data
collection
on
the
topic
in
Peterborough,
Ontario,
and
a
subsequent
comparison
between
the
observation
results
and
the
literature.
Methodology
In order to highlight and assess the urban social and economic characteristics
resulting
from
homeless
activity
in
the
city,
I
shall
observe
the
land-use
and
social
environments
of
areas
within
approximately
400
metres
of
each
homeless
shelter
in
Peterborough,
Ontario.
Since
it
is
inappropriate
to
interview
homeless
people
for
ethical
reasons,
I
will
interview
various
Peterborough
residents
within
the
buffer
distance
to
gain
additional
information
on
the
positive
and
negative
factors
of
the
urban
planning
around
homeless
shelter
locations
and
the
daily
public
attitudes
and
satisfaction
of
the
health
of
the
community.
This
will
provide
data
displaying
the
positive
and
negative
urban
planning
practices
associated
with
the
locations
of
homeless
shelters
and
the
influences
these
practices
have
on
daily
public
satisfaction
of
the
area.
From
the
archives
of
spatial
data
available
at
Brock
University,
the
following
page
provides
a
map
created
in
ESRIs
ArGIS
displaying
the
400-metre
proximity
observation
areas
around
each
homeless
shelter
in
Peterborough.
Figure

on
the
following
page
presents
a
map
displaying
the
400-metre
proximity
observation
areas
around
each
homeless
shelter
in
Peterborough.

Figure

Study
Area
The
sample
of
participants
used
to
collect
data
will
be
a
selective
purposeful
sample
(Coyne,
1997).
Given
that
Canadians
legally
possess
their
right
to
vote
at
the
age
of
eighteen,
the
sample
will
incorporate
Peterborough
residents
who
are
at
least
eighteen
years
of
age
since
this
ensures
they
are
of
the
correct
age
to
discuss
political
topics
of
this
nature.
The
sample
will
also
involve
Peterborough
residents
who
state
they
dwell
around
the
observation
areas,
which
will
provide
sufficient
information
for
the
analysis
of
the
area.
I
shall
aim
to
collect
fifteen
surveys
per
day.
The
interview
will
be
designed
to
consume
no
more
than
20
minutes,
since
the
interview
process
should
not
take
up
too
much
of
the
interviewees
time
(Rezaeian,
2014).
Brock
Universitys
map
library
contains
spatial
data
of
various
Peterborough
infrastructures
such
as
roads,
parcels,
bus
stops,
etc.
This
data
can
be
used
in
ArcGIS
to
ultimately
make
maps.
ArcGIS
also
offers
many
tools
when
working
with
spatial
data.
A
useful
tool
in
this
case
is
the
buffer
tool
that
allows
the
user
to
create
a
file
to
visualize
a
desired
proximity
distance
around
a
given
feature
(ESRI,
2014).
After
collecting
the
latitude
and
longitude
coordinates
of
the
three
homeless
shelters
in
Peterborough,
I
will
plot
them
in
ArcGIS
and
apply
the
buffer
tool
to
create
400-metre
proximity
zone
visualizations
around
each
homeless
shelter
point.
I
will
then
print
these
maps
to
refer
to
when
interviewing
pedestrians.
These
maps
will
also
provide
a
reference
for
the
interview
participant
to
view
in
order
to
clarify
the
spatial
dimensions
of
the
study.
In
person,
I
will
subsequently
distribute
open-ended
questionnaires,
similar
to
the
style
of
a
semi-structured
standardized
open-ended
interview.
The
questionnaire
will
focus
on
three
areas.
First,
I
will
ask
citizens
questions
regarding
the
positive
and
negative
characteristics
of
the
city
around
each
homeless
shelter.
Second,
I
will
ask
questions
which
will
relate
to
characteristics
affecting
their
sense
of
place,
and
finally,
how
they
might
improve
the
area
to
make
it
more
friendly
for
the
public.
The
questions
will
also
be
designed
in
a
way
that
maintains
the
participants
confidentiality
and
anonymity
of
information,
to
which
it
may
apply.
For
example,
the
research
may
benefit
from
outlining
the
fact
that
an
interviewee
is
a
shopkeeper
or
a
homeless
shelter
supervisor
as
opposed
to
someone
who
is
a
simple
resident
living
in
the
area.
The
answers
from
each
person
would
provide
different
perspectives
to
take
into
consideration
when
analyzing
the
data
(Coyne,
1997).
When
assessing
the
number
of
residents
who
are
aware
of
nearby
homeless
shelters,
Jeffrey
Henig
(1994)
of
George
Washington
University
also
used
a
400-metre
proximity
measurement
around
homeless
shelters
in
Washington,
D.C.
The
nature
of
Henigs
research
is
similar
to
that
of
the
research
discussed
in
this
study,
which
is
why
observation
area
proximity
of
400
metres
will
be
used
as
a
foundation
to
assess
the
spatial
characteristics
of
homeless
shelter
locations.
Museus
(2014)
also
mentions
that
direct
observation
is
an
effective
qualitative
research
technique
because
it
presents
information
that
cannot
be
gained
through
the
filter
of
somebodys
conscious
attention
to
the
research
purposes.
In
the
context
of
this
research
project,
it
allows
for
the
observation
of
the
community
members,
the
quality
of
the
infrastructure,
and
the
human
behavior
of
the
area
as
a
whole.
An
open-ended
questionnaire
is
also
a
proper
method
for
researching
this
topic
because
it
deals
with
nominal
qualitative
information
that
is
best
collected
in
a
way
that
requires
investigation
and
oral
verification
to
make
sure
the
data
being
interpreted
is
accurate
and
sufficient
for
analyzing
results
(Phillips
&
Johns,
2012).
The
questions
will
be
10
open-ended
in
order
to
acquire
unanticipated
information
from
different
aspects
of
demographics
to
receive
the
greatest
range
of
qualitative
information
from
the
samples
(Turner,
2010).

