In the late 90’s my parents would stay there as it was nice. Now it’s <br />covered in filth, crime, and code violations. Neighboring restaurants and businesses have seen a huge uptick in crime <br />and the nearby park and homes are susceptible to the criminals frequenting this area. <br /> <br />Please look to hold the owners responsible for the maintenance and safety of their property. <br /> <br />If the hotel is being used to house recently released inmates, there needs to be adequate security and oversight. <br /> <br />This hotel as well as the immediate area has been ignored too long and crime has grown exponentially. <br /> <br />It’s time for our leaders to focus on the “broken windows” in our city to clean up the filth, crime, drug use, etc., that is <br />plaguing our city. It’s not enough to move people along and allow businesses to allow properties to deteriorate, people <br />who are homeless leave trash and hazardous waste on our streets and sidewalks, and allow criminal activity to <br />proliferate in the name of being empathetic to those who may be homeless, have mental disabilities, or who are drug <br />users. We have programs, shelters, and organizations, ready and willing to help. I don’t understand the logic of letting <br />someone live unsafely on the streets rather than insist they enter a program or location for assistance and a hand up. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Thank you for your time. <br /> <br />Thank you! <br /> <br />Lynne Zwickl <br /> <br /> <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />1 <br /> <br />
