WPCNR THE LETTER TICKER. December 9, 2014:
Marie and Ron Rhoads, residents of Gedney Farms sent their second letter in a series to the Mayor and Common Council detailing issues that the neighborhood feels should weigh against approval of the French American School of New York:
Dear Mayor and the Common Council
As stated in the outside expert report of the FirePro consultants. . .our family, as well as nearby neighbors, will be personally impacted by increased Fire Response Times resulting from the Closure of Hathaway Lane. . .with some Seniors, like ourselves, also concerned about any delay in response times due to Ambulances being slowed down by the increased volume of FASNY Traffic from their cars and school buses.
When you are dealing with Emergency Response Times. . .there is no amount of mitigation that can be offered by the City Staff and FASNY that is acceptable. . .with the exception of leaving in place or improving our existing Response Times. . . which is a core expectation of ours with regard to City Services.
We like our current White Plains City Services. . .why would anyone on the Common Council want to reduce Emergency Response Times or other services that hurt the Health, Safety and Welfare of your residents. . .to satisfy an outside developer who is not offering any Public Benefits?
We report. . .you decide. Your Truth Police, Team Rhodes
Marie and Ron Rhodes