Results
While in Peterborough, data was collected from a single urban planner, the two
homeless
shelter
supervisors,
and
a
total
of
twenty
shopkeepers
around
the
Brock
Mission/Youth
Emergency
Shelter
and
the
Cameron
House
areas.
Brad Appleby was the urban planner I consulted to gain information about the land-
use
designations
for
the
city
and
discover
how
the
homeless
shelters
were
incorporated
into
the
decision
making
process
for
the
citys
official
plan.
He
supplied
some
land-use
maps
and
legislation
that
described
the
land-use
designations
under
each
homeless
shelter
area,
along
with
some
information
on
group
homes
and
how
they
are
typically
associated
with
public-service
land-use.
Public
service
lots
designating
group
homes
also
include
the
following
types
of
establishments:
public
administration
buildings,
police
stations,
schools,
hospitals,
nursing
homes,
retirement
homes,
a
monastery,
convent
or
religious
establishment,
a
church,
or
a
place
of
assembly.
Group
homes
also
have
a
set
of
regulations
for
their
residents.
These
homes
are
single
residential
dwelling
units
which
house
3
to
10
youth
without
shelter
and/or
people
with
chronic
disabilities.
A
maximum
of
6
people
are
allowed
within
a
group
home
excluding
the
supervisory
staff
and
any
considerations
for
a
home
with
7
to
10
occupants
will
require
an
application
for
re-zoning.
Group
homes
do
not
include
family
or
boarding
houses,
lodging
houses,
or
foster
homes.
These
group
homes
are
also
distributed
so
that
there
is
at
least
300
metres
between
them
to
avoid
clustering.
Group
homes
are
also
regulated
to
accept
no
more
than
two
persons
convicted
under
the
Young
Offenders
Act
and
no
one
referred
from
a
correctional/detention
facility.
12
Unlike
group
homes,
emergency
shelters
like
the
Brock
Mission,
the
Youth
Emergency
Shelter,
and
the
Cameron
House
are
located
around
commercial
areas
that
also
regulate
dwelling
units.
Downtown
also
holds
many
amenities
that
attract
homeless
citizens.
The
Brock
Mission
and
Cameron
House
emergency
shelters
provide
fewer
services
to
youth
population
and
more
services
toward
the
adult
population
with
the
exception
of
the
Youth
Emergency
Shelter,
which
is
an
emergency
shelter
for
youth
rather
than
a
group
home.
Group
homes
suit
children
and
youth
in
care,
with
developmental
and
physical
disabilities,
experiencing
substance
abuse,
teenaged
mothers,
or
victims
of
domestic
violence
who
are
not
necessarily
homeless,
whereas
emergency
shelters
are
for
all
homeless
men
and
women.
While
Brad
was
not
able
to
answer
any
of
the
questions
on
the
questionnaire,
he
was
still
able
to
provide
applicable
background
information
on
the
nature
of
the
distribution
of
homeless
