Everyone could use another friend. Having 12,000 more people in the county will give everyone a chance to expand their social circle. The Walmart and other development have not stimulated a true competitive spirit in the down town business community. The years of construction at Hunt Field will provide endless hours of enjoyment for the entire family. Our schools have plenty of room for more students.
More students mean a bigger talent pool for sports and music competitions.
Having more people for our fire, police, and rescue workers to serve will make sure they will not become complacent. Paying for the infrastructure requirements of Hunt Field will finally raise Jefferson County taxes to be in line with the other jurisdictions in the Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area. People in Jefferson County have always wanted the ability to sell their existing homes for less than current market value. There is too much history in the County. History is annoying.
