Every once in awhile, an anonymous person leaves a brilliant online comment


This comment was left on a FranklinNOW news story about the divided opinion regarding Meijer coming to Franklin:

“Let's not bury our heads in the sand. This is 2012 and the "country" days of Franklin and other communities in the area are long gone. We need this project to happen in an effort to keep development and commercial growth moving forward in our city. So what if you have several other grocery store options within a few miles. A corporation like Meijer does their homework and obviously they are not concerned about being successful in Franklin. It's a huge step to build your first store in the Wisconsin, and we should be welcoming them with open arms. Unlike Ms. Anderson in the story, I hope to God this attracts other businesses and development. We NEED more development to create jobs and to help our dreadful tax situation. And let's not forget...I don't see a line outside City Hall with corporations beating down the doors wanting to build at that location, or in the city in general. This is a great opportunity and I sincerely hope the city leaders and residents keep an open mind and work TOGETHER with Meijer to make this a reality.”

AMEN!



AMEN!


AMEN!
