A Luxurious Living Hell

    Tragically, but not surprisingly, more deaths and drug overdoses recently occurred inside Rockland Place dba Spring Gate Apartments. Hypodermic needles have been seen on different occasions in the common areas of this subsidized housing complex as well as cocaine and other illegal substances.  Often, the ongoing nuisances of violence, drug deals, live-ins, and drunkenness in common areas are too easily dismissed by management, police, and security.  Understandably, some people feel this is an unsuitable living environment to raise children. 
     The Rockland Board of Health is now collecting medical sharps (hypodermic needles, syringes and lancets) from Rockland residents. Sharps may be brought to the Board of Health at no charge during regular business hours. Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Materials must be in medical sharp containers; no plastic food storage containers or plastic laundry detergent containers will be accepted. Sharps containers can be purchased at any pharmacy. For information call 781-871-0154 x350.
************************************************
For some reason, the illegal drugs, alcohol and drug parties are rarely mentioned in police reports involving threats, assaults, and medical emergencies.  It appears property management needs an education on how to select, respect, and keep more lease-abiding tenants.... Or, perhaps there are rewards to be had by accepting bad referrals and this type of chaos on a HUD-financed property? Addicts and live-ins certainly know the place to go to escape responsiblity and accountability.
