• I was wondering what happened to the Midwestern company, Hy-Vee, that wanted to come to Farragut. They were going to come on the property just west of Town Hall.

A great idea. I’m sure the Town officials were for it. What in the world happened to that? I heard that Hy-Vee was frustrated with Farragut, all the rules and regulations and all the jacking around that they got.

And I heard that they were thinking seriously of going to Loudon County. But what happened? Why did we lose the Hy-Vee sales revenue? Why did we lose the Hy-Vee company’s commercial store and big grocery complex for the property west of Town Hall?

Who stopped that? I thought the Town officials were business-oriented; I thought they were pro-business.
