Save Our Hoods

We don't believe these are housing advocates, marching to the mayor's house. Housing advocates know this will be devastating for the cause of housing Bellingham's homeless.
Please continue to support affordable housing and the homeless in ways that help.

Homeless advocates, neighbors clash at Bellingham mayor’s home Bellingham Occupied Protest had called on social media for people to meet at noon at Lowell Elementary School to march to Fleetwood’s home.

Single Family and Multi Family terms define Bellingham's residential zoning. Should 'Family' be anyone who lives under the same roof, or should it stay as is (legally defined, with only 3 unrelateds).
If redefined well, Bellingham can become more inclusive and a better place to live for everyone.
If a new definition allows chaos in zoning, Bellingham could become another 'coulda been great' town.
Time to get involved! It doesn't take much and your opinion matters. Speak at tonight's Planning Commission meeting, or send a letter!

Unintended consequences...
The Three Unrelated living together rule is not to make living hard on young and old, single or non traditional.
Among other things, it is to control slumlords and the dangerous living situations they place residents in.
please at least build in some precautions. Blanket policy never works.
