So many people would suffer from the move, buildings would have to be smaller, the race track would disappear and a lot of people would miss the fun of racing.
Another shopping mall is not needed in Vigo County! There are still vacant bldgs at the new Walmart location on SR 46.

The current grounds have created a rich history for Terre Haute and the surrounding area, and the loss or even reduction of that land for monetary gain would be a sad development for everyone who has visited the Wabash Valley Fairgrounds.

]]> Fri, 8 Feb 2008 12:03:24 UTC 2956938 Mr Robert Leu [Signature #2504] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2956928?utm_medium=rss I think having a legal, local dragstip is essential in any town to help keep kids off the streets. There are enough fatalities due to drunk drivers every year, lets not add street racing as well. Keep the strip, keep them safe.

]]> Fri, 8 Feb 2008 12:01:04 UTC 2956928 Mr. Bradley Jeffers [Signature #2503] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2956911?utm_medium=rss Fri, 8 Feb 2008 11:58:18 UTC 2956911 Mr Nichoals Lee [Signature #2502] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2956786?utm_medium=rss Fri, 8 Feb 2008 11:35:18 UTC 2956786 Mr. Aaron Hoogland [Signature #2501] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2956751?utm_medium=rss Terre Haute needs more thoughtful locations for shopping. Placing the shopping center next to an already huge strip of big-box stores will only intensify the significant traffic problems on 3rd street, while at the same time consuming shared community space.

]]> Fri, 8 Feb 2008 10:10:08 UTC 2956278 Mr. Jack A. Gehring [Signature #2497] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2955943?utm_medium=rss Many other areas of Vigo County are available to use, such as property already owned by Mr. Gibson at 46. Let alone along the new by-pass that will someday be finished ( ha ha) to conect with I-70/46. Let the traffice be somewhere else. Besides that, why kill the mall? We don't need a 'Metropolis' in the south end!

And think it is not even right with the proposed selling of this track and grounds . We don't want or need another strip mall the devopment in the area itseems unplanned and not very well thought out. I for one among all the drag racers in the area will for sure boycott the mall if it gets sold. I think this is the worst thing the fair board could do with this area ..
