don't suppose there is a recently added or newly proposed housing development going up in the area?
that's what usually closes historic race tracks down..

Nope, there are actually houses (well, "manufactured homes") RIGHT across the street already, and they have been there for many, many years.

It's a rural area, most lots around there are 2 - 10 acres each.

Not a single complaint in the article from a neighbor, and the only "official" to speak on the matter was a friggin' pencil pusher from the county planning department. I guess all the people who really have any clout in the decision making are too busy trying to get re-elected to their positions of extortion specialist and criminal kick back taker, errr, I mean County Supervisor, to be bothered with something as trivial as the Town of Wittman's biggest business and tax revenue generator being threatened with closure.
