CC “breaks” led to higher taxes

[In response to "Some surprised to learn of Marriott tax exemption"]

It amazes me how the public and my real estate clients never read or listen to news until it effects them personally!

For people to now say they were unaware of the tax situation with the PSP project is pure bull…. One hears only what they want to hear.

The millions that the City forgave in Permits for this project as well as for F&M and LGH is amazing. These millions are now the difference in monies needed to hold taxes down and provide necessary services for the city.

"....I have never made it a consideration whether the subject was popular or unpopular, but whether it was right or wrong; for that which is right will become popular, and that which is wrong, though by mistake it may obtain the cry or fashion of the day, will soon lose the power of delusion, and sink into disesteem." Thomas Paine, Common Sense, on "Financing the War", March 5, 1782
