I just wrote Julie an email. That smell is unacceptable. I am a pro-business person, but I have my limits. I am all for companies making money, but these people are negatively impacting us, our land values, our customers, our business, our kids, our employees, and so on. They are not the only ones, but they negatively impact us with that smell! We do NOT need to be impacted by them and we are.
