The sense of community we cherish in our neighborhood is being undermined by financial strains that are affecting many of our members, including my own family. Currently, the live-in fee exceeds what most members can comfortably afford, putting an unnecessary burden on our community's hardworking families. This issue hits home for me as it directly impacts our ability to manage household expenses and maintain a balanced family life.

I am writing this petition to call for a formal meeting where we can discuss and vote on lowering the live-in fee to a more manageable amount of $100. This change would ease the financial burden on many families, helping us to preserve the community spirit that we all value.

It's important to note that many households are struggling to meet everyday expenses due to increasing costs of living, including housing, and groceries. Recent data from Kentucky's financial surveys indicate that an increasing number of families are finding it difficult to make ends meet, with discretionary spending decreasing significantly over the past years. This live-in fee exacerbates those challenges by adding an additional financial strain.

We believe a reduction in the fee is both reasonable and necessary to ensure that all members can continue to participate fully and without financial stress in our community activities. Lowering the fee will not only foster a more inclusive environment but also encourage more engagement and cooperation among members, ensuring our community remains strong and united.

I urge all members of the corporation to consider the broader implications of the current live-in fee and support our call for a democratic vote. Let's come together to ensure that our community remains a place where every family can thrive.

Please join me in this cause to advocate for a more financially sustainable community by signing this petition. Your signature can make a significant difference in showing that there is strong support for this change. 

We are requesting the meeting beheld within 14 days of turning this petition into the office.
