Columbia County builders, contractors contribute to economy

Editor:

//

As subcontracters in the plumbing business, we strongly disagree with The News-Times editorial Aug. 23 concerning Crown Builders.

We are the Columbia County business owners who live here, pay taxes here and contribute to the economy of Columbia County. Excellent houses are built here by local builders and their subcontractors, and we highly resent the (assertion that) they are better builders and should compete against us.

... Please clean up your act for supporting non-Columbia County businesses.
