Below is a statement regarding the Safe Bay IUP at Vineyard Church:
An interim use permit (IUP) for an interim outdoor living site was approved for Safe Bay at the Vineyard Church on May 13 by the Duluth Planning Commission. Safe Bay began operation shortly after and continued operation until an attorney representing neighbors filed an appeal with the Duluth City Clerk on May 21. Per Chapter 50 of the Duluth City Code, any appeal requires a stay of use until the appeal is heard by City Council. The appeal will be held at the earliest opportunity at a special meeting by City Council on Thursday, June 5.
