PAUL We , the following residents of Norton Street, District County Number �5 of Ramsey County, are in unity for making our community a safe and pic�uresque part of the Como Park , Northend area . We are filing this petition to your o£fice in hopes of your office helping us to close or condemn the � following properties on Norton Street under the Statute of Public Nuisance . ' 1161 and 1165 Norton Street are Section 8 homes which are occupied by no less than ten ( 10) residents . These buildings are dual residences , however , our understanding is that Section 8 housing programs are designed for single mothers with children, not unemployed gang members and grown men that sit in their front yards drinking , doing drugs and hasseling residents on our street . We are concerned for our children , and our property value which is dropping at a staggering rate . We have approached the slumlords of these properties in an effort to resolve these problems . They have taken no steps to improve these dhTellings . j�'e would appreciate any assistance that your office would be able to give us . Please �ind enclosed , signatures and addresses of neighbors demanding improvemen� in our area . We w�ll be lookina forward to hearing your response to this problem. Thank-you for your time and for a speedy response . Thank-you , The Norton Street �lock Club . . � �� - � s �� . ..�..
