Am I the only one who thinks that there's a problem with the vast majority of new business coming into Culpeper and Fauquier counties being retail?
Where are the businesses that will employ people who could actually afford to live here, buy homes here?
Why the focus on minimum wage employers?
How about some businesses that could employ locals and save them from commuting into Northern Virginia or DC?
Maybe there are secret negotiations going on to do just this. Or, maybe our elected officials have tried and failed. Or, maybe this is the normal pattern of growth and retail always comes before commercial/industrial jobs.
But I need to be convinced that there's a sensible plan here!
Any of you know something I don't?
