Yes! The Moon Township Walmart will be a welcome addition to the community! We've got to get rid of that ugly, terrible vacant lot in town. It's an eyesore and a blighted property.

I agree that the vacant lot is an eyesore, but I do NOT look forward to the traffic a Walmart will bring. It will not help me one bit because I refuse to shop there due to how poorly they treat their own employees. I feel something much better could go in that space much like the beautiful mixed use area they are building in South Fayette. I hope this project gets nixed!

I don't like Walmarts, anywhere. I don't know why we need another walmart when there is one less than ten minutes away in Robinson. My concern is that this store will shut down Kmart across the street and then we will have another vacant lot to deal with.

The Kmart is really bad. it usually takes 10-15 minutes to check out when you are 3rd or 4th in line. I am not a fan of Wal-mart, but they have cheap groceries and I'm hoping it will attract other businesses to that plaza.

First off, thanks to Sherwin-Williams for holding out as long as you did at the West Hills Plaza. And Joe, don't be fooled by cheap groceries ---- there's always a price paid somewhere (i.e. tax dollars going for public assistance to WalMart employees to supplement the meager wages WalMart pays, smaller businesses getting squeezed out of the area, etc.).

I have no idea why Moon Twp is allowing this to happen when the majority of Moon residents, particularly those who will be most impacted by the traffic nightmare that will come with it, have voiced their opposition. The vacant lot should be turned into something we all could use like a park, with a pond and walking trail, perhaps a dog park that charges admission to raise money for its upkeep. The last thing people in Moon want or need is a Walmart. But it would appear our township "leaders" aren't interested in what we want or need. They've already tasted Walmart's KoolAid.

M, I agree with you. Marv Eicher is the voice of reason on that panel. If the rest of the group stopped seeing dollar signs and instead concentrated on "quality of life" for those they represent, we could stop Moon from becoming fraught with chain stores and fast food restaurants. Part of the reason I love living here is because there is still that "local" quality. I fear, though, that WalMart will suck the last vestige of "localness" from our township and we will become a generic Anytown USA.
