From MO’Betta (Mothers & Others for a Better Newburgh):
Dear Friends of MO’Betta:
The petition at the link below aims to bring greater attention to the City of Newburgh’s large number of unremedied codes violations and the role of Newburgh’s judges in this ongoing issue. We hope you’ll read the petition, sign it, and pass it on, in an effort to help us build strong public support for this initiative and get the attention of the judges to whom it is directed. Just imagine how much stronger our city could be if more of our buildings were in good repair. Thanks in advance for your support.
Mothers & Others for a Better Newburgh

Target: City of Newburgh residents, city employees and all other interested parties
Sponsored by: Mothers & Others for a Better Newburgh (MO’Betta)