shelters
in
relation
to
the
other
types
of
land-use
surrounding
them,
as
well
as
sufficient
information
on
group
home
planning.
While
surveying
the
Brock
Mission
and
Youth
Emergency
Shelter
study
area,
the
supervisors
for
each
shelter
were
interviewed.
Wyatt
Lamoureux
is
the
supervisor
for
the
Youth
Emergency
Shelter,
which
houses
males
and
females
aged
16-24.
Wyatt
stated
that
the
downtown
commercial
zones
are
usually
more
suited
for
the
homeless
than
residential
areas.
He
also
said
that
landlords
needed
to
receive
more
financial
rewards
from
the
government
in
order
to
help
people
pay
more
affordable
rent,
since
that
was
a
major
factor
contributing
to
homelessness.
In
terms
of
peoples
sense
of
place,
he
says
he
agrees
some
people
think
homelessness
impacts
public
areas
like
public
parks
and
commercial
areas,
13
which
ultimately
contributes
to
a
negative
sense
of
place
amongst
the
community.
Wyatt
concluded
the
questionnaire
stating
eastern
Peterborough
was
his
preferred
area
of
the
city
to
live
in
since
it
contained
a
wealthier
demographic
and
the
landlords
were
not
trying
so
hard
to
rip
off
tenants.
Bill
McNabb
is
the
supervisor
for
the
Brock
Mission
and
the
Cameron
House
emergency
shelters.
Bill
said
the
Brock
Mission
was
a
40-bed
shelter
for
men
and
the
Cameron
House,
was
a
shelter
for
women.
Bill
reported
that
there
is
a
great
deal
of
violence
amongst
the
homeless
people
due
to
a
variety
of
reasons
such
as
childhood
trauma,
mental
health
issues
and
addictions.
In
terms
of
the
current
locations
of
the
homeless
shelters,
the
downtown
core
seemed
to
be
a
good
fit
in
Bills
opinion
since
it
covers
a
wide
range
of
facilities
that
benefit
the
needs
of
the
homeless.
The
locations
of
the
emergency
shelters
offer
a
wide
surrounding
of
commercial
land-use
with
just
enough
residential
land-use
around
to
make
the
tenants
feel
at
home.
Bill
said
that
he
would
like
to
incorporate
more
green
space
within
the
area
in
order
to
increase
the
aesthetics
of
the
area,
and
boost
the
overall
sense
of
place
for
the
shelter
tenants
as
well
as
the
surrounding
public.
Bill
also
mentioned
that
homeless
people
had
a
large
impact
on
public
areas
(e.g.
panhandling
in
millennium
park
in
Peterborough).
He
also
said
that
he
typically
has
seen
homeless
people
taking
shelter
around
places
like
bridges,
dumpsters,
railroad
tracks,
and
bus
shelters.
To
close,
Bill
said
his
preferred
area
of
the
town
is
the
Center-West
end
of
the
city
since
it
is
upscale,
close
to
downtown,
and
has
a
low
residential
density.
The
four
sides
of
the
city
mainly
consist
of
residential
suburban
areas
and
are
typically
populated
with
higher
socio-economic
classes
in
comparison
to
the
downtown
area.

