We seem to lose more businesses than gain new ones. Maybe and then again maybe not. With more revenue coming in we could hire more police officers. People don't like the idea of a casino, but don't have problems with bingo, raffles and such. As far as people spending their money, they are going to do it any way, be it here or someplace else.
People go all over to shop and for entertainment.
I think it is a shame how certain establishments and certain groups dictate what happens in our city.
