The fact that they declined the incentives is irrelevant. The fact is that our shady commissioners made a back room deal, offered them 4 million bucks in tax incentives and set the rest of us up to try and clean up the mess after they were all gone. As for the fact that we have the right materials for their business, I get it, but it doesn't mean it should be built--- here or elsewhere. I think we need less cement and less coal fired power plants and if that means less growth, I'm ok with that too.
