MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – A group of concerned citizens in Miami-Dade’s Brownsville area is taking on Hialeah City Hall in a fight over a proposed annexation of part of the unincorporated community.

“This is not what we desire,” said Pastor Harrell Henton with the Brownsville Church of Christ.

An online petition went up over the weekend, with support and signatures following.

“They didn’t really tell us about this situation, so we took upon our own to go into the community,” said Henton.

Community members, clergy and civic groups gathered at Henton’s church Monday night, expressing their opposition to the portion of Brownsville, between 32nd and 37th Avenues, becoming part of Hialeah.
