Surprise, dismay on funeral home vote

To the Arlington Heights Village Board: Having lived in Arlington Heights for almost 40 years, and having subscribed to the Daily Herald since it was a weekly, I am really surprised the Village Board denied the request from Lauterberg & Oehler to relocate their business. I don't recall the Herald ever reporting that Lauterberg & Oehler were bad neighbors to the folks along Northwest Highway.

Our trustees should be like senators, looking after the good of the entire village, not a few vocal neighbors. With the entrance on Euclid, the impact on the neighborhood will be minimal.

In addition, the jobs created by the new construction will be good for the local economy.
