This is too simplistic. The resident should be provided with cable access so 
he may view da Vinci's Inquest re-runs. Food could be provided by the 
Portland Hotel Society. But since housing is a split responsibility between 
senior levels of government, a special inter-governmental agreement might be 
necessary unless some city funds could be redirected. He'd need a bed pan 
and urinal, too, of course, and an oxygen tank. But without a door the 
delivery of food and pick-up of waste would be a problem. A hatch, 
controlled from the outside, may be required. Monitoring of behaviour could 
be carried out with a surveillance camera affixed to the ceiling of the box. 
This monitoring would allow operators to ensure he remains in good health. 
The question of whether or not to supply an electrical outlet for additional 
appliances would be one that city staff should investigate. Then there is 
the problem of deciding whether guest fees should be charged for his 
visitors. If the enclosure is sound-proof some sort of sonic transmission 
device would have to be installed in order for these visitors to communicate 
with him unless the food/waste hatch is made dual-purpose. But on the other 
hand having visitors may not be in the best interests of his health at this 
time. That decision could be left up to the Vancouver Coastal Health 
Authority or one of its subsidiaries.
