I am writing you in regards to passing Ord. No. 791-2024 which will change the current Pedestrian overlay at 10022 Madison (previously a CVS) and making it legal for a gas station to be constructed at this address.
As a resident of Ward 15 and living very near to this proposed gas station I believe that I as well as other residents should have a voice in the decision that will be brought up on Oct.1, 2024.
Councilman Danny Kelly seems to ignore both the majority of Ward 11 and Ward 15 residents who do not want a gas station on the corner of Madison and West Blvd. Danny Kelly himself does not live in Ward 11. Everyone opposed to the rezoning knows that this is a dangerous intersection for traffic during rush hour and the dropping off and picking up of children for Marion Seltzer School. Anyone living in the immediate area can tell you of what an erroneous decision this would be by making the site a gas station.
A change to the zoning would not only allow the building of a gas station which sells alcohol and tobacco, but could be used to open a strip club if the owners so desired. The amount of accidents will increase because of the cars trying to maneuver in and out of this proposed station onto Madision or West Blvd. Also crime will increase because the walking traffic which seems to generate loitering as well as unsafe conditions, evident at the BP station on Lorain and West Blvd only blocks away.
Keeping the zoning could attract another Drug store, restaurant or grocery store if promoted by Councilman Kelly. Fresh markets or co-ops have been discussed by community members. A gas station was not even considered as feasible or wanted by the community.
There are concerns from parents of children walking past the driveways of a gas station and other possible dangers as they go to and from school. If any of you who have children would stop to take a look at how a gas station would adversely affect the corner of Madison and West Blvd and not enhance it, I believe all of the committee members would unanimously vote against changing the zoning.
Thank you for your time,
Jamie Lee Brazier

Within half of a mile to two miles radios there are 19 gas stations the most you may find in thus small area in the world. There,are,2 within 10 minutes walking from 10022 Madison .
All 3 stores on Madison opposed to the gas station.
The residents around that location are 83 % ward 15 and 17% ward 11
The location is on the same ground with Xudell community oark and Marion c.seltzer elementary school .also a church and a fire station no.23
Before we had the zoning g pedestrian over lay we had many many crimes created by the business owner who was there and was arrested when he true ti sell the FBI 400 thousand dollars of food stamps back in 1997
A child was taken from there in 1993 by a thug who was doing illegal business with that store the child was raped and thrown bleeding at w96 and Madison the police came to that day and said to me : the kids won't talk to us but they'll talk yo you Faouzi go see what you can find .i did and they gave the lic.plate no. I gave it to police and the thug was arrested at his house that night.
So. Dome who wants to change the zoning remember this that when there are crimes you'll feel the guilt when kids get harmed you'll feel the guilt .
Block me as much as you want .there maybe a justice some where other than this city council
In addition, the spokesperson for Amean and his associated is one Mr. Samir Mohammad. Samir Mohammad was a primary informant during the Dimora scandal prosecutions. After admitting to bribing his way into the County Auditor's office, and being caught lying to federal investigators, Samir cut a deal to inform on his old boss. Samir pled guilty to all counts and received a lighter sentence for his cooperation.
These are the types of people that Danny Kelly has decided to vouch for - and we all know who his father was. He is trying to rope you into the scheme. Do not fall for it. Reject this criminal enterprise.
