The city of Ottawa is working to establish what’s known as a sprung structure that serves as both a temporary shelter and a centre to provide settlement services such as language training and employment assistance.

The city has identified two potential locations for these centres, both in the city's west end.

The first proposed location was cancelled following significant resident pushback.

The Peel region in the Greater Toronto Area opened a similar facility earlier this month to address the same issues.

The Mississauga centre is based in a former four -storey office park, which the Peel region signed a 10-year -lease on earlier this year to act as a refugee reception centre.

The Ottawa Hospital currently uses a sprung structure to accommodate overflow with their emergency response centre.
