Say "NO" to Wal-Mart
Please help show your support and say "NO" to putting a Wal-Mart in Bella Vista, Arkansas. Wal-Mart wants the City of Bella Vista to rezone an area located at Oldham Rd and Hwy 71. Wal-Mart owns Arvest Banks - 3 of which are located in Bella Vista. Allowing Wal-Mart to put in a store on Oldham Rd in Bella Vista would mean that they will have one store approximately 5.6 miles to the north (Super Center) in Jane, MO and another Super Center approximately 3.5 miles to the south - in Bentonville which is where the Wal-Mart home office is located. Here in Northwest Arkansas, Wal-Mart stores are all over. This includes their Super Centers, Sam's Clubs, Neighborhood Markets, Arvest Banks. Please help us stop Wal-Mart from a "take over" by saying NO to rezoning and NO to a Wal-Mart in Bella Vista.
Why is this important?
Wal-Mart has contacted the City of Bella Vista, Arkansas in an effort to put a Wal-Mart in Bella Vista. The sight for this would be accross the street from Allens Foods which has been in business for 13 years. Wal-Mart has already put many privately owned businesses out of business here in Northwest Arkansas.
