LETTER FROM RAVINES RESIDENT RESPONDING TO ROY LYONS PETITION:

Saturday, 15 March 2008

My Opinion – My Letters Section

Lyons used same tactics at Ravines that he is accusing citizens group of using.

I find it interesting that Roy Lyons is complaining about the manner in which the voters of Clay County were asked to sign the CTLAC petition. The tactics were the same used at the Ravines by Lyons and his group intent on protecting the beauty and life style of the Ravines from the devastating act of potential development.

Now that the beauty and lifestyle have been preserved, many of the residents are complaining that they only signed the petition because they wanted to get rid of the petitioners. Many were also misled or misinformed by the idea that someone was waiting in the wings to buy and improve the golf course. That was often repeated as a validation for bankrupting the owner.

THEN       (thěn)

adverb. 

At that time: I was still in school then. Come at noon; I'll be ready then.

Next in time, space, or order; immediately afterward: watched the late movie and then went to bed.

In addition; moreover; besides: It costs $20, and then there's the sales tax to pay.

Used after but to qualify or balance a preceding statement: The star was nervous, but then who isn't on the first night of a new play.

County Atty's Response to Ms. Willoughby’s email:
