I really have an issue with this no one in this town understands the word "NO". It is someone else's turn to make money. We all have brains and can make the decision to support Dunkin' Donuts or not. Personally, I do not care for Theo or Bryant. Yes,I do know them; but neither do I care for Butch trying to control the town. We complain about Gus and Maggie excuse me what is Butch doing?

Cheshire county has nothing to offer unless you already have the money to live on and come here for the scenic beauty ( with is disappearing every day ) or to retire. There is NO BUSINESS in Winchester, no opportunities to improve your quality of life and the jobs and businesses that are here are low wage, go no where, put food on the dinner table and some clothes on your back kind. Our education system sucks, teachers and administrator make up for most of the costs and special education is killing the system. Who in their right mind would come to a town like Winchester and build a home?<br />We can thank those in charge for this problem, they look for ways to line their own pockets and only allow the types of businesses in that play ball with them. hasn't history and the people who run this blog opened your eyes to what really goes on in this town? Look back at all of the types of issues we have had with just recent applicants that have come here; the Dollar Store, Triple T, that so-called green power plant that was going to destroy all of our forests, that Van Dyke contractor who is being sued all over the state, Mitchell from Massachusetts polluting the air and water all around us,these are the types of businesses that come here because they know by passing a few bucks around they can get what the want that other states and towns don't allow. hell, didn't the owner of Dunkin Donuts just agree to "donate" $7500 to the town's sidewalk project? Is that not payment for approval after being turned down the first time? Wake up people, the proof is in the pudding and it's right in front of you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054211382609443037.post-5746627278717511652013-07-30T07:14:41.453-04:002013-07-30T07:14:41.453-04:00Some people may not remember, maybe we should hire...Some people may not remember, maybe we should hire Mohawk Construction Co. to come back and do some more work on the sewage system.

This is what Winchester attracts and has become known for, Low cost rent etc. etc. and when you get tat reputation, well we all know what we get and who moves in.<br />Lets get right out there and attract more business and encourage people to build more single family homes, These two things are the cream of our tax base and quiet frankly you just get a better class of people moving to town.

Most businesses that have come into this town don't even pay their taxes. The only reason he came here was because his rent went up in Keene and he refused to pay the increase. What makes you think he'll pay taxes here when others don't, like our own town employees, right Margaret, the race track and other well connected insiders, look it up. As for jobs, another laugh, just like the fireworks place and the dollar store, give me a break. You freaking idiots who want a doughnut in the morning are the reason this town is what it is... unhealthy for all.
