Care facility

Dear Editor:I was shocked and thoroughly disgusted when I received a letter from the city saying a residential care facility was being built at 9294 Lubec St. in the northeast section of Downey. ("Residents Protest New Care Facility," 5/24/12) There isn't a designated place for visitors to park and only a two-car driveway. Lubec is not an extra wide street and there could be a need for ambulances and paramedics to come often. Again, the City Council says they can do nothing. What's coming next? A mom and pop corner grocery store or perhaps a liquor store? Maybe a beauty shop or any number of small operations in residential areas. Betty Logan Downey
