On Wednesday, May 27th the Tri Lakes Tribune wrote about a Methadone Clinic opening up in historic downtown Monument, just across the street from a community park (Limbach Park). They mentioned a "soft opening" in early July.
I would like to bring this to the communities awareness and ask it's residents to stand together in putting a stop to what may very well be the beginning of our beautiful town's demise. Not only will this ultimately bring more crime, drugs, and more transients into our community but it will also decrease property values of our homes in the area and put our children at risk.
Please rise with the locals of this wonderful community against putting such a destructive force right next to such a delicate location. Should opiate-addicted persons need such amenities, there is a location in Colorado Springs and plenty more in Denver that could accommodate their needs.
We are not against Methadone treatment- just against their desire to plant one in downtown Monument. Please don't let them corrupt our town!!!

The climb toward one thousand signatures has been exhausting but we have to keep pushing while they are still watching us. We are at a critical point where this momentum could either carry us to the finish line or fade away entirely. Please send this link to anyone you know who has not seen the threat to our park yet.

The days have been long and frankly I am exhausted by the fight to protect our streets. We are nearing a hundred signatures but we need a final push to force them to acknowledge our concerns.

Monument is such a wonderful family oriented community. There are family homes, a beautiful park and local businesses that surround this building. It is a horrible and frightening idea to have it in the heart of Monument next to a park where children play.
They should not allow the clinic to go in. I moved here 5 yrs ago and the first thing I researched before moving waa the school district, crime rate what type of community. If I saw that I would not have moved to this wonderful town.
As a medical professional, both a paramedic and a nurse, I understand the need for clinics like this. However, a better place would be closer to a hospital not across the street from a public park where families take their children to play in a safe environment.
This is a extremely poor decision, we simply do not have the law enforcement to deal with the crime that will follow. Think about one thing, all the activity that goes on around that building! This will not be beneficial to the community.
I think drug addicts do need a lot of help but not in such a small area of a small community that has no housing or public transportation to make regular dosing possible. I don't know much about this but think there has to be a better place for the clinic.
I am making a good salary from home $4580-$5240/week , which is amazing under a year ago I was jobless in a horrible economy. I thank God every day I was blessed with these instructions and now its my duty to pay it forward and share it with Everyone, . Follow Here ……..…Www.PayAtHome1.Com
(14)I get paid over (90$ to 500$ / hour ) working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I would be able to do it but my best friend earns over $22000 a month doing this and she convinced me to try. it was all true and has totally changed my life...

I had a brother who was a heroin addict and a methadone patient. Even while on the methadone program, he attempted to rob a bank to get money for heroin. I do think many patients can benefit, however, it only takes one to commit some heinous crime in Monument.
