Town Must Allow Group Home, Commissioner Rules
RUSH, NY, DEC. 1, 2003 -- Four young women with developmental disabilities will be able to move into a group home in Rush, despite opposition from some neighbors and a previous ruling by the Town Board.
Thomas Maul, Commissioner of the New York State Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, ruled last week that the Arc of Monroe County could purchase a ranch-style house to make it into a group home for the women.
