A little bit on the late side, but the Safety Committee will be meet on Monday, June 21, 2010, at 6 PM, in Council Chambers of City Hall, to discuss the widening of West High Avenue. Residents of West High between the railroad tracks and Five Points should be especially aware of this as the decision made by the Safety Committee will play a big part in the eminent domain seizure of private property on that stretch of road. It is our understanding that none of the residents who own property on West High, which is under consideration for the street widening, have been informed of this meeting, a situation which we hope is not true. If it is the case, we take umbrage with the committee, as these residents have the right to be informed of the city's plans for property seizure before any formal action is taken.
Residents should take advantage of the opportunity to attend this important committee meeting, ask questions, and make committee members aware of their feelings. Failure to do so could see the seizure of property without the owners consent. Interestingly enough, invitations to attend the meeting were sent to a local realtor and ODOT representatives.
For further information contact your City Councilman or the Mayor.
Residents, get involved. It's your property the city will take should this project be approved.

Mr Conner, arent all meetings open to the public and notice is posted? If so, then the residents need to wake up. I have read about it in the paper and its on the radio all the time.
ReplyDeleteDo you ever have anything positive to say about the City of New Phila? It's getting harder for me to put credence in anything you say when your always against something?
To me, the widening of this road will benefit most of the citizens in NP or anyone traveling through this area. Its a huge bottleneck. Sometimes progress may affect certain people but look at the history of america. Change is good sometimes.
