Let's temporarily forget the parking lot, loud semis, increased traffic, inconvenience of the property owners during the construction process and the other concerns that I can't remember. I feel that we should embrace Meijer in coming to Warsaw. There are many benefits from them coming to Warsaw. However, I feel, we should find a more suitable location so that Meijer can do what it and Wal-mart do best, attract other businesses to Warsaw. They will come if they have the room.
Companies tend to invest in locations where there is a strong anchor store.
They want to be where the people are. If the Meijer store goes in on Husky Trail, there will be no room for additional businesses because it would be surrounded by residential. This is just plain bad planning. I urge the council members to consider the reasons to have Meijer in Warsaw and know the Husky Trail address will not provide the support that the Meijer chain is looking for. All rights reserved.
