Both facilities are being purchased with the county’s American Rescue Plan Act funding.
“Communities across Snohomish County have made clear that stabilizing and supporting our vulnerable residents is a top priority,” said Somers. “I’m glad the County Council acted with urgency to finalize these two hotel purchases. This expansion in bridge housing and services will make Snohomish County a better and safer place for everyone to live, work, and play.”
Prior to announcing the plans to purchase the Days Inn facility last week, the county announced the Shelter & Behavioral Health Partnership Program, which will add units to house about 36 people, among other housing and behavioral health projects.
