There is already a Dunkin Donuts serving Dudley Square. Another franchise in this location adds trash and other problems to a neighborhood that sees no benefit from this business.

While I feel each human can make their own decisions about whether to eat food from Dunkin Donuts or not, the selection process (or lack thereof) for this project was seriously flawed. Traffic in that corner of the square is already a nightmare (Washington Street is one lane wide on that side of the street), there are clearly no community-related economic development benefits. there is no synthesis between this project and other community efforts to create a balance of wealth and investment. The city should go back to the drawing board on this project (and Bartlett, for that matter).

I oppose this terrible idea for our neighborhood. We do not need anymore crappy, unhealthy bad chains/ choices dumped in this neighborhood.

This whole process sounds disgustingly familiar - we stand with the community. Janet Jones, Dorchester/RoxburyLabor Committee/member Boston Jobs Coalition

I am a small business owner and have family that has been in Roxbury for over 70 years! I will like to see the community more involved. Please keep me posted.

I think we do not understand the needs, just greed. I do not support having a fast food facility in the space in question.

Building a Dunkin Donuts at the Bartlett/Washington St location in no way reflects the needs or wishes of this community for beneficial and quality development.

Respect the rights and wishes of the Neighborhood. Support local businesses, a living wage, healthy food choices, & prevent the spread of greedy corporations who try to exploit us, seeking to foist bad food & bad business models upon our communities. Roxbury DOES NOT 'run on Dunkin'.

As a Roxbury abutting resident, and a Pediatrician who tackles childhood obesity on a daily bases, I firmly oppose the building of any more dunkin donuts ANYWHERE. I will not tolerate it in my backyard. I am already picking up dunkin donuts cups and napkins that blow into my vegetable garden from the exiting businesses in my neighborhood. This has got to stop.

No to Dunkin Donuts! There is 1 just a few blocks away. How many of these things do we need? Lets get a quality business in there.

Abandon this good old boy stuff now. Transparency and the affected neighborhood should guide. Not the backroom. Enough!!

Dunkin Donuts at this location is unnecessary and provides no benefit to the community. I strongly oppose.
