Action
petitioned for:
We,
the undersigned, are concerned citizens of East Fishkill who urge our leaders
to act now and decline the Special Permit for the construction of a 68 unit
affordable apartment complex which will include low income housing at 672 Route
82, Joe’s Mothers Road. If you share our concerns about our community please
sign below to voice your opposition to this project.
Why are you really petitioning this complex ? Are you worried it will bring down the market value of your homes ? Do you think that these people are criminals /lowlifes/unemployed and may tarnish the prestige of your koolaid neighborhoods ? Low income does not mean low quality.
