Another reminder of our, ahem, western heritage (and the profitability of more domestic oil productions): Last night the Erie Planning Commission approved special-use permits for three new drilling sites within town limits. While the Board of Trustees has the final say over EnCana Oil & Gas' applications, they have no legal reason to deny them the permits.
One of the wells will be just east of Bonanza Drive, the area where residents are also telling the town and Safeway to back off any ideas of connecting Bonanza to Vista Ridge Parkway.
Oil rigs, commercial growth, giant annexations, Erie's got it goin' on!
