We wish to preserve the character and viability of Lebanon’s residential neighborhoods. Lebanon’s Zoning Ordinances state that their mission is to “preserve the older, established residential sections of the city as viable residential neighborhoods.” By doing this we are able to uphold one of the missions of the Lebanon Master Plan, which is to support downtown Lebanon’s small and locally owned businesses.

Headrest Incorporated has applied for a special exception, for which they do not meet the criteria, to be able to move into a residential district. If this exception is granted then it will not only begin to deconstruct a viable neighborhood but will set a precedent that can be followed. This would mean that this could occur throughout all of Lebanon’s residential neighborhoods, including yours.

By signing this petition you agree that the Lebanon Zoning Ordinances should be upheld and that treatment facilities, like Headrest Inc., should not be granted a special exception.
