Love Creek campground an asinine idea

July 13, 2013

Sussex County Council will soon be voting on the possible campground near Love Creek. I truly believe everyone has written letters stating why this isn't a good idea.

The concerns for the traffic and the impact to the environment in the area have all been brought to everyone's attention. What more can we do? Logic would tell the majority of the people that this is an asinine idea and proposal.

However, having been in Delaware for nearly 30 years, it has been proven over and over that decisions are not always made for the well-being of the majority of the residents, but because some people have greater influence in the decision making process. What a shame it is!

If this gets even one vote of approval as Massey's Landing did, the people on the council and the representatives that are to represent us, will get the message next time they ask us for our vote!
