I was sent to cover the Godfrey Villiage Board meeting by the radio station, so I was unable to attend the Bethalto meeting. From the sounds of the story in the newspaper, it went about like the one I attended in Roxana. In other words, they are taking everyone's comments, and putting them into the results of a study. Those results won't be avaliable for a while.
Understand, this study is not telling anyone what they can or cannot do with their property. It is, however, making reccomendations to the local governments effected by the 255 corridor. Those governments, in turn, will take the results of the findings, and formulate a community strategy. If there are enough responses saying "keep our track", or "build a Cracker Barrell", it is more probable that those requests will be heard. This is a lobbying effort to let the government officials know that there are race fans who care enough to take a few minutes to speak up for their sport. Thanks for your consideration.
