Flyers produced by the opponents of Landmarks designation, Dec. 2006 to Spring 2007. As generally happens during the formal process, once the LPC mails a procedural letter to every property owner announcing its interest in designation and then holds a public meeting within the proposed historic district (the Sunnyside Gardens meeting was on November 29, 2006), opponents are aroused, come to know each other at the meeting, and begin an opposition campaign., 2006-2007
