There's no chance that Moultonborough will be getting a Super Walmart anytime soon.....no major retailers will go where there is no town sewer and water with the exception of Subway,DD's or maybe Quizno's,all of which have very little impact.Most of the business' on rt 25 are just family owned ma and pa operations that provide most of the jobs in the area.The value of that property would be greatly diminished if a zoning change were to take place which is not fair to the property owners.
I know it doesn'r effect most of you,but just imagine if the town decided to change to zoning on YOUR street and it greatly reduced the value your home......perhaps that home will be the source of your retirement income,or perhaps your kids education.
I sure don't want to see an Appleby's next door to my Village Kitchen,but anyone ought to be free to open a little shop or a bed and breakfast on their property if they wish.
