Cromdale Letter Writing Campaign
Thursday, March 26th, 2009
Hello CRUD volunteers,
As many of you know CRUD, and you, our volunteers, have been working to do something positive with the Cromdale Hotel on 118th Avenue. The derelict and abandoned hotel is a haven for criminal activity and an eyesore in our community.
Now it’s time for your help. CRUD needs you to write to our city councillors, the mayor, our MLA, MP, fire inspectors, the police, bylaw, and the owner of the Cromdale Hotel to let them know how the building makes you feel unsafe and degrades our neighbourhood. Together, we can raise a big stink about the Cromdale and the detrimental effect it’s having on our community.
CRUD has already written to the owner of the Cromdale, Terry Nyquvest, to ask him what he intends to do with the building. We politely asked Mr.Nyquvest to reply to our letter by today, March 25th. As he hasn’t, it’s now time to kick our letter-writing campaign into action.
We hope you share our concerns about the Cromdale Hotel. Please read the following attachments.
We’ve included a sample letter and a list of contacts with email and postal addresses. Please work on this letter and send it by the end of March, either by email, fax or through snail mail.
Following the letter writing campaign we would like to stage a peaceful demonstration. We will keep you posted on when and where, but tentatively mark April 18th on your calendars.
Thanks again for your interest in keeping our neighbourhood safe and helping keep it a great place to live and work. If you have any questions please contact us at info@crudedmonton.org or 780.996.4728.
CRUD.
