Dear Mayor Andrus and City Commission,
I am writing in support of the budget amendment that will provide a $75,000 impact fee
reimbursement to Haven. As a member of Haven's Board of Directors, I know how important
Haven's work is in the community. The City has been a valued partner in moving forward
Haven's mission and in building a new shelter for survivors of intimate partner violence.
With 30 bedrooms and 40 beds for survivors and their children, Haven's new facility will help
the City achieve its goal of providing 5,800 affordable housing units. It will provide a safe,
welcoming place for survivors to heal and rebuild their support networks. Thank you for your
consideration.
Mike Van Vuren
