Petition against proposed land transfers

To:  Durham City Council

I, the undersigned, a resident of Durham, hereby object to the proposed land transfers to Dominion Ministries, who plan to build a Level IV Residential Treatment Facility for severely disturbed youth at in the 200 block of North Dillard Street, and to Housing for New Hope, who plan to build ten efficiency units for the formerly homeless with a history of mental illness/substance abuse issues, on Roxoboro and Elliott. The City failed to contact both the neighborhood and interested parties prior to disposing of the above property.
I ask that the City instead work with the Cleveland-Holloway neighborhood to create a neighborhood plan that will address issues of concern to the community: crime, boarded up homes, and the need for useful services that will help strengthen this historic neighborhood, and, in turn, benefit the overall revitalization of Durham.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
