Stop the desecration of Revolutionary War Graves

The Issue

The roughly 3.6-acre lot on Ballinger Road sits right off the crossroads of Fleming and New Garden.

There are 12 soldiers from the Revolutionary War buried at the site but no one knows where the exact spots are. This week city leaders approved a zoning request for a two-story medical facility to be built on the land. This needs to be stopped and no development allowed to happen on these graves.  They do not even want to move the graves. Help me by signing this petition and let our elected officials know that we are not ok with this.
