Dear Mr. Stanhope,

We am strongly against the demolition of the current Town Hall and the surrounding large trees.  It is 
against the Town's best interest to let a large drug store be built there because we would loose our 
National Registry listing and all the financial advantages we receive through that listing.  There must be a 
better way to have economic development than to shoot ourselves in the foot with a drug store!

Please preserve what is left of our historic district.  We are counting on you. You stood up against the 
destruction of the historic four square pocket neighborhood on Mathes Terrace, now we need you to 
stand up against this project. 

Sincerely,
Lynn Holmes
David Holmes
