Light posting this evening
Spent the evening at a community meeting.
Despite the remoteness of our little corner (about 25 miles from a major city and its employers) development is looking over the horizon. A number of people had attempted to block it but in meetings with the county council and the land use people, it seems inevitable.
A different group of people has sprung up saying basically, we know that you are planning these developments. We need this sort of community center, kids after-school programs, day-care, an enclosed farmers market, etc. etc. etc.
If the developers come, at least we will get a nice community center out of it. It's like being a kid and having to go to the doctors to get a vaccination. A nice lollipop goes a long way to ease the pain.
