Gentrification has its problems but buying 18 commercial properites in one area with ill gotten gains and then leaving them stuck in bankruptcy limbo is worst case scenario.

the properties that could've been developed into grocery stores are owned by him from his ill gotten gains and stuck in a criminal case/bankruptcy limbo.

They knew the time table when mcceachin died and left all of us in the dark.

The session is currently scheduled to be 1 day. Veto day.

A 4 day campaign is not democratic and shame on the democratic party.

He bought the 18 most developable properties. Built 3 or 4 into half baked concepts and promptly got locked up.

The closest he came to a grocery store was turning the most beautiful grocery store building in town into a food hall. That never finished either.

​

You defending this charlatan scamster felon is all the argument I really need to make. The man is a plague on manchester and the fallout from his crimes hang over every vacant storefront like a diseased cloud.

There was no substance to this campaign because it was 4 days long.

Bagby won because he had cash on hand and name recognition.

I look forward to him trying to win in a VASTLy different district in the very near future.

UPS freight in manchester got bought out.

​

Unless you mean something else?

iirc they got bought out by the big chicago based boy

The crime killing strangling manchester is michael hildes white collar multi million dollar fraud not kids stealing candy bars.

The data is worthless as name recognition isn't the most important thing but arguably the only thing.

The fortune 500s in town are all financial and lawyers, arent they?

Commercial real estate for sure.

All cities are independent in Virginia. Charlotte ftucked their tax code base up to appeal to their banks and insurance. That’s why they out grew up and they very poorly managed their growth. Almost all sprawl.

I can’t speak to portlands 90s growth but their past ten years of urban planning have been great relative to other cities. Certainly better than Arizona, Austin or Houston.

NOVA exists in a vacuum. Even if a lot of departments and beuracracy move out west, congress, the president, and the pentagon will never leave each other and that white marble. Plus the metro is a huge part of war planning in the case of gas hitting $10/gallon.

Which sectors

Distribution is monopolized.

They came here and killed brown about 7 years ago iirc

Wow.

Now there really is no grocery store in manchester

Amelia is an hour away

How can you even evaluate a 7k vote race as competitive?

​

The campaign was 4 days long.

they changed it to from 15 over

I would agree if it weren't for the many speed traps/counties. Even the recent change to 85+ and 20 over is more in line with the state but when you consider speed limits have been 80 since the 70s

Hopewell's million dollar mile just south of here has drawn the ire of the nation, including our own senators.

This is the worst state in the country to speed in. Jason Serth did jail time for a similar crime. He made $24mil that year.

A lawyer is a must for a reckless here. It’s not like other states.

Send a certified letter about all this. Mention fearing for your safety and the night time disturbances. Give copies to your building neighbors about what’s going on, maybe a copy of the letter too.

This is the easiest state to evict.

I understand the inferrence but it is a big leap to think they are going to pay probably 10,000x the price to ship them via boat, or even a hundred times more than regular air freight, just so they will be on one cargo plane that can't even land at some airports.

its not like cigarettes are better fresh? or are they? i have never heard that.
