The town still has some semblance of a unique lake front community. Please try to realize how precious little there is left that remains untouched by franchises and corporate America.

Very well put Beancover!
For me it's all about a way of life, and the type of community Meredith is. You're right, it is very special, and efforts should be taken to keep it that way.
I fear it may be a battle that cannot be won, but I am on your side on this one!
