<br />H. TEMPORARY HOUSING WORKSHEET <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Purpose <br /> <br />Help people find housing after the emergency shelters have closed and before damaged <br />h.ousing is repaired or replaced. <br /> <br />Materials <br /> <br />. Number of people needing emergency shelter <br />. Base map <br />. Community plan and zoning map <br /> <br />Steps <br /> <br />1. Review your estimate of shelter population needs. From this information and your <br />general knowledge of the income, ethnicity, age, and special needs of the community's <br />population, estimate the number of households needing temporary housing. As a rule <br />of thumb, you can assume that about 10 percent of the shelter population will need <br />assistance with suitable temporary housing. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />2. Identify on the base map apartment buildings, hotels, and motels which were not <br />flooded and are likely to have vacant units which could be used to meet part of the <br />need for temporary housing (yellow). <br /> <br />3. Select sites with suitable infrastructure to be used for trailers or prefab housing, <br />considering that the selected sites could continue to be used for housing after the need <br />for temporary housing has passed. Outline the selected temporary housing sites in <br />yellow on the base map. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />21 <br />
