Apparently Oxford residents don't, either. They struck down the tax agreement between the town and the company who will run the plant. Should be interesting to see what happens from here...considering they already started construction. Yikes.

They are going to still build it.
It's funny these hippies struck down a deal worth $112m to the town and now the project will still get built and I bet they will get less money.
