To all interested parties: Please be advised that the Spruce Hill Community Association Board voted in the spring to notify Ms. Blackwell and all other members of city council of our opposition to Bill 629. All those individuals were contacted in writing and by phone at that time with a statement of our position. In addition, Ms. Blackwell has been re-advised of our position more recently. I am writing to reiterate that position and to let you all know that Spruce Hill Community Association's position remains unchanged. We applaud the efforts of our neighbor community associations to work against this bill. Thank you.
