Non-profit organizations, like Girl and Boy Scouts, are made up of people from the local community and free meeting space is necessary to maintain the effectiveness of these programs and to reduce costs for all of the participants. For Girl Scout troops, some whose numbers are small, or have challenges to fundraising, having to sell 216 BOXES OF COOKIES for funds dedicated just to meeting space, will hamper their efforts of giving back to the community in which they live. There is a mandatory limit on dues for participants, so these fees can not simply be an added overhead cost. Additionally, most of these troops give back to the district through volunteer projects-either earning a badge or through Make A Difference Day. Without a connection to their meeting space the incentive for organizing these projects will significantly decrease and the district buildings will actually suffer from this change. Please reconsider charging these groups a fee for simple meetings and activities. The participants are local members of the community who already pay taxes for these buildings, and should be allowed to utilize them whenever time and scheduling allows, to make as much use of those public buildings as possible. Remember, we are all connected in this community, and this decision will have only negative consequences.

Great communities like Brookings aren't complete without bike lanes. In 2008, the city of Brookings approved a plan to make Brookings a bikeable community. However, after nearly 8 years, that plan was never fully implemented. Studies show that bike lanes promote public safety and increase the quality of life for all community members. Brookings has an amazing bike trail, but it's still difficult to navigate the city streets on your bike -- and sidewalks are for pedestrians. Now is the perfect time to tell Jeffrey W. Weldon, the City Manager, to make Brookings complete by making Brookings a bikeable community. We're delivering this petition to Jeff Weldon, so please sign your name and send it to everyone you know who supports bike lanes in Brookings!

In 33 states there's been a ban against feeding the homeless, people are facing fees, even jail time for feeding the homeless. Times are hard, even harder for those that are homeless, so to ban charities from feeding is morally wrong.

Taxes are increasing at an all-time high on the local level to the point where the elderly on fixed incomes are being pitted against their children and grandchildrens' education. Municipalities are being cut to a dangerous level in order to pay the school budget. Something has to change.

Dear Neighbors, The builder has applied at least the 4 times to divert the watercourse by covering a portion of the South Fox Meadow Brook. An approval for anything more than ingress/egress will set a precedent for covering bodies of water throughout Scarsdale. I expect that many of you share the same concerns with respect to the consequences of diverting a watercourse by covering bodies of water. I believe the general welfare of the community is protected by limiting proposed coverage to ingress/egress.

Arizona residents feel acute injustice in not having the facility of nonstop international travel availability. Nations 6th largest city - PHX - deserves better.

As a native of New Jersey I find it totally unacceptable I should have to pay to gain entrance on any public beach. Every other state has found a way to allow all beaches to be free, clean and guarded. Tell our legislators to correct this flawed system.

In their engineering studies, the city manager and city planning officers have ignored the historic underground tunnels that were vital to establishing Livingston, MT as the original gateway to the World's first national park, Yellowstone National Park, and the city's rich international culture that built the railroads. We the undersigned, petition the Livingston public officials and anyone with whom they contract, to provide, once the engineering study is complete, the funding for the saving of the vaults, sidewalk basements, tunnels, etc. discussed above— whether directly, through grants overseen and procured by the City of Livingston during the winter of 2015-2016, existing funding sources like the Urban Renewal Agency, public or private funding, or directly from the City of Livingston public funds

My daughter was one of the people killed when she as everyone in the community was crossing the tracks to go to work. She had seen many do this, and you could still see the old road way that was never closed properly. She had been riding the train for over 5 years and knew the schedule of the trains. The train company knew that there was a problem there with people crossing, yet they did nothing to stop this. There is no permanent fence in the area, and there is even a gate leading from the platform to the tracks.

Facility is in need of substantial repairs and we need your help. Please sign our petition to help save this precious resource for not only Rhode Island, but also to preserve its unique aviation history.

My sister, who was born deaf and with congenital heart disease, is currently receiving a monthly SSD check which barely covers basic necessities. She is not capable of working and were she to need hospitalization, the co-pays alone would be unmanageable. She, along with millions of others born handicaps, bare a burden most American will never fully appreciate.
