To reiterate one of your points...Well said Maggie!<br /><br />To reiterate one of your points. They really don't comprehend how damaging their behavior is relative to future business in the City. <br /><br />Being that I'm a business owner and have done some real estate development in Toledo, this behavior is not new. For that very reason, I can no longer afford to even attempt to or consider a real estate development in Toledo. But I'm not alone. People are afraid to invest in much of anything if you risk being jerked around by politicians and the City of Toledo bureaucracy.<br /><br />So what do you do? You don't!skeeter1107https://www.blogger.com/profile/15125467565568229281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-18086728978445716382011-04-14T12:42:34.773-04:002011-04-14T12:42:34.773-04:00I am constantly amazed by the "experts" ...I am constantly amazed by the "experts" in our local government who want to put silly restrictions on businesses who want to invest their private money in our area.<br /><br />Has anyone on City Council ever ran a business? Why do they think any of the ideas they submit would work?<br /><br />In reality, they are just obey their masters in the Union Halls. By various means, a small percentage of people have been able to dictate to the rest of us how to live.Romanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07016139270835685661noreply@blogger.com
