The town finally committed to the full renovations we demanded for the plaza. It has been a long and draining road to get here but I am relieved we can stop fighting for basic safety. We will keep watching to ensure they actually finish the work they promised.

Ensure Health/Safety, Improve Appearance, Safeguard Our Property Values
Dear Neighbor,
Concerned neighbors would like your support in petitioning the Town of Brighton and the plaza property owners (Rhinecliff Monroe Corporation) to:
Enforce/Comply with Town Codes and Improve Overall Condition of Monroe Avenue Plaza and Adjacent Vacant House (corner of Monroe and Rhinecliff)
- Properties have been neglected for many years—town codes are not followed.
- Issues include ongoing rodent infestation (actual image above).
- Current proposal for a minimal "face lift," affecting only a small portion of the plaza (former Otter Lodge area where a new tenant is seeking to move in), while positive, is not enough.
_____________________________________________________________
This Petition Could Help Improve the Rest of Monroe Avenue
While this petition is specific to the Monroe Avenue plaza, sending the town our concerns would hopefully inspire them to look at and make similar improvements on all of Monroe Avenue.
- While some minor improvements have been made to Monroe Avenue over the past 20 years, the larger traffic, pedestrian safety, aesthetic, and property value impact/issues still exist that have been noted in resident town vision plans.
Thank you in advance for your support! Together we can improve/help keep our town a safe, enjoyable place for us all to live.
Concerned Brighton Neighbors

Run down properties can impact the economic health and public safety of our entire community—attracting crime and unsanitary conditions that can spread.

Reaching this point has been a long and draining climb but seeing so many of you join this fight gives me the resolve to keep going. The neglect on Monroe Avenue has gone on for far too long and I am staying focused on pushing the town to finally take us seriously.

The plaza has been an eyesore for way too long. Sick of seeing the trash everywhere and definitely not dealing with rats anymore.
We pay enough in taxes to see these property owners keep their buildings up to code. Enough is enough.
I avoid that plaza at all costs. It looks run down and honestly just feels unsafe at night. Needs a major overhaul.
Used to love going there but now its just dirty. hope this gets cleaned up soon.
FINALLY. Monroe Ave is falling apart. Do your jobs!

Ridiculous that this has been allowed to go on. That house on the corner is a total disaster waiting to happen.
