Subject: Permit
Dear Councilman Jackson,
The DPW informed me that you are the person whose name was on the permit for, what turned out to be, an illegal event in Billy Taylor Park that ended up with 25 policemen responding to a melee on Camp Street after the event was over.
Furthermore, the permit was only for a block party on Cypress Street between Camp and Knowles. However, Camp Street was illegally closed off between Locust Street and Cypress.
Where were you during the event and where were you after the event was over when the entire on duty Providence Police force, over 25 officers, had to respond to disperse the resulting violent crowd.
Why was Billy Taylor Park used, with loud rap music, without a Parks Department permit? I called the Parks Department and they told me that they issued no permit for an event in Billy Taylor Park.
Who is ultimately responsible for this fiasco that disrupted the entire neighborhood and used the entire police resources to quell the near riot?
Where were you?
How can we, the community, with your help, prevent another such occurrence?
Your constituents await your response.
John Twomey,
Greater Camp Concerned Citizens
