The neighborhood of Nonantum houses the largest amount of manufacturing and industrial facilities in the City of Newton. This area disproportionately faces the brunt of development. It is not reasonable to expect that all new manufacturing projects must occur in this one neighborhood, where many children, families and seniors reside.

This proposed Marijuana facility would be situated on a residential block and is likely to cause undue traffic. It would create a challenge for parking for employees, as they would likely need to impede on the residential streets nearby to accommodate for such commercial operations.

There should be more equity in the distribution of manufacturing facilities throughout the many other neighborhoods of the City of Newton.

Please stand with the neighborhood of Nonantum in opposing this new development at 69 Adams Street.

I honestly did not think this would gain this much steam so fast because usually people just look away when things get complicated but you all are actually reading and caring. It feels surreal to see so many names attached to this fight for our streets and our homes when I was just staring at a blank screen thinking maybe nobody would even notice the proposal.

Why does everything always get shoved into Nonantum? Put it somewhere else for once.

Please stop the disproportionate amount of development in Newton. If you lived in a residential neighborhood would you want this marijuana distribution operation as your neighbor?
