The feedback I have received from residents of the 500 block underscores the significant uncertainty regarding their housing security. I am currently preparing formal remarks to present before the planning commission to ensure our concerns remain part of the public record.

The momentum surrounding our protest against Ordinance 1449 confirms that the community values the stability of the Warren Street neighborhood. This collective response demonstrates that residents are unwilling to accept the displacement of our neighbors for the sake of luxury development. We will ensure the Planning Commission understands the gravity of our opposition.

This is ridiculous. 350k for a condo? Nobody who actually lives and works in this town can afford that. Stop kicking people out of their homes just to build more overpriced housing for people who dont care about the community.
BLACKSBURG IS LOSING ITS CHARM. ENOUGH WITH THE CONDOS.
How do they pre-lease before council even votes? That sounds like a crooked deal to me. Leave the residents alone.
So many families are going to lose their homes because of this. Totally unfair.
Warren Street has been fine exactly how it is for years. Leave it alone.

The greed is unreal. We dont need another luxury complex that sits half empty half the year. Save our neighborhood!
