The city has put in new comfy chairs and coffee tables next to computer terminals in city hall through a pilot project that aims to make the space inviting for citizens.
But Ald. Andre Chabot tells The Calgary Sun he’s concerned it could attract unwanted loiterers, adding if he were homeless, that’s where he would go.
The computer terminals and the furniture cost the city about $70,000.
The pilot project runs for a year.
