STILL NOT GETTING IT

Last evening I was taken aback by the mayor's article in the Peachtree City Newsletter regarding what he believes to be the eventuality of a big box such as Kohls. With three of four residents standing firmly against them, I must reiterate what I said in an earlier article: "Mr Mayor, are you listening?"
Of the four page letter, one and one-half pages are his letter in support or perhaps his belief that they are essential for tax revenue and for the long term life of the development.
I do not hold this belief, nor do I see them as inevitable. Regional retail outlets are not the answer, smaller shops that are golf cart accessable for neighboring villages are what I have heard the residents say, and they have said it loud. It is long past the time to start listening to your constituancy Mr Mayor, and not those who wish to erode the quality of life that we all enjoy.
We have an obligation to maintain the uniqueness of Peachtree City, not one to succumb to developer priorities.
