Summary

Seventeen Woodstock residents are suing a booming potato chip factory for turning their quiet neighborhood into a noisy, smelly industrial zone—calling it a “prison yard” and demanding the plant be shut down.

The family-owned business claims compliance and promises fences, trees, and sound barriers—but residents blame the town for allowing the development, and legal battles are heating up.
