1. It's dangerous. This Kirkland homeless hotel (when it opens this summer) is literally 100 yards from 3 schools and various businesses including #EastsidePrep, @BurgerMaster and @KinderCare, and within 1.5 miles of about a dozen other schools. Is this really the best location for a homeless facility that will require no drug testing, no treatment and have no real on-site supervision?
This week @INRIX signed a lease which will move us out of Kirkland which has been our home for the past 18 years.
Why? @KirklandGov made a decision to put a homeless hotel right across the street from our current HQ, in the backyard of #EastsidePrep and next door to @Burgermaster. No drug testing required, no treatment required and no real supervision on-site. Where this experiment has happened before in King County, crime rates have risen since according to reliable data, 70%+ of homelessness is the result of drug addiction and/or mental health issues (@choeshow, @DiscoveryInst1).
When I attended the City Council meeting to speak out on this issue, @KirklandGov refused to let anyone speak.
A previous mayor once told me years ago that INRIX was the 5th largest employer in @Kirkland. I have no idea what we are now (we've grown), but bad public policy has consequences. Employers can move. We are. If a local government won't listen to it's citizens and/or employers, they will probably find other places to locate.
