IMPORTANT INFORMATION re: Proposed Self-storage Facility for Newtonville Avenue

A 113, 000 square foot self-storage facility (1.5 times larger than Whole Foods in Newtonville) is being proposed for the corner of Newtonville Avenue and Lewis Terrace.  Why is this important for Bigelow Families?  The streets of Newton Corner and Newtonville are already unsafe for our kids walking to and from Bigelow.  This facility will bring increased traffic and truck traffic to congested streets,  as well as bringing individuals with no vested interests into our community, and will increase safety concerns for our children. This is also adjacent to Cabot Park, which many of our families use.

The Land Use Committee is voting on this proposal on May 3, 2016 –  please consider supporting a  petition of the residents opposing this facility, and attending the Land Use Committee meeting at 7 pm at City Hall on May 3.
