Oppose homeless shelter in Irvington

THERE IS A PETITION OUT THEIR THAT WANTS YOUR SUPPORT, FIRST OF ALL THE WRITER CLEARLY DOES NOT HAVE THEIR FACTS TOGETHER. IT STATES A VOCAL MINORITY OPPOSED THIS SHELTER, THE FACT IS THAT OVER ONE HUNDRED THIRTY PEOPLE SHOWED UP, 95 PERCENT OPPOSED THE SHELTER.THE WRITER ALSO STATES THAT RESEARCH SHOWS THAT IT WOULD NOT HURT PROPERTY VALUES, WHILE THIS IS TRUE IN SOME CASES RESEARCH ALSO SHOWS THAT IT DOES. IT STATES THAT WHILE A SHELTER DOES NOT AFFECTED PROPERTY VALUES THAT IS BECAUSE MOST SHELTERS ARE SET UP IN DEPRESSED AREAS, AND CAN NOT AFFORD TO SET UP IN WELL TO DO NEIGHBORHOODS. THE PICTURE ALSO IS DECEPTIVE BECAUSE IT IS NOT THE PICTURE OF THAT MOTEL.THE MOTEL IS VACANT HAS WATER DAMAGE,BROKEN WINDOWS, LEAD PAINT,RETAINING WALL THAT IS FALLING DOWN, AND ASBESTOS.
THE ORGANIZATION THAT WANTS TO SET UP IN IRVINGTON HAS NO CLEAR PLAN ON HOW IT WOULD FUND THIS PROJECT YEAR AFTER YEAR.THE FACT IS THERE IS A SHELTER TWO MILES AWAY THAT CLOSED DUE TO LACK OF FUNDING.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD SIMPLY CANT HANDLE ANYMORE IN THIS TINY FOUR BLOCK AREA,WE HAVE DRUG DEALERS,PROSITUTION,JOHNS,29 SEX OFFENDERS,18 HALFWAY HOUSES,AND A PLASMA CENTER,WE ARE AT OUR LIMIT.
PLEASE JOIN US IN SIGNING THIS PETITION-GETTING THE FACTS STRAIGHT.
