[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typical NIMBY folks. Just move it to that other area just don't build it here. I hope someday you don't need services and the neighbors decide they are more important than your recovery. [/quote] I think it's reasonable to point out that a treatment center like this probably shouldn't border an elementary school. That's not NIMBYism, that's common sense.[/quote] Treatment Center like this-You might as well use the words-Those people but look over your shoulder first so nobody hears you saying it [/quote] “Level 3.5 involves high-intensity programs for adults who cannot be treated outside of a 24/7 facility due to severe physical or psychological problems or severe impulse control problems, or because they display dangerous symptoms that require 24-hour monitoring.” No one is afraid to say out loud that housing 16 people with severe diagnoses, impulse control issues and/or dangerous symptoms on a property sharing a fence with an elementary school playground is a bad idea.[/quote] I don't understand. If the treatment center is level 3.5, and that level mandates 24 hour supervision, then your best bet as a neighborhood is to document every instance of failure of supervision, and make it clear to the treatment facility that they are courting liability when supervision lapses. The neighborhood should be supporting the neighbors of the treatment facility by funding security cameras in the neighborhood and to monitor school property. And, in this day and age, no one (treatment patient or otherwise) should be able to access a school without going through the front door and showing ID to the front office. [/quote]
