The Columbia City Council heard concerns about a shelter in the downtown area at its meeting Monday night.

Members of The Downtown Community Improvement District (CID) shared a letter about proposed recommendations to the shelter at the Wabash Bus Station.

In the letter to council members, Downtown CID Executive Director Nickie Davis wrote the emergency shelter has created a "hostile environment for our businesses, their customers and residents."
