The new CVS store in downtown Sebastopol is scheduled to open this Sunday.
Will you shop there or boycott it? Will you protest it?
I will not shop there, and I may well join a protest! Are there plans to protest yet?
How about you?? What will you do and why?
I won't shop there because CVS was "deceitful" in how they dealt with the city, as stated by former councilmemeber John Eder in a recent SonomaWest T&N article recounting the history of the project:
The article also states that "The settlement also required CVS to maintain a second story elevation," which was to allow for some future use. However, John Eder has told me that the second story is not usable as designed.Posted in reply to the post by John Eder in SonomaWest T&N Article:
I also have a problem with CVS's business practices, however they have improved somewhat lately, including not selling tobacco and dropping out of ALEC.
I also would rather not see another major corporation in downtown Sebastopol and the corner of Hwy 12 and Hwy 116 is a uniquely bad place for a high traffic business.
