Dozens made a plea to Greenville County Council Monday night  to stop the development of a grocery store on East Woodruff Road.Click here to watch. “You know what?  You can't put lipstick on a pig and sell it,” said Sally Eastman.It doesn't matter what changes developers are willing to make, according the people living in one Five Forks community.  Under no circumstances do they want a grocery store put on the 5.35-acre lot at 2536 Woodruff Road.“The proposed grocery store will stand less than 100 feet from families back doors,” said Jennifer Sanfilippo.Developers are asking County Council to rezone the parcel from a planned office development district to a flexible review district.That change would allow them to put European-based grocery store Lidl in its space.Eastman said if council votes yes, it will start an unwanted trend.“Others will be able to point to that and say, ‘Well, y'all, they turned that into commercial, why can't we have commercial down here?’” said Eastman.Developers promise a fence around the store, restricted delivery times to ease congestion and to move the dumpster farther away from neighborhoods.But it's not enough to convince this community.“Please, please, please vote no,” said a woman.Some used humor to drive the message home.“I want to apologize for being late.  I had some trouble getting out of my subdivision,” said a man.Others used raw emotion “We moved here to live out every parent's dream, to give our children a better life than the one that we had,” said Sanfilippo.Critics of the proposal also say it goes against the East Woodruff Road area plan created in 2007.Developers argue that area of Woodruff Road has seen a 75 percent increase in development between 2004 and 2014 and this project reflects that growth.The first reading of the rezoning plan will be held at Tuesday at 6 p.m. at County Council chambers.
