*Saturday Extra* In a KZMU and Moab Sun News collaboration, we feature the latest in a proposed 13-acre Love’s Travel Stop planned for Spanish Valley. We discuss the reaction to the project with the Sun’s Managing Editor Ashley Bunton, and the concerns of nearby residents regarding noise, light pollution, and toxic fumes. But there are those who believe this development is a good change for the Valley, adding truck parking to local land and money into state coffers. This story’s evolution revolves around development and growth, as well as the residents, local governments, and other interests who (depending on your perspective) stand to gain or lose.
