Parksville Sign Sparks Town Revival Debate
In Sullivan County Parksville business owner Russell Fiddle and auto parts dealer Nathan Siegler argue over a bold roadside sign reading Oh Please excuse our town. We’ve just applied for urban renewal. Siegler says his eight billboards promote Poppy’s pancake shop but locals call the town a ghost town. Fiddle expects the sign to be removed or changed as Parksville edges toward renewed business and new tenants.
