Oak Park residents deserve to know more about the Mohr Cement development project at Harlem and Garfield — the village goals, the site issues, and the pros and cons of possible uses — before the village makes a decision.

As longtime South Oak Park residents, we share Noah Sullivan’s concerns [No thanks to giant gas stations, Viewpoints, July 23] about the advisability of a truck stop on the site, and the seeming lack of transparency and opportunity for resident input.

We all understand the need for tax revenue; we also need to be mindful of maintaining the attractiveness of the village as a desired place to live and raise a family.