When
I
surveyed
the
shopkeepers
around
the
Brock
Mission
and
Youth
Emergency
Shelter
study
area,
twelve
out
of
thirteen
shopkeepers
were
aware
of
the
two

existence
and
their
purposes.

In

the

of

knew
about

There
were
some
slight
variations
between
the
participant
questionnaire
responses
but
the
majority
of
the
answers
produced
clear
data
trends.
Amongst
the
shopkeepers
in
the
area,
half
of
them
felt
secure
in
their

and
half
of
them
felt
insecure
and
paranoid
about
the
homeless

system.

Group
homes
are
designated
to
residential
land-use
because
the
children
and
youth
with
disabilities
will
be
less
of
a
threat
to
residential
neighbors
than
everyday
homeless
citizens
that
may
instigate
and
panhandle.
Shopkeepers
said
that
the
main
issues
associated
with
homeless
people
in
the
community
were
violence,
loitering
outside
stores,
and
their
presence
discouraged
other
people
from
shopping.
Drugs
and
alcohol
on
the
streets
also
kept
customers
from
shopping
in
the
area,
which
affects
the
success
of
the
small
businesses.
The
downtown
area
allows
for
increased
mobility
in
the
winter
months
to
places
offering
warming
house
service
for
anyone
who
may
be
homeless.
The
publics
sense
of
downtown
also
restricts
the
types
of
customers
shopping
in
the
area.
For
example,
shopkeepers
mentioned
that
elderly
citizens
tend
to
stay
in
residential
areas
and
commute
to
small
commercial
plazas
to
shop
rather
than
travel
downtown.
Mobility
is
an
issue
for
them
and
they
may
feel
insecure
in
the
downtown
areas
due
to
possible
threats
of
violence
and/or
confrontations
involving
a
panhandler.
The
survey
participants
mentioned
that
they
were
happiest
around
outlying
areas
from
the
downtown
core
around
the
suburbs.
16
When the survey participants were asked about what they would improve about the
area,
there
were
some
useful
suggestions
and
opinions
that
will
be
discussed
in
the
next
section
of
the
report.
In
terms
of
the
Cameron
House
observation
area,
three
out
of
seven
knew
about
the
shelter
and
four
out
of
seven
did
not.
Figure

below
displays
this
percentage.

Given
the
smaller
sample
of
participants
in
this

there
were
still
a
significant
number
of
participants
who
did
not
know
about
the
shelter.
This
speaks
from
the
shelters

impact
on
the
residents
in
the
area
to
the
impacts
of
the
Brock
Mission
and
the
Youth

downtown.
I
observed
that
this
location
contained
a
significantly
fewer
number
of
homeless
people
wandering
the
area
when
compared
to
the
downtown
area
discussed
in
the
previous
section,
and
when
I
did
see
them,
they
were
women
asking
me
for
change
to
buy
food
like
coffee
and
sandwiches.
One
woman
looked
as
though
she
could
have
been
from
the
Cameron
House,
but
as
many
other
shopkeepers
also
mentioned,
it
is
often
hard
to
tell
and
it
would
be
unfair
to
judge
who
is
17
homeless
or
not.
The
people
surveyed
in
this
area
provided
slightly
different
answers
than
the
shopkeepers
from
the
previous
observation
area
downtown.
This
area
contained
less
homeless
people
than
the
downtown
area,
with
less
disturbances
and
violence.
Winter
is
the
only
peak
time
when
homeless
people
accumulate
at
the
Cameron
House
since
it
becomes
a
warming
house
as
well.
In

of

out
of

people,
three
felt

two

two

The
majority
of
people
felt
insecure
and
indicated
that

did
not

well
to
the

area
despite
the
decrease
in

compared
to

These
two
maps
display
how
the
residential
density
is
generally
low
around
homeless
shelters
in
addition
to
the
neighboring
commercial
land-use.
Interpretations
of
the
results
suggest
that
commercial
land-use
areas
are
generally
more
suited
towards
supporting
the
needs
of
the
homeless
population
while
the
rest
of
the
population
is
able
to
use
the
downtown
environment
for
economic
activities
and
commute
towards
the
suburbs
when
they
are
done
working
for
the
day.
The
shopkeepers
with
this
type
of
lifestyle
were
typically
older
middle-aged
adults
that
had
a
negative
sense
of
place
associated
with

since
they
enjoy
the
peacefulness
of
the

and
the
distinctive
higher
socio-economic
classes
abundant
within
them.

