[Vision2020] Rezoning

[g. crabtree]

The point would be that a"special interest group" does not want "part of our 
town." A group representing the owners of a piece of property are requesting 
a rezone so that the land can be put to, what they believe is, a more 
productive use. Zoning designations are not carved in stone. Changes are 
made all the time to accommodate the changing needs of property owners and 
the city as a whole. If you think that the land in question must remain 
exclusively agricultural, I am sure that there is a number of dollars that 
could be exchanged between yourself and the Thompson family to make this be 
the case. Once you are the new owner feel free to recoup your investment by 
making astute crop choices. I understand that there is a big market for okra 
here on the palouse or at least up around highland drive.

Happy farming,
G. Crabtree
