Simple solution for firing range proximity to McCurry

Resolution of Brendan Wilson's complaint about the proximity of the firing range and the other facilities in the McCurry Park area is simple.

The facility that was in the area first should have grandfather rights and the facility that was built later should move to another location.

[Editor's note: The firing range in question on Old McDonough Road was originally part of county land on which a prison camp was located. The range was first used by the Fayette County Sheriff's Department and predates the recreation development at nearby McCurry Park by several years.]
