Would it also be possible for the poster to transcribe the petition in Spanish since this neighborhood has a large Hispanic population who might not be aware this is happening?

Let’s not forget to vote Mr Antonio Reynoso our of office at the next election. He is opposing the residents and supporting this shelter. I have no doubt that he is being richly compensated by the owner of the building and the city for his position. As a community we need to remember this during the election year and primary him. Let’s send him back home where he belongs since he does not represent the views of his constituents.

No to a men's shelter. This is not an appropriate location I have a 4 year old daughter and I am very concerned about the safety of my daughter.

Although the intention to help homeless men regain their place in society is a valid one, there are many risks and uncertainty associated with it. As law abiding, tax paying citizens, we have tried to maintain a lawful and decent life to protect ourselves and our loved ones. We therefore, should NOT and cannot suddenly be neglected and ignored. This process has done exactly that, and we demand that it stops immediately so that a real discussion can emerge. We have that right!

No! to having a shelter to our neighborhood! Took a long time to establish a safe and clean environment go a long time in our area for families and local businesses!!! We don’t want to go back to war zone like we used to be scared of even walking around.

This is not the appropriate location for a homeless shelter. This is an established family and kid friendly neighborhood. There are schools and stores everywhere that will all go out of business and drive crime in huge numbers. Will devastate the neighborhood.

This is not acceptable. I strongly oppose this shelter as it will create unsafe conditions in the neighborhood. There are schools and a lot of families in this area.

Absolutely NOT. The street is full of families and kids, shops and businesses. It would devastate everything good that has happened in this area in the last few years.

I do not agree with the location of this shelter. Families, children and homes will be negatively impacted for decades to come.

This neighborhood has enough shelters why are we adding more? There’s a men’s shelter on porter between Johnson and flushing. A family shelter on flushing and Wyckoff. Bushwick should not be imposed with another one especially at wyckoff and hart where there is a lot of families with children.
