I do believe they have plans but they are misguided and misinformed usually and appear to mainly benefit the good ole boys network. <br />The Farmers Market does benefit my business in the summer months and I welcome the growth but not at the ridiculous dollar amounts they plan or think they need to accomplish this.<br />As we agree there are more important issues that need to be tackled and planned for the future success and growth in a revitalizing downtown.<br />I for one will continue to do what I an independent soul and business has always done to grow and prosper in spite of all their shenanigans. <br />Having said that I also have little if any faith as to the possibilities for and of downtowns continued success in the long term. <br />I endure because I love what I do.

Those businesses at the farmers' market are a) doing just fine without a new boondoggle and b) none of them are NA residents or taxpayers.Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02527562524042839332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9097125.post-42403544852720601102014-02-21T01:10:11.361-05:002014-02-21T01:10:11.361-05:00At Home He's A Tourist<a href="http://youtu.be/ElhAysq3O6c" rel="nofollow">At Home He's A Tourist</a>Jeff Gillenwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14644227936579446535noreply@blogger.com
