Mayor Matt Wren wants to make it clear that the United Counties of Leeds Grenville and the City of Brockville are not the same entity.
He also voiced concerns about a recent decision to put a warming shelter at 55 Reynolds Drive, saying he believes it was the wrong choice.
Wren set a few things straight about the situation.
The mayor also criticized the decision to stop funding the Cooperative Care Centre on December 31, saying it was especially concerning as winter weather sets in.
Wren stressed that the city and the counties need to work together more effectively when making decisions that affect vulnerable residents.
His comments come as local leaders continue to debate the best ways to provide support during the winter months.
