Mt. Hop-ing for Healthy Affordable Housing
Someone is “ready to devise an Action Plan for the Mt. Hope neighborhood.”
And they say "We want YOU to be involved in taking the next steps towards making Mt. Hope the neighborhood you want it to be!"
Have all the taxpayers and residents been consulted?
Attend this meeting and learn who wishes to bring more affordable housing to the Mt. Hope neighborhood and why.
