County Council Members:
l am writing du abject iu yu3ar plan to bav big ~i atar~. 7 l~eli.~*va !l~aY the people
shonki decide if they want aaeh a store and not have that decision made for tkem. if
WalMart, or nay other company, decides to build a big boa store they are taking
some risk that the eas;anmels will steep there. Bn1 thin is net gaaraateed and in fact
if most people oppose sack stores thry will go oat of baseness. Thst is the way the
econonry shenld work.
if yon are interested in what the rrajerity of citizens want why nod put it to them by
letting them vote oa it.. With election a:y oomirS ap soon it wonkl be an a:cellent
time to do thin. Yon might ado esasider patt®g the IMnalna devebpment oa the
ballot and see hsw the people fed abort tlxd ah~e.
There were people sgaiast Priaee Kehio Plara whey it wan developed and abo there
was as eatery against Walltlart and Home lispot. 13rt if you triod to take these
places away from ea cow there would be a maelt biggv eatery. Please
year stance agaimt big bei rtvra and let il~e pesph: decide by wlsere ~s
