Why this petition matters
The Wellston Community Coalition (WCC) focuses on helping make the Wellston community a great place to live, work and play. Part of making Wellston a better community is planned growth. Empower Wellston seeks to pull together these efforts to create a cohesive, cooperative vision for the future of Wellston residents that want the community to grow and thrive. The WCC wants it to be done in a way that protects our community, our environment, and our quality of life.
We are concerned with the draft redevelopment plan of Empower Wellston and the subsequent legislation that enforces it. We acknowledge our community has had decades long systemic disinvestment. Because of historical injustice, we have vowed to work to ensure resident review and response to current and future development efforts. Citizens in Wellston suffer from lack of access and mobility to participate in predominately all Wellston engagement efforts.
As a result, the Wellston Community Coalition OPPOSES the current draft Empower Wellston Plan and the Proposed Ordinance 3408 in its current form and have presented the following recommendations to city officials and planners of Empower Wellston to ensure resident participation and development:
- Promote Transparency
- Promote Accountability
- Promote Good Governance
- Promote Equitable Development
Please sign our petition in support of transparency, accountability, good governance, and equitable development in the City of Wellston.
