The emergency centre was originally located at the Edmonton Expo Centre, but was moved to the Clareview Community Recreation Centre on Sept. 11, after a re-entry plan was announced for Northwest Territory residents.
Over 7,500 people and 1,300 pets had registered at the centre since Aug. 18, according to the city.
The city also supposed the evacuees with re-entry flights, public transportation and recreational activities.
The emergency centre is set to close on Monday Sept. 18 at 7 p.m.
