Project doesn't do residents any favors
Dear Editor: The mayor broke a stalemate between yays and nays concerning the building of "Smith's City" off Daniel Siding Road. This will require bulldozing forest, killing off wildlife, and causing excessive traffic problems for all living on south Hwy. 17.
