Housing not warehouses Lakewood! And Pierce County council!
This housing crisis has zero fix county wide. Lakewood has a very large portion of the county’s pending displaced families.
It’s disgusting how little attention this is receiving, but thank God Lakewood got 2 Dutch Bros and a Chick Fil A now?!

Dani says
Sonia,
Any update on your relocation assistance from the city? Where are officials offering to help displaced folks move to?
Appreciate any new info.

I live down the street from where, the woodbrook school use to be. I understand as a renter myself, the need for housing for low wage earners, folks on section 8, and fixed income. However, l welcome the jobs and career opportunity these logistic centers will bring to this community. I have lived here going on eight years, in one of the apartment complex across from several old and run down trailer parks. The trash and funiture thrown in the streets as people move in and out these units is unacceptable. So yes I for one vote for more businesses to build here. While raising the standard of living in a section of Lakewood that was rotting and wasting away. Thanks ??
Dani says
Great points. I’m just not sure where the improved affordable housing is in the City of Lakewood’s plan?
You mention section 8 areas. I was more thinking of townhomes that could be bought but not rented.
It would be night to have things better planned out, not piece mealed like Lakewood continues to do.
Lakewood can’t have expensive housing, minimum wage jobs galore, and expect the community members to have any disposable income left over at the end of each month to spend in Lakewood businesses.
It’s greed over sound economics.
