Late last week we were informed by the local fire department that they would be shutting down Pulaski Road for upwards of two days and that we would be forced to close our business during that time

Doesn't pass the smell test.

And, of course, if your local P.D. is all Wokey McWokerson, some emblems will be more important than others.

They spread a thin layer of top soil over some asphalt and planted veggies in it.

Just following Mike Bloomberg's advice, I suppose.

I agree. Shut the road for 2 days for a 2 hour funeral? I call BS on the owner.

If the local conservatives do not burn them out, it is a missed opportunity.

This needs to be stopped.

What’s a Yelp?

(In reality, I deleted the Yelp app from my phone after I found out they were Left.)

Why does it take 2 days for a funeral?

Pulaski Road will be closed between Broadway and Stony Hollow Road on Tuesday from 7:30 a.m. until about 1 p.m.
Doesn’t seem like a couple days...

Democrats. Marxists. Progressives. All one in the same.

Yelp might be a lefty site. But it’s one of the few places on the internet where you can read (mostly) honest reviews.

This is already done in rural fire districts. If a person is not paid up on their taxes the fire department will only prevent the fire from spreading off the property.

I agree. I thought this would be for a few hours but 2 days?
Also there’s nothing about a funeral that can’t be done at night after business hours.
The police get paid for going to funerals but these small businesses are on the razors edge these days.

Yelp is a shakedown protection racket anyway. I never trust anything on Yelp.

There are (3) core values in the Decker household and business;

-—Share information willingly and freely. Maintain a sincere desire to help others
-—Do what you say you’re going to do!
-—Operate the business so our message carries forward, in the future.

Funny how Mr. Decker is considered an essential business to remain open. I thought “we are all in this together.”

Doesn’t sound like two full days. It does sound like on heck of a marketing opportunity for the nursery if they had been smart about it.

His comment was honest, admitting he made an initial knee jerk reaction following notice of a road closure decision that would effect his business. He over reacted and could have resolved it quickly by contacting the fire department, which he later did.
