Subject: EXTERNAL Fairbridge Inn & Suites Tenant
Hello. My name is Virginia Young. My husband and I live in room 421 at the Fairbridge Inn and Suites and have been here
over 8 years.
WE NEED HELP. Less than 30 days to find a home in the dead of winter where there is absolutely NO limited income
housing is not fair.
99% of us, including me, are hard workers just trying to keep a roof over our heads. We do not make KALISPELL MONEY
FOR THE RIDICULOUS KALISPELL RENT.
Others are parents with children, retired or disabled Vets and people that have called this place home, like me, for years
because it's the only affordable place we all can find.
Just because we live here does not mean we are drug addicts or alcoholics or thieves, or whatever label you all believe us
to be.
We are human beings just trying to survive. Just trying to NOT become homeless. We have no other choice BUT to call
Fairbridge our home.
Why can't this building stay and we still rent and live here while they turn the main building into apartments? The income
is about $45000 per month alone just in our rent!
Then give us the opportunity to move in as tenants? Would that not be a smart thing to do to help us?
