They said no to a huge source of tax revenue too. I don't like Wal Mart or what it stands for, but I do know how people can limit free choice. I'm sure there will be a court challenge. OTH, a neighboring community may woo the Mart and grab the tax money.
It's funny how the little city of Signal Hill with about 8000 people right in the middle of Long Beach (completely surrounded) got the jump and scored several car dealers, a Home Depot and more all in a sq. mi. of old oil field. While Long Beach is $100 mil in the hole, SH has a surplus.
