Real Property Reuse fails residents again

Real Property Reuse continues to backtrack on promises to increase the size of the park at 70 Crescent Street, and Lenny Gentile's pledge to limit the number of housing units in the development to eight. Now up to 12 units, a 50% increase. No minimum amount of land guaranteed to be added to the Rev. Ford Playground. And access to the playground from Auburn Street, that Eversource was willing this summer to give over their land, is being held hostage by the Planning Department to approval of the housing. So the only access will continue to be down the driveway of Myrtle Baptist Church.
Audio of last night's October 27 meeting here.
Oh, and in this very same neighborhood, a large oak tree was cut down by an experienced developer, in violation of his Tree Permit, a developer who will be tearing down a perfectly good moderately-sized house to put up luxury townhouses. He'll owe a $300 fine, all that current ordinances allow.
