There are buildings in Belleville owned by Belleville's Hastings Housing. Belleville's Hastings Housing is a government owned organization. Belleville's Hastings Housing provides houses for low incomes families to help them with their rent.When my girlfriend and I had our child and we had gotten this house, it was perfect being down the road from Loyalist College and is right across the street from Loyalist’s off campus housing because we both are attending college at Loyalist.
I had moved to the Elgin & Tripp St. complexes a few years ago. When we had moved here the neighbourhood was a thousand times worse. I can recall waking up in the morning, seeing people over-doseing in the park, as I watched the flies swarm the park because it’s was nothing but a litter box for the neighbourhoods stray animals, this is all well I stood there and counted the amount of dead animals laying in the ditches.
The pathetic part of these complexes are that they are for “low income families”, yet I still see people living here without kids in them, when I moved in here, I could swear there were more houses filled with dope plants than there were houses filled with kids. Most the kids that are here are not being taken care of. I have seen and heard; 3 year olds, tell their parents off, and use the play equipment as a washroom, or even gang beaten by other groups of kids.
The complex is the only complex that builds a fence around their dumpster to keep the people out, which in the summer it gets so bad you can’t open your windows or even sit outside because it smells like the Belleville dump. Not to mention the whole town comes and unloads truckloads full of garbage into parking lot beside the dumpster.
Last year the complex started to clean up after the raid on one of the houses, and they pulled fifty something millions dollars of heroin plus plants out of a house where kids didn’t even live.
In the last two week there has been countless brake and enters in the area, and I think housing need to step up and kick the criminals out. These building are for families not criminals, I know families that have been waiting almost ten years to get into these building, so stop housing the criminals.
In my opinion and now tell me if i am wrong?Belleville's Hastings Housing should be a privilege not a last resort, a shelter can do the same things for these criminals and not let them grow their dope indoors, and rob others while they do it.

Should Smarten Up!!!!!!!!
I LIVE IN HOUSING AND I AM AFFRAID THAT SOMEONE IS GOING TO BREAK IN AGAIN FROM BREAKING THE BOARD WHEN IM AT SCHOOL
ReplyDeleteHOW IS A BOARD IN MY WINDOW FOR 2 WEEKS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT MY DAUGHTER AND MYSELF FROM THE ROBBERS???????? RESPONSIBLE I THINK NOT.
i do agree with u kyle...i mean come on i have 2 small daughters and was in need of housing...i was looking at having no where to go but the streets because i refused to have my children in a shelter...not a good place for 2 small daughters...so when i tried to get a hold of housing after many tries they said there is no emergency housing...now why is this...well because they are all housing criminals like u mentioned kyle....its really pathetic that people can be soo selfish that they rather have a grow up in a house and see a family that is in need on the streets like how selfish...i like where i am now...but i would of liked to raise my children in a house where they could have their own rooms not have to share a room its not fair to my daughters....but like the people at housing said i have to wait my turn...its really sad....but on the other hand im really happy i dont live in the complexes always have to be scared of whos gonna break in and when.....i couldnt imagine living in that kind of fear
ReplyDeleteWell in my opinion on the first comment, whether board or window glass, if they want in they will get in. As to the fear, it doesn't matter where you live, housing or private rentals, your are a target to any criminal acts if your entrance is on ground level. It seems unfair to you and your children but maybe to feel safe and secure the only answer might be is to live in an apartment 3rd floor or higher.
