City Lambasted By Developer

Another developer coming forward to say he won't be doing business in the city anymore.

Mac Blair of Blair Construction tells CHSJ News developers come forward with proposals based on what the market tells them people want. He says these can take 2 to 5 years to put together and go through all the hoops only to see them turned down at Common Council.

Blair charges the city has no plan to grow the population and tax base. He has a message for people in the city who oppose development........You better be prepared to cosy up to higher taxes.
 
Blair goes on to say people aren't banging on their doors saying they want to live in the north or south ends.
