City Should Not Be Subsidizing Development

RECEIVED Tue., Oct. 28, 2008

Dear Editors,
    Whether it’s the Domain mall subsidies, last year’s proposed forgivable $750,000 loan to Las Manitas, or the city’s failed investment in Don Limon’s Restaurant & Cantina back in the Nineties, the city should not be in the business of subsidizing retail development. That’s why I am voting for Proposition 2.
