From the St. Johns Neighborhood Association:
Greetings!
Let’s talk BottleDrop. As you may have seen on our social media, the Board voted at its last meeting (held on Feb. 28) to officially oppose a BottleDrop facility at the old Dollar Tree on Lombard St.
That is different than the full Neighborhood Association opposing the development. That can only happen at a general meeting and is a topic we’ll be sure to discuss.
We are finalizing a draft of a potential letter of opposition that will be reviewed at our general meeting on Monday, 3/11. We will share that draft with you via email on Sunday evening so there are at least 24 hours for people to review.
Monday’s meeting will be unique as we will have two physical locations and a virtual option. The main meeting will be held in the James John Elementary School auditorium starting at 7 p.m. We will have a satellite location at El Antojo Botanero on Fessenden Street, as well as our traditional Zoom meeting with live translated captions.
The details are still being confirmed, but multiple city and state elected officials have expressed interest in attending the event to listen to our thoughts and discussion. We will also update you on that front with our email Sunday evening.
We look forward to seeing everyone and to a friendly and productive conversation.

Should the city be in the business of catering to one neighborhood’s demands to ship the homeless elsewhere?
The people who live in Hazelnut Grove do not want to move.
Save Hazelnut Grove Village The Hazelnut Grove Tiny Cabin Village has provided stable, long-term permanent housing for dozens of people for more than five years. As the pandemic ravishes our community and as the Center for Disease Control encourages all people to be allowed to shelter in place, the residents of the Hazelnut Gr...
