Taxes
What they aren't telling you
- Neighboring communities with multiple warehouse have not seen their tax bills lowered!
- No Tenant; No Taxes! If the warehouse sits empty, the proposed tax revenue will not exist.

What the developer "says"
"Revenue from warehouse will lower your tax bill."
Traffic
what they aren't telling you
- Imagine Pipeline construction 24/7, 365 days a year!
- A current traffic study was NOT Conducted
- GPS does not prevent trucks from driving through town
- Expect to compete with hundres of new warehouse commuters!

- Moving the Black House affects its historical preservation eligibility.
- A warehouse owner will not be interested in preserving the building and its archeological artifacts.

"The historic Black House will be preserved."
environment
what they aren't telling you
- An agricultural community knows better than a warehouse developer what is best for the environment.
what the developer "says"
"The warehouse will be better for the environment than a golf course."
More Warehouses
what they aren't telling you
- A warehouse opens the door to more development. Before long, we will be surrounded by concrete, metal & traffic.
what the developer "says"
"The warehouse has no impact because it is on the edge of town."
