Town of Salina feedback time is growing shorter

Hi Everyone. I know I haven't posted in a little while but I did want to get this out.

On 12/1/2005 the Town of Salina Planning Board accepted the Final Environmental Imapct Statement prepared by Wal-Mart and opended a 20 day public comment period extending through Decemeber 21, 2005. They also set December 29, 2005 at 7:00 PM as the date to vote on whether the project moves ahead. NOW is the time to act. This is our final opprotunity to voice our strong objections to this project on this site. Please take this opprotunity to write a letter to the Town Planning Board. (Shamelessly stolen from :http://www.liverpoolfirst.com/)

All letters should be addressed to Town of Salina Planning Board c/o Town Clerk, 201 School Road, Liverpool, NY 13088. They need to be received by Dec. 21. It is now December 16th, there are precious few days to give the Town of Salina your opinion.

Many in the Town of Clay and suburbs outside Liverpool will be adversely affected by development of this type. Face it, Rte. 57 is already a PIA between 5 and 6 pm -- even if you are taking the bus, you end up late. The village traffic is already too heavy. This proposed development will also screw you if you usually take Morgan Rd (the right turn at Tulip St. and Oswego Rd.). Weekends will be a bear-- at both ends, Rte 31 and Rte 57. We usually enjoy driving to the Farmer's Market Saturday mornings with stops on the way back to the library and Nichol's and sometimes we will get pizza. I hate to think of the headache that will become if a Walmart opens there. Alas, Walmart doesn't care to hire our union carpenters, electricians or laborers either.
