Shame on the Mayor, Ward Councillor, former Councillor, and Community Development Director.
Public letters from officials were shared with us today by an anonymous person.
Considering an HUGE neighborhood opposition exists with petitions of 97% of the signatories living in the ward, Mayor Judith Flanagan Kennedy and Ward 4 Councillor Colucci AND Community Development Director Jamie Marsh sent letters of support to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a project consisting of 5-6 units to be on a 1-2 unit lot on Green St. Following are the Mayor's and Marsh's letter. Colucci's letter will be uploaded as soon as received.
When do people in a neighborhood matter?
Does the Mayor understand the laws of the land? In the Mayor's letter of support, she is citing to heavily rely on views expressed in a 2007 approval. Excuse me, wasn't the 2007 approval illegal, in noncompliance with zoning use regulations?
The next hearing, which shouldn't be even hearing is at the ZBAthis Tuesday Oct. 1 at 6:30pm, Rm. 301, Lynn City Hall.
I've just been informed there is another former councillor to question. Norm Cole of LHAND sits on the ZBA and voted in favor of the project in one of the last meetings.
ReplyDeleteIf this project turns into low income housing, shouldn't Norm recuse himself from further voting since LHAND deals with this?
