Nowh...My dear reader, go back and see what I wrote. Nowhere did I suggest using tax dollars to pay for what should be a private enterprise. The land on Afton is privately owned and so this would be an investment of business people.<br /><br />How do you know no one cares about Afton? Many have corresponded privately with me since I first wrote about this two or three years ago. I believe there is more interest than you realize and, besides, why not give it a chance to fly? <br /><br />It would be nice if we could open our minds and think outside the box about the possibilities of what is naturally a beautiful area ... but the beauty is obscured by decaying buildings.<br /><br />Bob Kirchman is not suggesting it has to be as he has sketched it ... but his vision opens the conversation. Development could be much less ... it could be more.<br /><br />Thanks for the input.Lynn R.
