City to allow a VA Group Care Facility in Margate, Fl.
Request the City of Margate to approve the Zoning Letter.
The City of Margate, FL is not allowing a VA Residential Treatment Facility to open because of the clientele. We understand that many VA because of PTSD suffer from SUD but this should not be the reason to exclude them. One of the City commissioners said that a person with SUD "would be a concern as much as a SEXUAL PREDATOR, and should not be allowed in a Residential neighborhood". If you care for the VA Please sign this petition. They risk their lives protecting ours.
