We need to stand united on our objection to the recetrack. I agree with the last blog, long term this will not be good for our community.

I have been a resident of the Township for over 16 years. My husband and I moved here to avoid the hassle of urban living and now we have someone knocking on our door asking us to change our community, so he can make money, and don't kid yourselves into thinking he has our best interests at heart.

Another concern I have is that despite the months of community concerns over this isssue, one of our elected Township officials finally let it be publically known he has a vested interest. Is anyone else concerned about that?

Another question I have is what happens to this "proposed" facility if the developers financing falls through. Are you willing to let that even be a remote possibility? We are facing tough economic times as a nation and as a community,the tax base may look good now but it will effect many generations to come.

The risk of long term pollution is great . The risk to protected species in the area is great. One of the solutions the owner of the company has for traffic congestion is that we could close County Road 14 to two way traffic during peak times (I kid you not). I personally do not want to be prevented from going to and from my home because of racecar fans. This may have implications for folks living on Co Rd 43 as well.

Economic development is important. Lets make those decisions for the right reasons and building a facility twice as large as the City of Big Lake is not the development we need.
