Opinion not shared
The ridiculous article, Bailout for Lauxmont, published in the York Sunday News, your opinion is thankfully not shared by the majority of the people in Lower Windsor Township, nor York County in general. Your article is an ignorant rant after the disgrace that Mitrick, Kilgore, Platts, and people of your opinion have set upon this county and its tax payers?
What ignorance, to steal Highpoint to build a park, we have Sam Lewis only a mile or so away from Highpoint and it is definitely not an overcrowded situation. It offers a beautiful view, and if promoted in the local newspaper could become a noted place to visit.
Then Lori and Doug have the guts to try to steal additional private land; you guessed it, for another park. The attempt to take Lauxmont Farm is another show of political strong arming that did not have the support of the people. Remember the people, the ones that elect the commissioners; the ones they are supposed to be working for.

You have the audacity to say Mitrick and Kilgore showed immense political courage in their bid to preserve the property. This attempt was not supported by the public yet you speak of courage, how about using the word socialism; it fits much better in the scheme of trying to steal land for special interest.
Let's place blame appropriately; the tax bill that we now have to pay is due to two commissioners. Do we need to explain further to those who don't get it. Do not steal our land or waste our money, we will fight back! Thanks to Lori, Doug, Mark, and those that supported them, we now will have to pay for the wrong that our elected officials have done.
To not place blame on Mitrick and Kilgore is ludicrous.
