re: He could just post signs up around town like everyone else does that say:

“Garage Sale)))<>

LOL—wonder what the “law and order” types will do with that?

We have the same problem here.

When I came to this valley in 1977, we had a valley 18 miles wide and 200 miles long, all desert.

Our Supervisor for one Board meeting said “those people in the valley, just want to live alone and raise a hog.

Today, the liberals from California would have a conniption fit if a hog drove through the valley.

They came here and pushed to make our zoning laws match the very towns they left and now they do.

I want back the freedom I knew in my youth...............

I do not see why they import diseased food and toys from any place in the world, but we can’t take a chance on eating from a farmers fields.

There has to be a free-standing structure to house the stand, adequate parking, and approval of the plan during a hearing.

Why? He's not operating a grocery store.

What kind of socialist paradise is he living in???

The northeast. Local politicians try that in our neck of the woods, and they'll wish they hadn't. We still have some rights to our land ownership.

Litchfield County, like Berkshire County in Mass and the state of Vermont, are being overrun by New Yorkers who want to build vacation homes in New England, because they ruined the vacation areas of upstate New York and the Poconos in PA. They want the towns to be run by them, so they try to control the citizens.

Kent is a beautiful town. The Litchfield Hills are nice, and one time I met Susan St John in a Wal-Mart with her family.

I used spend Thanksgiving in Goshen (north of Litchfield) with my wife's aunt and uncle. Beautiful rural area.
