And that property owners have to pay taxes on their property?<br /><br />I do wonder why it's the responsibility of local non-profits to pay for improvements of private businesses, though.

The storeowners have got the message loud and clear that if they let their stores run down, someone else will pay to fix it up after a while. Windows and the corner stores know this tactic quite well.<br /><br />Yes, I like the improvements, but there should be some payback program for the neighbhorhood taxpayer. The stores take in all the profit, now how do they show their appreciation to the hard work that NCMS has done for them?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
