spiker3 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2009 So i met a guy planning on running for City Council in Ward 3 against Anthony Burfoot the other night...he's running on a platform of ending ALL developer incentives, converting the existing incentives to loans to be paid back with a maximum cap on the amount of the loan... I have never in my life struggled to keep a straight face in discussing the matter with him. Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spiker3 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2009 Do you think this is a good idea? I have misgivings personally. In a perfect world we wouldn't have to offer them money to begin with, but it is clear that a lot of the projects under construction now would not have been built without city assistance. A loan sounds nice, but it still eats into the developers bottom line in the end, which is all they really care about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
