LAKEWOOD: Why allow biased businesses in?

Wow, has Lakewood changed. It used to be a beautiful community with people who cared about it.

Lakewood was a mix of people who understood diversity and worked together. It now has an unsightly, sprawling shopping area with many empty spaces. Don’t spread; develop multi-use buildings.

Don’t allow biased businesses to move in, such as Chick-fil-A. It’s bad enough that Lakewood has let Hobby Lobby set up shop and bring its negative biases to the area.
