>At BF Middle School tonight starting at 7:30pm will be the LAST chance for the public to comment on the proposed H-Zone Master Plan amendment. While the revised amendment contains greater setbacks and puts 60% of the parking underground, the proposal still would grant the hospital the right to double its current size to 1,170,000 sq. ft. (up from 530,000) with buildings that will appear to be 7 storeys tall, located only 60 ft from Steilen Ave homes and 40 feet from the boundary of BF. The proposal would also result in 6.5 years of continuous construction just for phase one.
There is an alternative to the current proposal that would allow Valley modernize and save the neighborhood – but this is NOT the current proposal. Please come to the meeting tonight and tell the Planning Board that they need to listen to the “will of the people” and change the proposal. Even if you feel you cannot speak, please attend and support your neighbors.
