I wish you would have mentioned this petition at the meeting tonight as something we can do. I expected to sign it at the meeting. I am a Monument resident. Will a petition even help?

Don't ruin our town. This will just open the door for more facilities like this in our community.

I did not retire from a quarter of a century of service in the military to this small quiet town to have a treatment center for drug users open near houses and a park where our children play. You want to open a clinic, fine, but not there. Put it where these people can be monitored, not be a threat to other citizens and attract drug dealers and the other trash and criminal element that will go with it. This will only end badly for everyone in the long run.

No way does a facility like that need to come to our small town. It puts us and our families at risk. We will fight against this element. Not against folks needing help but, there are already placea of this kind ib place. The mayor is an idiot and helping to plot the demise of our town.

No way do we want or need something like this in our town. The company is not reputable and has other issues in other states. We want to keep Monument safe from that element!

Just got the email notice re TONIGHT'S Barn Gathering for NO METHADONE. Unfortunately, we cannot attend, and, again, are rooting for all the Good People.
One thought, though, that does not seem to have cropped up: Whenever a liquor establishment is set to open, is it not presented to the surrounding neighborhood, by STATE LAW? Shouldn't this fall under that STATE LAW or a similar law? If it does not, then there is MOST DEFINITELY room for a COLORADO STATE LAW that encompasses NOTIFICATION TO RESIDENTS when a 'methadone dispensary' (oh, my, what a euphemism) would be proposed to be open. Just a thought.

Our mayor and town council have failed our town misarably. What a shame the townsfolk now have to fight this fight alone - what cowards we have elected.

Profoundly irresponsible and a harbinger of decline for the entire community. The associated problems are objectively documented. Those responsible must be held to account.

This is tragic. Been following all these comments. My husband and I have *not* moved to Monument, yet. We want to, because we feel the compatibility factor, i.e., we have a lot to offer the community and the community has a lot to offer us. If this clinic moves forward, we will not be. As one gentleman said earlier in the postings: Cui bono? Godspeed on getting this very bad thing shut down. We're counting on the Good People of Monument, Colorado, to do the right thing. God Bless.

it should be near major hospitals not in the historic district of a tiny town! Ridiculous.

New to the neighborhood and I am quite concerned with this. We just moved in and did not know about the clinic I hope there is a way to prevent this from happening. We moved here from Denver to avoid these kind of things we want to keep our son safe and away from things and people like this.

Active addicts should not be concentrated for any reason in proximity to schools and parks.
