I just HAVR to psot this...... Joe and I have been going to a restaurant called... LaVecchia in Reno since 1996.. it is a wonderful Italian restaurant...friendly, table linens, canles, great food and most of all a Wonderful staff...!!!!!! Great prices to boot!!
We just learned that the Reno city council and all their affiliates decided to widen the main road... Maona Road.. to 6 lanes.... now they are going to TAKE the property that this great restaurant sits.... just DO AWAY... with it....!! this man and his family have put their heart and souls into their dream.. serving great food with pride..... Now with NO warning, the local government can take away all they have worked so hard for ..... and for so many years..... in these econmonic times, they pay taxes, generate jobs .... etc . etc.. they have asked for nothing..... in return, they are told, sorry we need the property..... Where will they go? How will Alberto provide for his family???????? pay his mortgage, car payments and all other personal repsonibilites? What about his employees??????
WHAT HAS THE WORLD IN AMERICA COME TO??????????????? Joe and I keep thinking what if this had been the local government taking away our pharmacy?????? The mental stress must be unbearable for Alberto and his family and staff......!
If anyone in the Reno, minden, gardnerville, fallon, susanville, virginia city area are reading this, PLEASE PLEASE WRITE A LETTER TO THE City OF RENO COMMISSIONERS....
THINK IF THIS WAS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BUSINESS..... WHAT A DISGRACE TO THE AMERICAN DREAM.... please e mail me or post your thoughts...
Bye for now... Liz

Then, when you have more regular followers you can stop Facebooking if you want. Often getting people to follow (and comment on) a blog takes a a long time. Without promotion, no one will know it's here.
ReplyDeleteAlso, when you are writing your post, there's a small section at the bottom called "labels". You need to fill out this section as it's what triggers "Google" and other key words in search engines. So, for this post you could put LaVecchia, Italian Restaurant, reno, eminent domain, etc.