associated
with
downtown,
as
there
are
various
entertainment
sources,
which
seems
to
be
where
these
younger
individuals
enjoy
spending
their
time
particularly
in
the
evening
hours.
These
younger
shopkeepers
typically
ran
shops
and
bars
that
were
geared
more
towards
independence
and
creativity
rather
than
for
corporate
profit
and
lived
within
a
dwelling
unit
above
their
business
or
an
apartment
downtown.
This
seems
to
be
why
they
dont
feel
the

to

about

as
much
as

middle-aged

who
get

Unless
any

is
causing

to
someone

or
around

running

areas
were
happy
with
their
decisions
to
live
in
suburban

of
the
city
rather
than
downtown,
since
suburban
areas
usually
tend
to
be
geared
towards

This
means
that
the
demographic
profiles
of
the
society
members
are
mainly
homogenous,
whereas
the
society
members
downtown
are
more
heterogeneous,
and
can
result
in

While
the

panhandlers

Theme
Recollection
Characteristics
of
Cultural
Infrastructure
To
start,
Knack
(2008)
was
correct
in
stating
the
typical
planning
issues
that
need
to
be
addressed
are
the
need
for
shelter,
community
involvement,
social
conflict
and
resident
desire
for
peaceful
neighborhoods.
Parashiv
(2013)
was
also
correct
in
stating
that
the
property
types
were
a
key
factor
to
consider
in
the
research
since
commercial
and
residential
property
types
showed
a
difference
in
types
of
cultural
infrastructure
and
sense
of
place.
The
research
findings
collaborate
with
the
findings
of
Lobao
&
Murray
(2005)
in
regards
to
the
allocation
of
homeless
shelters
and
homeless
individuals
within
commercial
areas
containing
denser
populations
throughout
the
day,
and
less
towards
residential
land-
23
use.
In
the
case
of
the
Cameron
House,
the
shelter
was
located
near
a
large
residential
area,
but
was
also
primarily
located
near
the
commercial
plaza
containing
amenities
like
food
banks
and
employment
development
services
that
are
easily
accessible
to
the
homeless
residents
at
he
Cameron
House.
Even
though
group
homes
are
typically
found
in
residential
areas,
the
other
types
of
land-use

to
be
established
under

code
are
associated
with
generally

land-uses
that
tend
to
cause
no
problems
for
the
community.
The
group
home
regulations
discussed
in
the
previous
section
show
how
group
homes
are
more
suited
for
residential
areas
since
they
are
within
a
more
controlled
environment.
In
reference
to
Donovan
and
Shinseki
(2013),
the
increased
incorporation
of
mental
health
facilities
around
the
city
was
a
topic
of
interest
amongst
the
interviewed
shopkeepers.
Mental
health
facilities
tended
to
be
best
associated
with
areas
containing
high
commercial
land-use,
for
the
same
reasons
the
homeless
shelters
are
best
located
in
commercial
areas.
The
downtown
commercial
area
offers
more
amenities
and
accessibility
to
services
for
the
homeless
if
needed.
Relating
to
Youngs
(2012)
study
on
the
publics
distaste
for
nearby
therapeutic
facilities
in
residential
areas,
a
mental
health
facility
located
in
a
residential
area
could
cause
a
NIMBY
(Not

My

Yard)
issue
with
surrounding
residents,
which
involves
the
issue
of
developing
a
certain
type
of
cultural
infrastructure
so
close
to
a
residential
area
that
it
would
generate
complaints
(e.g.
too
much
noise,
the
appearance
of
a
building,
the
types
of
demographics
a
building
might
attract
to
an
area,
etc.).

In
terms
of

areas,
and
Wasserman
and
Clairs
(2011)

on

amongst
homeless
and
non-homeless
populations
in
residential
areas,
the
results
of
the
research
conducted
in
Peterborough
contradict
the
mentality
for
developing
homeless
shelters
around
residential

