A sign touting a zoning change for a parcel of private property and Facebook chat has inflamed some Senatobia residents who came to a city planning and zoning meeting earlier this month.
And while the sign is real, the paperwork to actually seek an industrial zoning change for 290-acres has not been presented to the city, the sign was put up without the landowner’s knowledge, no purchase has been made and all speculation about the change and what it might bring are just that.

I’ve been around the newspaper business for about 55 of my 65 years, having started out in this profession throwing papers at the tender age of ten in West Point.
Delivering newspapers every afternoon five days a week and then trying to collect for your services on weekends will teach you a lot about business and people.
In 1970 a paper could be bought for 10-cents. A week’s subscription could be purchased for 35-cents and a whole month’s worth for $1.25. A lot of things have changed since 1970.
