I read with great interest and disbelief Moscow’s decision to challenge Whitman County’s decision to allow James Toyota to build in Whitman County. While I understand that the mayor and City Council may not get out much, there may be a few things they don’t realize.
First, Whitman County and Moscow are not in the same state.
Second, Paradise Creek runs downstream from Moscow and James Toyota’s water runoff already goes into the creek.
Third, a significant portion of the Chipman Trail is in Whitman County.
Fourth, as a business, James Toyota has a right to relocate as deemed best for its business interests.
Lastly, James Toyota already utilizes the aquifer and it is no different whether they do so in Moscow or Whitman County. I think the real issue is that Moscow sees tax revenue leaving their city. If James Toyota was planning to stay in Moscow and expand, nothing would be said by anyone in Moscow.

Sounds like she reads Palousitics! I had many of those same points in my earlier post. I am glad to see they were published in the paper for everyone to see.
