(Information as of 9/27/2014)

Neighborhood meeting tentatively set for Oct 2, 2014 at 7:00 pm at The Church in the City, 16th and Gaylord.

Chy (720 337-8882), who is the Chief of Staff for our City Councilman Albus Brooks, is helping by finding out some basic information about the clinic so that we can have a foundation that includes what issues/problems have neighbors encountered with the clinic at its former location at 18th and Gaylord.

The goal is 

...to have a community meeting attended by neighbors, Councilman Brooks, the clinic operator, and the person associated with the clinic that made the decision to move the location to 1620 Gaylord.

The objective

...of the meeting is to make sure that people have a chance to ask questions and understand what is going on with the property and the impact that it may have.

I'm not sure

...if anything can be done to stop this as my understanding is that the property is a "right by use," and others/realtors can explain this better than I can. At the very least we can learn from Councilman Brooks what options are available to us; and, we can learn from the clinic staff what the dynamics are.
