Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Our community is facing a significant challenge as a methadone clinic, Fusion Recovery, is proposing to establish its facility in our residential neighborhood. While we recognize the importance of addiction treatment, we believe that the proposed location is not appropriate for such a clinic. We need your help to stand up against this proposal and ensure the safety, well-being, and tranquility of our community.
By signing the petition below, you can join us in voicing our collective concerns and urging local authorities, village officials, and policy makers to consider the potential negative impacts on our community. Together, we can make a difference and protect the Village of Menands for our families, children, and future generations.
Thank you for your support.

To: [Local Authorities, Village Officials, and Policy Makers]
We, the undersigned residents, business owners, and community members of the Village of Menands, come together to express our strong opposition to the proposed methadone clinic in our residential area. While we recognize the importance of providing addiction treatment and recovery services, we firmly believe that the location of such a facility must be carefully considered to ensure the safety, well-being, and tranquility of our community.
Our concerns regarding the proposed methadone clinic include, but are not limited to:
- Safety Risks: The introduction of a methadone clinic in our residential area could pose potential safety risks to our families, children, and the general public.
- Negative Impact on Property Values: The establishment of a methadone clinic in our neighborhood may result in a decrease in property values, affecting the financial stability of homeowners and businesses.
- Increased Traffic and Congestion: The proposed clinic could lead to increased traffic, noise, and congestion in our community, disrupting the peaceful atmosphere we currently enjoy.
- Inadequate Infrastructure: Our residential area may not have the necessary infrastructure to support the increased demand for services, parking, and public transportation that would come with the clinic.
- Concerns Regarding Clinic Management: Recent information regarding the CEO of the proposed clinic raises concerns about their ability to ethically and responsibly manage the facility in the best interests of our community.
We urge you, as our local authorities, village officials, and policy makers, to consider these concerns and the potential negative impacts on our community. We request that you take appropriate action to prevent the establishment of the methadone clinic in our residential area and explore alternative locations that would be more suitable for such a facility.
By signing this petition, we demonstrate our commitment to the safety and well-being of the Village of Menands and ask that you prioritize the needs of our community in your decision-making process.
Sincerely,
