The City has received a change -of -use request to convert the building to a non- profit organization called A Life Worth Living. This organization offers a residential program specializing in drug and alcohol rehabilitation. As proposed, the facility will house clients, admitted on a voluntary basis, who seek to recover from drug and alcohol addiction in a residential setting. The facility will be professionally staffed on a 24-hour and seven -days -per -week basis. The staff will implement a modified 12-step program. The treatment will consist of three basic components: detoxification and withdrawal; life skills courses, and one-on-one counseling. A licensed physician will supervise the admittance procedure and the facility will not admit clients in need of a medically assisted withdrawal. Such clients will be referred to an appropriate facility. Again, all admittance is voluntary. Any building renovations would be to the interior only. There will be no exterior building modifications or site work. All existing parking will remain. The facility at 1225 Redwood Street was recently occupied by Wingshadow, a non-profit organization serving the various social and academic needs of young adults. Presently the facility is the home of the Hope Center, a child care center which would be relocated. The purpose of the meeting is to meet the applicant, hear a brief presentation and ask questions. In addition, the review process will be outlined. Comments will be forwarded to the Planning and Zoning Board. Please feel free to share this letter with your neighbor.
