Governor Lincoln Chafee plans to relocate a parole office serving over 1,500 convicted criminals to the heart of Providence, which my company and others are trying to revitalize. This is an inside deal, a no-bid crony contract that would triple costs to taxpayers and was rushed through the state property commission with no debate just before Christmas. My letter: http://ang.us/KhkkK8 Please share + call Governor, (401) 222-2080 to oppose turning Kennedy Plaza into a Criminal Convention Center. Many of us are working to move Providence forward – this sets us back.
While I appreciate the concern, I also want to raise a few questions to help people fully reflect on this matter.
I welcome your feedback on this important matter.
