When Nana died, the family wanted to sell the farm. Even though one of my uncles was the former mayor, the family couldn't get the twenty acre parcel zoned for housing because the occupants of the newly constructed housing development next door, liked the land vacant so their dogs could go over their to shit and their kids could then play in it.

The former mayor's brother who was living on the farm, told the neighborhood association that since the farm was zoned as such, he now was intending to raise pigs. Do you know what it's like to live next to a pig farm? Have you ever driven I-5 with the windows down as you pass Umatilla?

Wright ain't altruistic by any means.... this was just a payback to Randy Leonard.
Nothing more, nothing less.
It isn't like he was some great homeless advocate up untill Leonard made him close down Cindy's Adult Bookstore and demolish the building.
Don't make him out to be a better man than he deserves.
