  1. When is the community going to be told the truth? . Everyone has an agenda.
    What specifically and truthfully is in the “signed contract” that is preventing it from going forward.
    How much is it going to cost each resident- not just the amount to repay the bond. Dont’ we also have to pay maintenance and operations too?
    And finally, even if the community pays for everything hasn’t the town already stated it is going to run townwide programs like basketball, for the whole town?
    Where is everyone going to park?
