The actual complex is not really the problem but the sign on top of the building that can be seen from 360 and light up at night has some Brandermill Residents and the Planning Commission concerned.

I don’t see what the big deal is really, it’s ONLY a massive BOWLING PIN that LIGHTS UP at night. It’s kind of like the Roanoke Star that can even be seen from I-81, except it’s a bowling pin.
