In the late 1990s Joanie Wagner bought a house on Allen Road. Later she tried to get a Turner Construction pit shut down because she did not like trucks hauling on the state road by her house. She painted a big sign on her house that said “Close Turner’s pit.” She went to the planning commission and told them we had made enough money and to close the pit and to stop trucks on the state road. The pit had been operating since 1988 and also was a pit in the late 1950s.
On Aug. 12 Joanie responded to Jim Hays on a Facebook comment. She wrote “Jim Hays geeze!!!! Give it a rest!!! Ok!!! I’m a bully – get out your AK 47 and shoot me!!!!”
I cannot support a person who wants to stop business RE: our pit, supports Tier 3, and also reacts in this manner to people’s comments that she does not agree with.
