Vote no on one

On the ballot in the upcoming city of Palmer election on Oct. 6, the position one will open the city to pot shops. I am strongly opposed to this.

In 1976 our family purchased the Valley Hotel. We had a mortgage and faced a challenge followed by the crash in the 80s. We did all we could to make Palmer a desirable place. A few of the businesses got together with the city to form Palmer Pride. This gave those who did not live in the city limits a voice in the city. We hung banners and flower baskets, watered them from the back of a pickup truck, and did what we could to enhance Palmer and give us pride. Now 44 years later, Palmer has arrived. We are known statewide as a family friendly place to live and do business.

Pot shops do not fit in this image. Please vote on Oct. 6. Vote no on proposition one.

Janet Kincaid,

Palmer
