@RealCrozetVA's tweets during the hearing:
- RT @julenesque: I wish I could be surprised by the Goliath Gas Station decision, but it seems like par for the course.
- RT @Duewestphoto: RT @CBS19: [NEWS] Despite Concerns, Board Approves Plans for Crozet Gas Stationhttp://bit.ly/a5dPdD
- RT @gingergermani: Mary Rice of Crozet now speaking against station. It is clear that no one in Crozet wants this station.
- Frank Calhoun (sp) speaking. Moved his horse farm to Crozet b/c of character of neighborhood.
- Barbara Westbrook of Crozet speaking. Against.
- Mr Brown said he asked "Ms Higgins, would you live in my house if the gas station was there? Her answer was 'no'"
- RT @realcrozetva: Richard Brown, who lives on Free Town lane speaking. Against. [We've got to live there!]
- I'd like to hear one member of the public not affiliated w/ the applicant speak for it. Seriously
- Richard Brown, who lives on Free Town lane speaking. Against.
- Mike Marshall, chair of the Crozet Community Advisory Council speaking. Against.
- Bruce Kirtley, owner of the Exxon station, speaking. "No motivation to squelch competition." "Opposed to the size & scope"
- I'd like to know what are the real comparable gas stations. Cc: @cvilletomorrow
- "This is about preventing competition" ... Maybe, but it's likely more public opposition than business opposition.
- What road improvements will the Station require? Bringing in a lot of trucks will necessitate a wider road, turn lanes, etc.
- RT @gingergermani: Higgans said they consulted with the neighbors. I am sitting next to one of them who says they did not consult with them.
- It's amazing how small our community is. Former planning commissioners abound, on both sides of the issue.
