Depot sparks feud in the Chamber of

View Voice, Mountain View, (California, Friday,
February 08, 2002)
Comments from Candice Shih, managing editor Mountain
View Voice."There was a lot of coverage of Home
Depot, including an election in March
2002, when voters rejected it from
opening a store. You can search on our
web site for further stories. As it
stands now, Home Depot still has a lease
on a property here, but that property is
being taken over by a medical clinic
this year."
