Mayor Mark,
I'm curious if you're planning on leading this community through the tough times ahead. It
might be wise to contact the local news network and the papers and advise our community tostay safe and practice good hygiene. Stop hoarding and price gouging. Stop looting and stick
together as a community. Be good neighbors.
I know it's been said all over the national and state news, but local leaders are expected to stepup, in times of need, and LEAD the community. It means a lot more to the public when it
comes from someone local, someone they actually know.
It's already getting bad out there. Shelves are empty, schools are closing and a liquor store inKalispell was burglarized Saturday night just to get Everclear. The Hardware Store in
Evergreen is charging $3.50 for a 1oz bottle of hand sanitizer.
I hope you're ready to step up.
Best regards,
Jake Hoover
