Subject: petition to turn vacant lot into community garden
Hi all. Apologies for the spaminess of this e-mail, but ... The Walnut
Hill Community Association is trying to purchase a vacant lot near
49th and Chancellor that is a gathering spot for drug dealing and
other criminal activity and turn it into a community garden. The
problem is that someone else is trying to buy the lot too and I'm told
by a bunch of folks that they are actually involved in the criminal
activity. Anyway, the WHCA has a petition going to Jannie
Blackwell ...
The petition and the westphillylocal.com story on it are here (that's
the spammy part) :

Best
