SUMMARY:FARREN AVENUE PROTEST
DESCRIPTION:join us on Friday 12/12/2014 at 5:30pm at 222 Farren Avenu
 e!!!!!!  \nThe underlying question is this; Do we really want or need
  more liquor stores in our neighborhood?\nThe Farren Avenue neighborho
 od has answered that question with a \"NO\". I don't want this to be 
 a long editorial; but what happens when a community enacts business st
 andards and those standards are not being met? Or even worse, what hap
 pens when they are being totally ignored? Does this stop at Farren Ave
 nue or can it happen anywhere?\n\n\nThe residents along Farren/Fairmon
 t have said,\n\"No, we don't need a package store\".\nThe area busines
 ses, school, and church have said,\n\"No we don't want a liquor store 
 here either\".\nRoshan Patel is the owner of Gem Liquors at 65 Lambert
 on Street and soon to be owner of a new Gemstone Liquors at 222 Farren
  Ave. Roshan does not live in the community, he only sells us liquor a
 nd takes our money elsewhere. Roshan is confident he has the proper zo
 ning approval so he feel's no need to reply to or meet with the commun
 ity. The neighbors are fed up with being ignored and pushed through an
  ineffective system. Due to his ignorance toward his new community and
  arrogant attitude toward others, we feel the only way to get our mess
 age across to him would be picketing his two inner-city liquor stores.
  This coming Friday, 12/12/2014 we will be picketing both locations tw
 ice, 222 Farren Avenue and 65 Lamberton Street. First, the morning com
 mute from 7:30-9am, and then an evening commute protest at 5:30-7pm. R
 ain or shine, open for business or not, protesters will be outside to 
 gain support and raise awareness. The purpose of the picket is to get 
 Patel to respond to the Farren Avenue Community, to get Patel to under
 stand that Farren Ave does not support his business and get him to und
 erstand what a foolish business move he is making. Will you join fello
 w neighbors to express your anger over this issue by picketing with us
 ? In case you missed the article in the New Haven Independent, here it
  is for some background information on the issue: http://www.newhaveni
 ndependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/neighbors_weigh_picketing_new_
 liquor_store/ Most Sincerely, Thomas Burwell\n\nP.S. pick any time, lo
 cation & BYO signs\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information visit htt
