# 1
IS IT TRUE…

# 2
IS IT TRUE…
…that it was the state funding that limited care to night time operations only?
# 3
IS IT TRUE…
…that state funding demands the shelter accept people from any place of origin? If true, should we forgo state funds and fund a municipal shelter for the people of Barnstable only, encouraging all towns to take care of their own Neighbors In Need?
