Re: [OJ] Community at site of flea market OK’d

Is this filfth going to be visable from the river?  One of the most endearing
things is the fleamarket when you pass over the hill into WV, you know you're in
historic little Harpers Ferry.  This filfth is a crime.
The factories over there with the wonderful access to the water, who according
to the "Developer - will be avaiable for all residents to use and enjoy" - what
a crock of *****.  What's the best way to try and block this garbage?  Isn't
the disgust of all the townhouses in Ranson, (that you can see when you come
over the hill in 340), enough to diswade people from loving our area?  You
drive down 340, it's beautiful, or Route 9 into Harpers Ferry, it's beautiful...
and then you get into WV..... pure disgust.  Sickening.
 
 
appreciate!
