Your support of this vital project will demonstrate to the members of Town Council that there are citizens of the Town of Blacksburg concerned about Town Council\'s opposition to the redevelopment of South Main Street.
Remember, if you don\'t act, the opponents will act for you.
I was looking at the South Main site again today and just thinking about how much potential is actually sitting there doing nothing while the council drags their feet.

Blacksburg is growing and the town council needs to stop dragging their feet. South Main is a mess anyway. Lets get some real businesses in here.
