Weigh in on the Ward 5 Walmart!

Posted on by shawchica

If Wal-Mart is coming to Ward 5, we need guarantees that:
*The jobs will go to Ward 5 residents
*The traffic plan will not hurt our neighborhoods
*The security plans meet our community’s needs
*The city government will not have to cover infrastructure costs
Concerned residents of Ward 5 will be meeting this Saturday to discuss the possible impacts of a Wal-Mart store. We are working with neighborhoods across the city to ensure that Wal-Mart meets the communities’ standards and if they build in our neighborhoods, they build on our terms.
Come to the meeting!
Saturday, April 16th
4:00 pm
New Prospect Family Praise & Worship Center
1809 Rhode Island Ave NE
Contact Amy Gellatly at 202-257-8653 or organizer@respectdc.org for more information or to rsvp.

One thought on “Weigh in on the Ward 5 Walmart!”

  1. Personally excited about Walmart coming. The reality is that the EEOC would have a issue if people were not hired because they don’t live in Ward 5 so don’t see how that is a legilimate request.
