Stop the Proposed Halfway House at 2317 Shaw Road, Puyallup, WA 98374

The Issue

The proposed halfway house would house up to 20 recently released felons, including Level 1 and 2 sex offenders. This property is zoned single family and is directly across from Celebration Friends Preschool. It is within a 1-2 mile vicinity of Shaw Road Elementary, Wildwood Elementary and Sunrise Elementary. There are many licensed day cares in the immediate vicinity. The property does not have access to a bus line or commercial areas for employment.   Placing a halfway house in the middle of a residential neighborhood and within such close proximity of schools and daycares is both dangerous and irresponsible.
