Meeting Alert!
Cranston City Council will be voting on the Lodges at Phenix Glen
Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 7:00pm at Cranston City Hall, Council Chambers on the 3rd floor.
The first step is to say “NO!” No to out-of-scale buildings, to increased density and traffic, to a drive-thru, to more burden on police, fire and school, to the part of this project that simply feels wrong and will forever change the character of where we live.
We know that you are busy but remember this: if we do nothing today, we’ll be living with this development forever.
Please speak up in person! Attend the May 2nd meeting in the Council Chambers. The most important thing any community can do is to show up. Commit to bringing your family and your neighbors and commit them to bringing their neighbors. Power in numbers! PLAN TO STAY!!!
If you believe this does not affect you, think hard. Perhaps today the battle is on Phenix Avenue. But one day soon, with this outsized development as precedent; you might be living next door to a Home Depot. This isn’t just a fight to protect one place today it’s a campaign for a better future across our city. And in the end, speaking out on this matter takes very little time, costs you nothing but may be the most valuable thing you can do to speak up for your rights as a citizen.
Since our country’s founding, we’ve been a place where people come together to change the course of history. We can change history right here in Cranston.
How can YOU say NO?
