Let Them Dig

  • Tuesday, February 20, 2024

I have kept up with the dialogue between the few that will benefit financially from the new stadium.  Those of us who came here for a small city feel,  I just don’t understand why they want to destroy it. With the old stadium it feels like home, it feels like a place where you can take your children and enjoy the great American pastime.

Let them start digging where the old industrial site is. I really believe it will be just a a few days until the EPA shuts them down for good. Problem and debate solved.

After knowing what has been on that property for more than 50 years, all of the carcinogenic chemical compounds that are in that soil there are possibly mixtures in there, that they don’t even have names for yet.
