Shock is not a strong enough word.

And a press release needs to go out with the updated information.

As another resident and homeowner in the neighborhood, I can understand why Kent is so sensitive. We have chosen to make a financial and emotional investment in the place we live. It is only right that we do what we can to make sure we get the respect and quality of life we deserve.
