I'm responding to two excellent letters in the March 4 farragutpress. The first was from one of the founding members of the Town of Farragut who expressly said that Farragut was never intended to be an urban environment. And, the other letter exposed the plan to use eminent domain to seize property for walkways and greenways. Many things going on right now are out of character for Farragut's intended small-town atmosphere, and the people need to have a voice in what's done in the future with the upcoming July and August election. I encourage everyone to vote.
