>>PETITION IN SUPPORT OF NYC'S GARDENS
>>
>>Dear Mayor Giuliani,
>>
>>Community gardens represent one of the best and most all around
>>positive developments in New York City. They are founded by working New
>>
>>Yorkers, thrive on principles of a true democracy, provide solace,
>>learning, and
>>pleasure to young and old, offer bridges across cultures and ethnic
>>groups, offer space for a multitude of cultural activities, and turn
>>neighborhoods and indeed the city as a whole into a more vibrant and
>>healthy environment.
>>
>>New York's gardens have set a national example of innovative and
>>successful public policy and urban renewal. They are studied and
>>admired across the country. Their preservation represents a special
>>opportunity to set a
>>critical environmental benchmark in this issue and to evidence
>>foresight for the cities of the future.
>>
>>We hereby ask that you withdraw the gardens from the auction list.
>>
>>Sincerely,
>>
