ABOUT

Little Falls First is comprised of concerned Little Falls residents who are
fighting against the Zaida Housing Project on Reed Street in Little Falls, NY.
Zaida is a 138 unit, Section 8 commercial housing development concept that is
forcing itself between some of Little Fall's prime real estate, proposed by
Pennrose and Rock City Development, in conjunction with ICAN.


KEY NEGATIVE IMPACTS

 * Little Falls has a poverty rate upwards of 30% - Concentrating low income
   residents does not lead to economic mobility. Diverse economic neighborhoods
   grant families opportunities and mobility to climb ranks.
 * Small, shrinking tax base that can not afford to absorb the fees associated
   with the extra services and resources needed to support this project.
 * Infrastructure reconfiguration, including rezoning of residential areas, will
   result in neighboring property values decreasing.
 * The housing development proposed is simply not in keeping with the character
   of our neighborhoods and community.
 * No guarantee this is for Little Falls residents.
 * Environmental Impacts:
   * Construction could result in bedrock disruption and soil erosion.
   * Flooding due to water to run off into the local watershed and surrounding
     creeks and streams.
 * No public transportation.
