Phoenix House
- Share via
As a resident of Lake View Terrace, I read with interest Hugo Martin’s article Sept. 17 regarding the Phoenix House hearing (“Hearing Reviews Drug Care Center’s Record”). I found his reporting to be biased and almost as appalling as the incidents of Phoenix House runaways climbing the fences into the yards of private residences in order to escape the facility. I ask Phoenix House to do the right thing, and that is to do whatever it takes to absolutely guarantee security to the neighbors of Phoenix House, without being forced by the hearing officer’s recommendations. People ought not to live in the psychological fear that Phoenix House has helped create. Please be the good neighbor you purport to be.
