Description

The New Haven Board of Aldermen is on the verge of making a serious mistake in permanently selling blocks in the heart of the city. These are public spaces that have been held in common since the city was founded in 1638.

Tim Holahan has created a Change.org petition asking the New Haven Board of Aldermen not to proceed with the sale. You can read about the issue in the New Haven Independent.

Making the deal on the terms offered would be a great loss for New Haven. Before this mistake becomes law, there is one more vote by the full board on the matter.
