[TB] Give me a break. Plymouth Church is not breaking any laws, they have applied for a conditional use permit allowing the proposed use of their property. A conditional use permit is a normal and regular use of the City of Minneapolis zoning code. You object to the permit. You own a business in the neighborhood and have joined a group that doesn't want the facility in filing a lawsuit to prevent it. Its called NIMBY, Not In My BackYard. In this instance a conditional use permit wouldn't even be required if Plynouth were to rent the rooms to the same people and not provide any support. Are you suggesting that is a better option? Margaret Miles' question of what neighbor someone is from is relevant to this subject. Many areas (Navarre?) don't have any affordable housing, any supportive housing and work hard to keep it that way. If she responds to additional arguments that makes for even more coverage of the issue.
