Pat Wilken Maloney: "I am a little surprised....especially with the amount of money, the homeowners have been offered. I feel sorry for the ones that have excepted the offers. I lived, years ago in the area right off of Manchester and Big Bend. They wanted to put a redevelopment there. They offered the home owners not anywhere the money that is being offered in RH. Then they too backed out, and left us who wanted to move, out in the cold. I can understand, tho', that some of the older residents, don't want to move."

Be a Stout Pollard: "You mean, the saga continues? Surprise!"
