Yeah, what are they complaining about? Evil Walmart out and a "Green" company in. It's recycling dude. That's good.

Most residents didn't know it was coming largely because it is an approved use for that land and did not need any additional approvals by the township's zoning office, said Plainfield zoning officer Charles L. Knecht Jr.

There's the money quote, right there......

These fools blame the company for doing exactly what businesses do. Instead, they should be blaming their elected officials for not zoning properly, or themselves for not electing the right people, or making sure that their elected officals were doing their jobs.

Liberals opposed to a recycling plant? Now that's funny. I thought they cared about the environment!

From the ARTICLE:

Most residents didn't know it was coming largely because it is an approved use for that land and did not need any additional approvals by the township's zoning office...

They don't have any reasons for complaints...............

"I just feel Mr. Perin put this there out of spite after the shopping center development fell through."

Gee, ya think???

Maybe you shouldn't harrass people for trying to use their land as they see fit in the first place, Bozo.

What’s he bitching about? From the way it sounds he was probably one of those into “greening America”. This is recycling, he should be happy. I’m ecstatic that he is miserable.

Two things.

This Neidlinger guy thinks the world is all about him apparently.

But, why are there frequent explosions at a metal recylcler?

Liberals love recycling...when it’s somewhere else.
Liberals love renewable energy...when they can’t see the windmills.
Liberals love energy-efficiency...when they don’t have to turn down their thermostat in winter.

And on and on and on...
