Wednesday 1/18/17: Stand with the People of Egelston Square against planned displacement

(from info AT peopleshousingboard.org)

Hello All, Happy 2107 – The year of the People !

On Wednesday 1/18/17 the BRA will hold what will likely be the final public meeting on PLAN JP/ROX before the BRA board meeting in February and the probable vote to approve the Mayor’s displacement based plan. This plan will have likely have devastating displacement effects over the next decade for the People of Egelston Square and many low and moderate income residents along the Washington St corridor between Jackson Square and Forest Hills.

This plan is the first BRA so called “Master Plan” initiated under Walsh. The plan will set in motion the Mayor’s takeover of the of the outer neighborhoods for higher income residents beyond downtown.

It’s critical for all of us to unite and stand with the People of 100% Egelston, Reclaim Roxbury and the several other groups who will represent at this meeting. Plan JP/ROX is a disaster and Egelston Square is at the epicenter of the fight between the People and Power for the right to continue living in this city.

Please stand together and join us on :

Wednesday 1/18/17 – 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM
Bromley Heath Public Housing Complex
(AKA, Mildred C Hailey Apartments)

Anna M. Cole Community Center

In Unity,
