ITEM NO,;-�.�
From: Kari Ann Applegate < =RECEivEIDSent: Monday, May 22, 2017 4:04 PMTo: Advisory BodiesI support Workforce Housing
Dear Planning Commission:
I urge you to support the San Luis Ranch project because if you work here, you should be able to live
here. We are losing great young professionals and families, not only to neighboring cities, but to other
parts of the country. If we want our business to continue to thrive, they need access to wonderful
employees, who need to be able to afford homes. The diverse range of affordable and workforce housing
can begin to put a dent in the supply we so desperately need!
I am one of those young professionals. I am a 36 -year-old early childhood educator with a masters
degree in education. I live with roommates. It's not my ideal situation but it's what I can afford, even in
the rental market, here in this town that I've called home for over 15 years. I have more stories to share
from others like me Wednesday night who can't make the meeting because of work obligations or child
care concerns. See you Wednesday!
Sincerely,
Kari Applegate