shelter
and
the
Youth
Emergency
Shelter
are
both
located
around
downtown
commercial
areas,
the
all-
female
Cameron
House
shelter
is
located
in
an
area
that
is
mainly
residential
with
the
exception
of
small
commercial
plazas.
While
interviewing
shopkeepers
in
the
Cameron
House
shelter
observation
area,
I
discovered
that
even
though
the
Cameron
House
is
surrounded
by
residential
land-use,
the
women
residing
within
the
Cameron
House
still
venture
around
the
commercial
areas,
scavenging
for
any
additional
resources
from
the
shopkeepers.
This
irritates
the
shopkeepers
around
the
commercial
areas
as
well
as
the
shopkeepers
who
live
in
residential
areas
nearby,
who
experience
panhandlers
roaming
the
areas
they
call
home,
as
opposed
to
downtown
where
many
people
only
primarily
work.
A
positive
aspect
of
the
Cameron
Houses
location
is
that
it
maintains
a
more
transparent
barrier
between
the
homeless
and
residential
populations
within
the
local
community,
whereas
downtown
is
where
this
cultural
divide
is
more
evident,
due
to
the
diversity
of
services
and
people
that
are
dependent
on
the
economic
integrity
of
the
area.
Even
though
the
residential
environment
may
be
more
peaceful
than
the
downtown
core
in
the
Cameron
Houses
case,
it
is
still
associated
with
domestic
disputes
that
can
be
related
back
to
the
homeless
shelter
activity
in
the
area,
as
well
as
the
commuting
of
the
shelter
residents
into
the
nearby
commercial
areas
to
scavenge
for
any
resources
from
the
shopkeepers.
25
In
terms
of
the
data
acquired
from
the
shopkeepers
in
the
Cameron
House
area,
the
urban
environment
of
the
downtown
core
would
generally
make
a
more
suitable
environment
for
the
homeless
population,
despite
the
advantage
of
the
increased
anonymity
of
homeless
people
within
residential
areas
to
increase
their
mental
health
progression.
This
is
due
to
the
more
homogenous
cultural
infrastructure
within
the
environment,
and
the
general
increase
in
socio-economic
classes,
which
comes
with
fewer
social
issues
than
in
the
downtown
area.
Sense
of
Place
As
previously
mentioned
through
Vandemark
(2007)
in
the
literature
review,
the
publics
sense
of
place
has
proved
to
be
an
important
characteristic
in
this
research.
In
reference
to
Goodhearts
(2014)
point
on
the
impact
of
religion
on
a
communitys
sense
of
place,
shopkeepers
in
Peterborough
said
that
some
of
the
churches
in
Peterborough
offer
food
programs
for
the
homeless
downtown.
Some
churches
also
act
as
warming
homes
for
the
homeless
during
the
winter
months
as
well.
The
cultural
aspects
of
the
citys
religious
communities
contribute
to
the
revitalization
of
the
city.
Others
such
as
the
YWCA
(Young
Womens
Christian
Association),
Food
Not
Bombs,
methadone
clinics
and
substance
abuse/addiction
services
are
available
throughout
the
commercial
areas
of
the
city
to
help
the
development
of
a
positive
sense
of
place,
which
will
ultimately
lead
to
a
healthier
community.
The
allocations
of
the
three
homeless
shelters
outside
the
inner-city
core
collaborate
well
with
the
content
in
Louis
du
Toits
(2010)
study
on
the
locations
of
urban
homeless
shelters.
Many
of
the
shopkeepers
in
Peterborough
associate
their
preferred
26
areas
of
the
city
with
areas
located
towards
the
fringes
of
the
city
with
higher
residential
income,
and
contain
a
quieter
environment.
In
reference
to
Brown-Luthango,
Makanga,
Smit
(2013)
and
Galvis
(2014)
view
on
peoples
cultural
bias
on
the
homeless
population
within
public
areas,
I
observed
that
the
younger
shopkeepers
tended
to
show
less
concern
over
loitering
homeless
people
within
the
commercial
district
of
Peterborough
than
the
shop
keepers
who
were
senior
citizens,
which
is
understandable
since
elderly
people
tend
to
be
less
fit
to
deal
with
any
violence
that
they
may
encounter.
Downtowns
association
with
negative
events
renders
it
to
be
of
the
least
quality
amongst
the
majority
of
the
surveyed
shopkeepers
in
both
areas.
The
majority
chose
areas
around
the
fringe
of
the
city
when
asked
about
their
favorite
areas.
They
chose
these
areas
because
of
the
suburban
infrastructure,
high
income
and
