Citywide mobilization event Thursday 8/13 at the Griswold!
Join us this Thursday, 8/13 at the Griswold Center for our citywide mobilization kickoff!
Several organizations will be joining us to support our petition campaign:
- Worthington Alliance for Responsible Development (WARD)
- Keep Worthington Beautiful (KWB)
- Project Community Park Worthington
- Our City Our Vote (OCOV)
These organizations agree with Democracy Before Developers that "no matter where we live in Worthington, or where we stand on any particular development issue, we can all agree: our elected officials should listen to the residents." This is the guiding principle of Thursday's event.
Event details:
WHEN: Thursday, August 13, 5:30 PM pizza & camaraderie, 6:00 program
WHERE: August 13, at the Griswold Center (777 High St)
WHO: Worthington Alliance for Responsible Development (WARD), Keep Worthington Beautiful (KWB), Project Community Park Worthington (PCPW), Our City Our Vote (OCOV) and hosts Democracy Before Developers (DBD)
RSVP here
You will have an opportunity to:
- Sign the Democracy Before Developers referendum petition (halting the Boundless re-zoning)
- Get to know your Worthington neighbors both near and far
- Join a neighborhood team to help with this referendum and other upcoming efforts
- Leave with a set of action steps to take in the coming days and weeks to help make sure the voices of the residents are heard
From PCPW's email to their mailing list: "We are inspired by the determination of the Democracy Before Developers campaign to gather over 3,000 valid signatures by mid-September. It's a steep climb, but if residents from all over Worthington pull together, we can get it done."
And as Worthington Alliance for Responsible Development (WARD) stated in their mobilization email yesterday, "it's all hands on deck. Time to act."
We hope to see you Thursday. RSVP here.
