As long-term residents of Mill Creek, we have cherished memories associated with the name Central Market. It's not just a store; it's a symbol of our community, located right in the heart of Mill Creek Town Center. change to 'Town & Country' has left us feeling disconnected from a piece of our town’s identity.

The original name, Central Market, was more than fitting for its location and purpose. It served as a hub for local commerce and community engagement right at the center of Mill Creek! We were thrilled when you brought back the beloved salad bar - now we urge you to bring back the original name that means so much to us.

Historically speaking, names play an integral role in preserving local culture and heritage. They serve as markers that connect people to their roots and foster community spirit (source: American Planning Association). In this light, reverting back to 'Central Market' is not just about nostalgia but also about maintaining our town's unique identity.

We understand changes are sometimes necessary for growth or rebranding purposes. However, considering how deeply ingrained Central Market is in our hearts and history, we believe this particular change was unnecessary and counterproductive.

We kindly request that you consider restoring the original name - Central Market - which resonates with so many residents here in Mill Creek. Please sign this petition if you agree that preserving local heritage matters!
