In light of Sandra Seegars email, she is correct - CM Barry's position is firm. He believes in putting groups homes all over the city and the Ward for the good of our special DC residents who need special attention. Since this same matter will be addressed at the April 20th ANC meeting, I am cancelling our meeting that was scheduled for tonight at 6:30 pm. It was our hope to provide you with an audience to share your concerns. But there is no sense in having 2 meetings to address the same issue. Thank you.

Brenda
