Snohomish County Council gave the final green light to purchase two hotels, the Days Inn in Everett and the America’s Best Value Inn in Edmonds.
The purchase will be made through the Shelter & Behavioral Health Partnership Program, which is utilizing $9 million from the federal American Rescue Plan Act .
All residents will have access to services at the hotels to help them find jobs and long-term housing, including food, hygiene, employment opportunities, legal services, and mental health and substance use disorder resources. Now that the official purchase has been approved by the council, an extensive on-site assessment is the next step to determine what renovations need to be made in order to get the facility up and running to serve the community.
