Lancaster residents upset over land of use plan regarding Intel plant

Commissioners say the plan is designed to help towns and villages in Licking County create their own plans for growth as Intel moves in.

I seriously doubt any of the citizens will have any input of value. The corporations will have the final word every time.

Lancaster is quite far from the Intel site. Strange concern. But Lancaster and Carroll have been growing for decades, and several of those people in that meeting came down from Columbus for the country life and disturbed the farmers that were there first. Look at the type of stores in downtown Lancaster, they were not there 30 years ago. Now its becoming gentrified.

That is a great idea oh wait not in my backyard.

They don't like money and prosperity?

This is the same reaction you will get in any small town or rural area when something changes. So there were maybe 50 - 75 people in that room. When the change inevitably comes and hundreds or even thousands of new families move in, your property values will sky rocket. Take the money and find another small town to live in. Or, roll with the change and adapt. Virtually no one outside your town cares.

Just a bunch of old people afraid of change. Happens every generation. In 10 years how many against it will still be alive
