I’m writing from Friday Harbor to specific concern concerning the lack of reasonably priced housing within the San Juan Islands.
Many native staff — lecturers, nurses, service workers — battle to search out locations to reside as a result of so many houses at the moment are trip leases. That is hurting our neighborhood. Companies can’t preserve workers, and households are being pushed out. We want stronger guidelines for short-term leases and extra reasonably priced housing help earlier than the scenario worsens.
