This petition is to have your say against the development of a Homeless
Shelter on the King County property located at 14350 SE Eastgate Way
Bellevue, WA.The location raises a number of concerns in our community:
1. Per section 5 of FAQ - Site Location ( FAQ - Site Location) one of
the factors taken into consideration for selecting the Eastside
Men’s Shelter is avoiding single family residential areas. The fact that
town home condos occupied by hundreds of families many with young children
are located within a few hundred feet of the proposed facility should be
considered in the selection of the site.
2. Impact of property value. Eastgate is a prosper neighborhoods and without
any doubt addition of the shelter is going to have adverse impact on
property value. Per realtor.com homeless shelter can drag down property
values by 12% (The Neighborhood Features That Drag Down Your Home Value)
3. The proposed shelter, will be a low barrier shelter and will
accommodate people with mental health, addiction and sex offenses. In
addition to our concerns for the safety of the residents of the neighborhood
, we are concerned for the safety of the students of
Bellevue College. Every year more than 30,000 students, majority female and
as young as 16 years of age enroll in Bellevue College which is located
within a few hundred feet of the proposed site. We believe such a close
proximity puts the safety of the students at risk. |
