Sure, Lou -- but once the Wachovia is approved and built it's a long-
term commitment.  If we thought we could toss them out once other, more 
attractive developments are completed, then sure, whatever. It's a 
quick buck but in my opinion, not worth the long-term compromise.

Subj: Re: [RP TownTalk] Wachovia Project

Just a question for all those that appose the Wachovia Bank and those 
that were asking about the tax rate. And those that were pipe 
dreaming 
about fancy grocery stores (like on P St) that have no interest in 
this 
area because of demographics.

 From a logical point of view, I assume you are not in more than one 
of 
these groups (OK so the bank and the grocery would be nice).  Here is 
the Rt 1/East-West Hw corner, 3-4 years into the process and Wachovia 
close to building a structure, if approved, and providing revenue to 
the 
town SOON!  This bank building could replace the long lamented, on 
this 
forum, loss of the revenue from the space at "M" Square (or where 
ever 
it was).

New fancy stores on the area between RP and CP are nice: they are not 
in 
our back yard, we get the revenue, and they are down the road so we 
can 
talk about the for years.

The Wachovia project is here and almost now. How is your tax rate 
next 
year? How are your street being paid for? how is your police 
protection? 
How's paying for the town staff to do nice things like promote the 
town 
an try to attract those coffee ships and farmer's markets, 
bike/hiking 
trails ...
