OK.. if you buy into a residential zone and Walmart comes in and wants to re-zone then I can buy that you have a right to fight that. No, I would not want one 1/2 mile away, but I love having one 5 miles away.
Walmart ended up building a much need Super Center in the small town of Deland just north of here. Hundreds of new jobs and all that.
Yes, 5 miles is close enough for me too. Great prices on ammo and fishing equipment!
