Tonight: Make Your Voice Heard on Newly Proposed Shelter

This is a critical moment for our community, district, and neighborhood.

On Utica Avenue and Rutland Road just two blocks away from the under construction Crown Heights MEGA’ Homeless Shelter, across the street from the migrant shelter at 599 Utica Avenue the former Utica hotel, which is now housing illegal migrants, one block away from Breaking Ground’s 110 room homeless shelter, directly behind Utica Ceesent, which just opened a three 12-story building complex homeless shelter development just several months ago, feet from the shuttered Kingsbrook Synagogue, which Jews are banned from, and NYS is trying to demolish the Shul and build another shelter.

At tonight’s CB9 meeting, there is a discussion and vote tonight about proposing a new Homeless Shelter at the former gas station and current vacant lot at 530 Utica Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11203

Join concerned and frustrated residents of Crown Heights, East Flatbush, and Remsen Village tonight at the Brooklyn Community Board 9 (CB9) public Land Use meeting to stand up and voice strong opposition to the proposed 530 Utica Ave, which joins the growing list of homeless shelters (including the Mega shelter) that is affecting the neighborhood.

When: Tonight (Tuesday) November 10, at 6:30 PM
Where: CB9 Headquarters – 890 Nostrand Ave (between President St & Carroll St)

Decisions that affect our neighborhood are being made right now. If we don’t show up, others will decide for us. A strong turnout sends a clear message: our community cares, and we demand to be heard.

Every single person in that room makes a difference. The more residents who attend, the more powerful our voice becomes.

This is about the future of the Shchunah. Be there. Be heard.
