SEE THE DETAILS BELOW ON HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE

The ZBA hearing for 4045-61 MAIN STREET, THE LITTLEWOODS PROPERTY is
scheduled for Wednesday September 17 at 9:30 AM 

 WE NEED PEOPLE TO SIGN IN AGAIN ON THE ZBA HOME PAGE AND SPEAK [5],
HOWEVER, BRIEFLY ABOUT THE PROPOSAL AND ANY DETAILS FROM THE TESTIMONY.
AFTER RAISING YOUR VIRTUAL HAND, THE CHAIR, WILLIAM BERGMAN, WILL SWEAR
YOU IN AND ALLOW YOU TO SPEAK; YOU WILL BE HEARD BUT NOT SEEN ON THE
SCREEN. IF THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE, THE CHAIR WILL TRY TO LIMIT THE
TIME THAT YOU SPEAK AND TRY TO INSIST THAT YOU SAY SOMETHING DIFFERENT
FROM PREVIOUS SPEAKERS BUT DON'T BE FLUSTERED BY THIS - SAY EXACTLY WHAT
YOU WANT, AS SUCCINCTLY AS POSSIBLE. 

THE ZBA SESSION BEGINS AT 9:30 AM BUT THE MAIN STREET CASE MAY NOT BE
THE FIRST CASE TO BE CALLED. 

THE DEVELOPER HAS GONE DOOR TO DOOR ALONG MAIN STREET, ASKING FOR
SUPPORT FOR THE SCHEME SO WE NEED AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE TO REGISTER
SOME FORM OF OPPOSITION SO THAT THE ZBA BOARD KNOWS THAT THE SCHEME IS
NOT LIKED BY THE COMMUNITY BEYOND MAIN STREET. 

WE APPRECIATE ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE.
