Cody, Wyoming is a beautiful city with all the natural wonders that could be had for nature lovers and those who would like to escape from metro areas for some peace & quiet.
A very nicely laid out city, ironically settled by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints or Mormons. I was surprised at not reading a whit of this from those opposing the Temple as well as those who would want members to move.
The layout of Cody proper was taken from the plans of then Salt Lake City.
These concerns about lighting in the evening, disturbing the natural eco system of the area in which Temples are built, concerns of traffic harming the quality of life for the neighborhood are all too familiar and in the end are worry unrealized. Nothing but positives where these Temples land over time, so proactive in addressing concerns and modifying what can be modified in order to be good neighbors to the communities involved. Having experienced this in our lives over 20 years ago in South Richland, WA, as well as recently in Moses Lake, WA, I know first hand.
Calm your fears, you will be a blessed community, member or non-member due to facility. The data is there and shows this to be true, not withstanding those who for their own reason will never think differently.
