I am all for these facilities but the location is rediculous, this is a residential area. There are a lot more suitable locations for this type of facility.

HORRIBLE IDEA! I'm not only concerned about our property values, but also how these places attract crime. Franklin is a safe place and lets keep it that way!!

Franklin wake up!!!! Being a Realtor I will tell you that property values in Franklin will be negatively affected by this. Putting this burden on the citizens is unfair. I really hope our Mayor wakes up and puts a stop to this. A Mayor is suppose to enhance his city not make decisions that will be a detriment!

Seriously, Franklin? Stop trying to trick the community. If you have to hide things from us, it's probably not a great idea.

This property would literally close to our back yard-this will hurt our property value and do nothing to add to our neighborhood-if we had small children I would be concerned about their safety.

If they are trying to build a community based facility, Shouldn't they be asking the community that they are trying to build the facility??? The City of Franklin and Alderwoman Susanne Mayer has a responsibility to explain us and stop this!

Everyone should be informed about the true nature of this facility. Why build something like this new when there are so many abandoned buildings in other industrial parts of Milwaukee county?

I purchased a nearby property for my mother last year where she now lives. These particular CBRF's draw the wrong kind of attention and hinder any upside in property values. Furthermore, it decreases the opporutnity of drawing new residents with young children. Suggestion... don't build it here.

People should be informed of and have a say about what is built in their neighborhood.

why can't this be built by the house of correction? Not in a subdivision with young kids, elderly, and families.

Please make sure to read the discussino forum on this. We have found evidence that this facility is not for the disables as Suzanne Mayer has told us. This facility is for offernders, anyone just out of incarceration and drug and alcohol abusers. We need to STOP THIS NOW!

no way. I went to one of these facilities for nursing school downtown Milwaukee. Great for the area not great for Franklin!!! This type of recovery facility is not something that wild make Franklin a place to raise a family with so many potentially dangerous facilities in the area. The facility I went to was strictly men only, there was a security guard sitting at the front desk however the men had free reign throughout the day to do whatever. What type of citizens will this recovery center bring to Franklin? We already have to correctional facility. Put it somewhere else.
