Glenwood South and surrounding neighborhoods are simply not safe. We unfortunately have to live with what former city leaders created and you have allowed to fester.

Healthcare Facilities Need Protection from Noise
I’m here out of concern for what the proposed changes to the current noise ordinance could mean for our patients—people who are already facing enough challenges by the time they arrive at our facility. I urge each of you to visit our facility and witness these transgressions for yourselves. Step into our patients’ shoes—hear what they hear—and experience what it’s like for them to seek care under those conditions. These changes are not about limiting free speech—they are about protecting the health, dignity, and safety of everyone in our community.
