Dear Supporters,

The 1501 Collins Avenue project is attempting to use the Live Local Act to bypass the Historic Preservation process and silence community oversight.

In a nationally recognized Art Deco district, developments of this scale must be subject to full historic and public review — not approved administratively behind closed doors.

The Live Local Act was never intended to override historic preservation protections or eliminate transparency in districts of recognized cultural and architectural significance.

In less than 72 hours, this petition has already gathered 172 supporters — a clear demonstration of strong and growing community opposition to the 1501 Collins Avenue project that cannot be ignored.

Let’s continue to mobilize, share this petition, expose the issue, and make it known within your networks. Every voice matters in protecting our historic district and ensuring transparency in the decision-making process.

Thank you

Vanina Takvorian
