Now class, let's see a show of hands. One of these will provide luxury products with adequate demand and generous tax revenue, and the other sits empty and does nothing. What should you choose here?
Zero regard for the big picture in this state. You'd think the stagnant population growth would send a message.
While I agree with you, most people don't really look beyond their own little world and how things might affect them.

At first I was thinking that site was more toward Route 202 where the town is looking to create more of a village center but this is further out next to the Big Y shopping center so I am not seeing the issue. You will always get people complaining about change but depending how this is planned out the proposed dealership seems reasonable to me. Jay

well, if they have children or grandchildren and aren't estranged from them, wouldn't they rather leave them a home worth $350,000 vs a home with $250,000 or $175,000? That difference could help pay for college for a grandchild.
