What happened to "Buying in Emporia first"? There couldn't have been that much difference in the price of cars. Will they have to drive to Topeka to get them serviced. Does Ed bozarth pay property taxes in Lyon County? How many thousands of dollars do our car dealers pay in Lyon County? The new commission needs to get their act together.And no, I'm not a car dealer, just a citizen of Lyon County.