gemeinschaft-like
communities,
whereas
downtown
is
more
of
a
gesellschaft
community
where
people
tend
to
distrust
one
another
and
everyone
is
treated
as
a
stranger.
The
younger
downtown
shopkeepers
preferred
the
downtown
area
to
the
suburbs,
since
there
were
more
commercial
stores
and
restaurants,
coincidentally
where
homeless
people
tend
to
panhandle.
Since the research for this topic was culturally and socially biased to North
American
standards
and
planning
practices,
it
would
beneficial
to
examine
areas
around
homeless
shelters
in
other
municipalities
to
see
how
land-use
and
sense
of
place
differ
from
Peterborough
based
upon
any
additional
cultural/planning
information
that
cannot
be
examined
within
the
cultural
confines
of
central
Ontario.
Working
within
the
boundaries
27
of
common
public
city
planning
knowledge,
the
shopkeepers
provided
various
suggestions
for
gentrifying
the
downtown
area.
Participants
provided
various
gentrification
suggestions
in
the
sense
that
the
residents
of
the
downtown
Peterborough
area
wanted
to
improve
aesthetics
and
increase
the
police
patrol.
Other
requests
consisted
of
adding
more
grocery
stores
and
other
commercial
land-use
to
increase
the
economic
development
for
storeowners.
Shopkeepers
in
both
areas
also
mentioned
various
community
involvement
programs
used
to
increase
the
wellbeing
of
the
community,
which
would
in
turn
reduce
the
number
of
homeless
people
in
their
community.
The
city
should
implement
more
effective
police
supervision
and
more
suitable
lighting
at
night
to
enable
people
to
feel
safe
without
the
worry
of
being
robbed
or
assaulted.
Second,
the
focus
should
turn
to
solving
the
problems
of
drug
and
alcohol
abuse
by
tightening
restrictions
on
alcohol
distribution
from
bartenders.
8Alcohol
and
drug
abuse
highly
contributes
to
the
homeless
state
of
being
and
make
it
difficult
to
rise
and
improve
their
living
conditions.
More
effective
drug
and
alcohol
supervision
programs
should
be
implemented
to
try
and
control
the
matter.
Increased
police
presence
to
control
the
drug
trafficking
trade
would
limit
the
connections
these
homeless
people
to
obtain
drugs.
Finally,
the
participants
thought
the
city
should
also
look
to
maintain
sufficient
green
space
throughout
the
city
which
would
in
turn
to
maintain
a
healthy
appearance
and
increase
the
number
of
residents
shopping
and
doing
business
in
the
downtown
area.
28
Conclusion
The
natural
place
of
attraction
for
many
homeless
individuals
typically
tends
to
be
towards
the
downtown
area,
where
there
are
usually
high
population
densities
during
long
periods
of
time
and
more
amenities
for
them
to
access.
Cities
should
aim
to
plan
towards
keeping
homeless
shelters
downtown,
since
this
keeps
the
homeless
shelter
residents
close
to
downtown
resources,
and
easy
accessibility
to
non-recruited
homeless
citizens.
Residential
areas
are
suited
more
towards
group
home
members
who
are
typically
individuals
who
have
mental/physical
disabilities
and
are
not
suited
to
live
independently.
Though
mental
health
is
a
topic
also
involved
in
homelessness,
commercial
areas
are
still
more
suited
toward
the
nature
of
the
homeless
people
downtown
rather
than
to
the
residents
of
group
homes,
who
are
only
moved
from
one
residence
to
another
because
they
cannot
be
taken
care
of
by
their
primary
caregiver.
Even
though
group
homes
are
not
necessarily
an
example
of
homelessness,
they
are
still
a
clear
example
of
the
sense
of
place
dynamics
associated
with
a
citys
land-use.
In
addition
to
the
gentrification
recommendations
discussed
in
the
previous
section
of
the
report,
residential
areas
are
generally
more
peaceful
areas,
which
many
people
who
work
within
downtown
Peterborough
greatly
consider
the
worse
part
of
the
city
compared
to
the
suburban
fringes.
The
people
within
the
suburban
fringes
have
a
more
positive
sense
of
place
because
of
the
higher
socio-economic
demography,
and
more
peaceful
access
to
commercial
stores
within
small
plazas,
even
though
homelessness
can
be
still
be
an
issue
in
these
areas
as
well,
as
seen
through
the
shopkeepers
in
Peterborough,
Ontario.
