I would like to see more types of mass transit being developed. After experiencing urban transit systems first hand I wish we had more of them locally. I think joint ventures for bike trails and other recreational facilities could be pursued. If the Village sees a return in what they paid for this land and the cost of improvements then they are justified in the asking price. By having a lower price they encourage businesses to locate in our area.
Government bodies are non-profit.
That they break even is what should be expected. Any prospective business can search out and purchase any property they can afford. The Village should take advantage of grants and TIF districts to encourage more commercial development. I have read the long-range plan. Because some changes to the village's situation are unforeseen the plan can be altered if necessary.
