REGISTER YOUR SUPPORT TO HELP LEFLEUR EAST MOVE FORWARD!


The LeFleur East Foundation is seeking a Special Exception with the City of Jackson to be able to use the LeFleur East House on 4658 Old Canton Road as the headquarters for the Foundation.  This beautiful home was graciously given by the Creekmore family to be used as an identifiable and central landmark to benefit the community.


The primary use is for the Executive Director to have an office located within the boundaries of the Foundation's focus area.  The secondary use is for special events that promote and encourage a greater community experience.


In keeping with the Foundation's commitment to our great city, our desire is to be a friendly and positive neighbor to the surrounding area.   Thank you for registering your support as we all strive to make Jackson a better place.


*When you sign the petition, a page will pop up asking for donations. This is NOT from LeFleur East. This is from ipetitions. You do NOT need to give a donation. It will not go to LeFleur East, but to ipetitions.

The city needs to approve this already. Such a waste for that building to be sitting there empty.

Long overdue. The foundation does great work in Jackson and deserves a proper office space.

YES. Jackson needs more of these types of projects to keep our history alive at that end of Old Canton.
