Citizens for Smart Growth in Palisade Petition: Palisade is Worth More than a Dollar Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/citizens-for-smart-growth-in-palisade-petition-palisade-is-worth-more-than-a-dollar.html Online petition signatures en-us Fri, 17 Apr 2026 04:28 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Ms Rebecca Benson [Signature #228] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/13184373?utm_medium=rss I would like to add my name to the list against having the dollar store come to Palisade. I am a local homeowner who does not wish for the dollar store to come into town. Putting the dollar store on the main entrance street does not show our visitors the correct image of Palisade. It will also put our local grocer out of business which would be a great loss in such a small community. Thank you,

It appears that the Palisade Trustees forgot, or choose to ignore, these pricipals with this decision. What values were voiced behind closed doors? Whose interests were represented behind those same closed doors?

This will leave the town with no grocery store, only the gas stations. Remember how fast Sundrop went out of business when a big volume store, Vitamin Cottage came in?

Then there is the underhanded way the town sold the lots!!

This is simply a quick fix for a budget that is looking for revenue. Better for the times to search for cuts to costs and services. Time to tighten our belts. Dollar Store should be located in Cliffton, a short drive for those in Palisade that wish to avail themselves of this marketplace.

If they cause the grocery store to close, which seems likely, the town will no longer be a town. It will just be a bedroom community with a Dollar General as its center piece. This is the one of the worst actions the town has taken since I've lived here beginning in 1981. You must be drinking your own brew, because you sure aren't listening to the citizens of the town and area. This store will be you legacy.
