145th Street Station Citizens Committee (145SCC). We will review where the City is in the process of the rezone of the station area, including the 145th Multimodal Corridor Study.
I can't wait for them to rip down the junky homes around 145th for the light rail station. We so need this refresh on a blighted area.
ReplyDeleteThose homes are our neighborhood. There are no "junky" homes here. Sorry if our lives, families, and tight-knit community are in the way of your new mixed use box with a Walgreens and yoga studio. If you don't like our home, stay away from them. We pay taxes.
ReplyDeleteSeriously! Who are these trolls who think thousands of residents and homeowners are dispensible? You are talking about real people, who work, pay taxes and vote and have just a much right to live here as you do, Anan 1/8, 2:48.
ReplyDeleteThe City has made a serious mistake in thinking we are throw-away people. Folks who live in the Rezone areas have every right to be outraged. We are following the process and pushing back at every opportunity.
The streets of Intention are paved with gold.
ReplyDeleteAffordable housing communties are not. If looks are more appealing to you and lessen your understanding of others feel free to leave. The city doesn't tax your departure.
Gee! Where I have heard the comment about "junky homes" before. 1) a former planning commissioner, or 2) a citizen's committee member
ReplyDeleteAre the developers giving you ladies some kick backs for your cheerleading of displacement, demolition, and destruction?
