Impact of Wal-Mart

Anyone care to comment on Wal-Mart's impact on Littleton? Has it been an important part of, or a hinderance to your diligent planning and continuing success? I'm also curious about the pre- and post- Wal-Mart thoughts of people - many people express conceptions (good and bad) before a Wal-Mart comes to their community, but how did those conceptions pan out for you?

Thanks.

HI John
I was one of the members of the community that brought Wal Mart to Littleton. I think the best thing for any community is to be pro active and have Main Street active before it comes to town. THen both Main Street and Wal Mart work well together.
