I really thought this might just fizzle out in a quiet corner of the internet but seeing how many people are actually talking about this now is just wild. It is honestly kind of overwhelming to wake up and see that the momentum has grown so far beyond my own little circle of friends who were worried about those houses on Lake Street. I have to figure out how to get this in front of the board members because the local news is starting to poke around and ask questions which is terrifying but also exactly what we need.

Keep the heart of our city alive. Tearing down those houses for a jail expansion is just wrong when there are other options on the table.
WE DONT NEED A GIANT JAIL BLOCKING UP LAKE ST. FIND A DIFFERENT SOLUTION THAT DOESNT WRECK THE DISTRICT!
Lived here my whole life and this plan is just plain lazy. There are better sites than right in the middle of our community.
Look at the budget. Video conferencing saves tons of money and we dont need a massive jail right downtown. Stop the demolition.
Ridiculous to destroy historical homes for this. Why arent we looking at treatment programs instead of just locking everyone up?

This is our neighborhood not a prison yard. Save these houses please.
