Their editorial page again now says they welcome letters to the editor, and since the article appeared there, I sent it to them. Would not be the first time they did not print something I wrote though. I'll copy it here if they don't.Hillirditehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04502059362611692461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4289345346387194350.post-65866573052215005472009-01-27T17:44:00.000-05:002009-01-27T17:44:00.000-05:00Thanks for the additional info Kel!Thanks for the additional info Kel!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05960574627644930183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4289345346387194350.post-80285046648210434812009-01-27T17:34:00.000-05:002009-01-27T17:34:00.000-05:00The story also states "he (Schonhardt) said only 2...The story also states "he (Schonhardt) said only 27 housing permits were approved for single-family dwelling in the past year."
