Dear editor,
I have to agree with what Harold Macy said in his letter about the Cayet/Trilogy development.
I am quite new to Cumberland, and have to admit that I live in one of the more recent subdivisions.
I moved here because I like the feel of the place, the fact that it is a small village, and I can also walk to most places. People are friendly, and seem to care about their community.
What Cayet will have in common with Cumberland is beyond me. I looked at their website, and they don’t even know where Cumberland is!
Who decided all this?
I know that there were endless meetings for Trilogy, but quite honestly, like Mr. Macy said — I just get tired of turning up to give public input, then getting totally ignored by the politicos.
It seems like Cumberland will become just like everywhere else. I escaped from everywhere else to come to a place that I thought would be different.
Don’t we have enough shopping malls and car dealerships already? And who wanted the casino?
I was also interested in the article about the group who are looking for better candidates. I think it’s a great idea to kick out those that were responsible for this bad idea at the next election.
Anyone up for running for mayor?
Joe Leyton,
Cumberland
