Meeting About Special Lefferts Rezoning Request Tonight
We only just found about about this, probably because the organizers don’t want the Brownstoner crowd showing up, but there’s a meeting being held tonight about CNR Healthcare’s proposal to get a special upzoning of a block of Lefferts Place to enable them to build an outsized supportive services facility on the otherwise residential block….
We only just found about about this, probably because the organizers don’t want the Brownstoner crowd showing up, but there’s a meeting being held tonight about CNR Healthcare’s proposal to get a special upzoning of a block of Lefferts Place to enable them to build an outsized supportive services facility on the otherwise residential block. There’s a great deal of opposition from people who own homes on the neighboring two blocks. As we reported back in July, the company has shown an unwillingness to work with residents to find a more palatable solution, preferring instead to try to ram the rezoning down their throats. More than 200 people have signed the petition against the upzoning. The meeting takes place tonight at 7 p.m. at the senior center at 966 Fulton Street between Grand and Cambridge.
DBD, I don’t have a dog in this fight other than a desire to have the facts accurately presented. None of my comments above express an opinion on the project.
bkln, Lincoln road is in a different (and yes nice) neighborhood – Prospect Lefferts Gardens – this is Lefferts Place in Clinton Hill.
bklyn20, I think you’re extremely confused about where we’re talking about. This is Clinton Hill, not Flatbush.
