size=2>> <BR>>> Moscow citizens need to take a good look at what the
city council's <BR>>> decision to provide water and sewer to the Hawkins
company will bring.<BR>>> Yesterday's Daily News posted some serious
speculation about WalMart <BR>>> building a Super Center in the Hawkin's
development. Earlier, I did <BR>>> have a suspicion that was a distinct
possibility. I could not see how <BR>>> a Lowes could be the anchor
store. WalMart, Idaho division, remains <BR>>> tight lipped about its
plans, but would not rule out the possibility. <BR>>> A local WalMart
employee speculated that it is a reality.<BR>>> By providing water and
sewer service across the state line, Moscow <BR>>> taxpayers may now
subsidize the construction of WalMart. Whitman <BR>>> county taxpayers
are providing over 10 million in infrastructure <BR>>>
development. This is an ultimate irony since both communities have
<BR>>> waged campaigns against the building of a Super Center in their
<BR>>> communities. And in Moscow's case, we are dealing a vast economic
blow <BR>>> to our community.<BR>>> Much more is going on than we
citizens know. What other "deals" are <BR>>> happening behind closed
doors?<BR>>> I do feel that if WalMart comes in it will prove how inept,
and most <BR>>> likely, corrupt the current Moscow city council is. The
council will <BR>>> no doubt plead ignorance, and do so with an arrogant
smile.<BR>> We need to do something and do it quickly. Any
ideas?<BR>>><BR>> <BR>>> Roger Hayes<BR>>><BR>>
