It’s a good time to check your smoke detectors.

The above letter's text reads: 

October 26, 2021
RE: Property: 10803 Deering Road

Dear Neighbor:
Our client, Valley Hope Center, LLC, proposes to use the property at 10803 Deering Road as a Rehabilitation Home.

Under the current Planning Commission By-laws, we have obtained approval to conduct a virtual neighborhood meeting. Accordingly, we are inviting nearby property owners, residents
and neighborhood group representatives to an online neighborhood meeting to discuss the proposal as indicated below.

Through its "Another Way Mission," Goodwill Industries will start working with the Clean Collaborative on November 7.

ANOTHER WAY MISSION: Mission of Another Way is to provide a workforce strategy that includes opportunities or individuals to gain job skills training and work-based learning opportunities rather than directly engaging other people for money on sidewalks and other rights of way. Another Way Team will canvass highly trafficked areas known for panhandling and offer up to 13 individuals daily the opportunity to work or 5 hours and earn $50 compensation for their time.  Individuals will return daily to Goodwill’s Career Resource Center there they will have the opportunity to address barriers and connect to both internal and external resources.
