The Right To Have Control Over Your Own Property

It was said by the Township Clerk on the Vassar Township Common Sense Facebook page that people should have control over their property.

Let me point out:

1. Mr. Gilling does not own this property so that statement does not apply in this case.

2. I agree people should have control over their own property AS LONG AS IT DOES NOT INFRINGE ON THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS! 

3. The neighbors of this proposed sand and gravel operation have the right to clean air, clean drinking water, safe roads, a quiet neighborhood and stable property values.  Mr. Gilling's sand and gravel operation would ruin our quality of life that we so enjoy now.  No one has the right to take these things away from us.
