Agreed and understood. I'd love to know what the opportunity was to Alton and how it would've changed things.
I think I've mentioned it before, but my hometown has done a great job of securing public lands. We've got six nice properties, four of which are river front, that townspeople are always using to swim, bike, boat, ride horses, etc. I'm not sure what the overall effect on our taxes is, but it's one of the main reasons we bought here and they provide a ton of "town" opportunities, such as last week's winter festival, etc.
It's not easy, I get that, but it still makes me sad.
