For the past 26 years, our family has lived peacefully on our property in Columbia Falls, MT, without any disturbance. This has always been our haven, a place we've cherished and nurtured since birth. Recently, things have changed dramatically with the establishment of "Share Shack," placed on Highway 206.

The intention behind the Share Shack was noble – a spot for tourists and travelers passing through to drop off unused items for others on their journeys. However, the lack of proper signage and address marking has led to an endless stream of confusion. People frequently turn onto our property, thinking they have found the right location, only to mistakenly rummage through our shed, believing it to be part of the Share Shack.

This unexpected intrusion into our personal space disrupts our daily lives and undermines our sense of security. This isn't just a mere inconvenience; it's a growing concern that must be addressed promptly. The Share Shack's original purpose was thwarted once before, leading to its relocation to our neighborhood. Now, it’s time for it to find a more suitable place again, away from residential areas.

The primary audience meant for the Share Shack are travelers, not locals or individuals who might misuse the honor system. The constant misdirection by GPS and maps further exacerbates the issue, misleading people into neighborhoods rather than a designated tourist-friendly area.

We propose moving the Share Shack to a location that serves its intended purpose without compromising the safety and privacy of local residents. Ideal sites might include public tourist-friendly locales along major highways where signage can effectively guide travelers without intrusion into private properties.

We need your support to make this change and restore the peace in our neighborhood. Repositioning the Share Shack is essential for the well-being and security of our community. Please sign this petition to help us safeguard our homes. Your voice can lead to the protection of our neighborhood’s integrity and our personal peace of mind. Join us in our effort for a sensible relocation of the Share Shack.
