Click on above “stabilization” word next to the broken window in your neighborhood, for “Neighborhood Saving” news. If there was ever a time to Cry-Out for South Middle River neighborhood, that time is NOW! If you don’t know about the Federal dollars coming into Fort Lauderdale to revitalize our area, inundated with foreclosures and run down properties, then wake up! It will take more than a handful of civic activists to make our voices heard at City Hall. It will take an organized movement.

We need to turn all eyes to our impoverished area. We need 3,000 phone calls, letters and e-mails to our Commissioner, Charlotte Rodstrom and the City Manager, at the Fort Lauderdale City Hall, and voice your support for Federal monies for South Middle River to knock down the run down properties and build affordable townhomes for purchase. The main number is 954-828-5000.

WE CAN’T AFFORD ANY MORE SECTION 8 HOUSING OR RENTALS IN SOUTH MIDDLE RIVER. WE HAVE THE MOST SECTION 8 IN ALL OF FORT LAUDERDALE AND IT’S NOT FAIR!! SPEAK UP! GET EDUCATED AND LEARN ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON THAT WILL IMPACT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THE OUTCOME WILL DEPEND ON YOUR ACTION OR LACK THEREOF.
