Warming Center Public Comment from Amanda Murphy I am Amanda S I reside in Kalispell, Mannigton and Whitefish stage I am in support of rescinding the permit for the warming center. It has violated the promises they have made that it would not adversely affect the community. Even in the speech the director (Horn) of the warming center gave at public comment- “I have noticed that there has been more hostility towards the homeless from our community members” In her own words- is that not an adverse affect to our neighborhood? It is affecting us all. I was born and raised in Kalispell. Lived here 40 years. I’m so disappointed in how our valley has changed. My husband serves this community as a law enforcement officer/911 dispatcher. It is not law enforcement responsibility to have to respond to these continuous calls of nonsense that their hands are tied. I can’t go walking in parks/streets my elderly mother as we get approached by homeless people asking for money or spitting at us when we give them nothing. I can’t allow my 13 year old son to walk to his friends house alone as I am afraid for his safely. As I have lived here and grown up here, this is something that I treasured and looked forward to raising my son in an area that this was possible. But it isn’t any more. Driving in town having to see public drunk ness and drug use, and solicitation is unacceptable. My office (a pediatric practice) in north Kalispell has consistent feces on the sidewalk. And children pass this. Please consider revoking the permit. Let them reapply with a better plan for our community. It’s not just about them- it is about our community as a whole. Our children especially Thank you Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.onelink.me%2F107872968%3Fpid%3Dnativeplacement%26c%3DGlobal_Acquisition_YMktg_315_Internal_Emai lSignature%26af_sub1%3DAcquisition%26af_sub2%3DGlobal_YMktg%26af_sub3%3D%26af_sub4%3D100000604%26af_sub5%3DEmailSignature__Static_&data=05%7C02%7Cabrunckhorst%40kalispell.com%7C847f83b2622f44db7bbf08 dc73c4badc%7C6219d736f71146359cbaff616a81b398%7C1%7C0%7C638512536008748670%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C80000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=yODrXbx40A Mhw77vTQe%2BeSseYPcnMBrydpCpKThdydM%3D&reserved=0>
