Who knew? One quarter of Fullerton Considered To Be Blight
On May 5, The Fullerton City Council will hear a motion that would consider expanding the city’s redevelopment area by 1,165 acres. That would put nearly 25 % of the entire city under the redevelopment agency and potentially allow the city to use eminent domain to take property from owners as well as divert property taxes to subsidize development.

Hi Raj,
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming onto my blog and commenting. I think this use of redevelopment zoning is wrong. Redevelopment monies should be used for areas that truly need it. These are small businesses maybe not making much, but they're paying the rent. Truly more can be done for small business owners in the way of extending tax benefits to them the same way we do to major corporations. Small business owners are the backbone of the USA, and as an aggregate, they employ more people than the major corporations.
I couldn't agree more, Kanani. In these times, more than ever, The City should be doing everything in their power to create and maintain an environment in which small business are made a priority.
