BE VOCAL--BUY LOCAL-POINTS TO PONDER

I have a question. If the Ames plaza
> was granted tax relief by the village, is it possible for the village
> government to reverse this procedure and raise the taxes on the Ames
> plaza so that they would have an incentive to rent to businesses in
> order to pay their taxes? I would hope so as it seems they have no
> incentive to fill the plaza with small businesses. I sincerely hope
> that the women of the village will utilize the Curves establishment.
> The new owner is awesome in her enthusiasm and creativity and the
> place is so convenient for all the women of the village. Also the
> new consignment shop is a great addition to the plaza and she is
> resourceful and creative and I hope the people of the village will
> buy and sell in her store. She has excellent taste in her
> merchandise and I would love to see these two women succeed in their
> endeavors despite the high rents they have to pay. It would be to
> our advantage to patronize all the wonderful small businesses in the village. Like East Aurora, Elmwood
> Avenue, Hertel Avenue, shopping in small local establishments is a
> very interesting and unique shopping experience with the owners there
> to help you select your merchandise. It's like retail has come full
> circle for help with selection of merchandise used to be the norm
> years ago, but you will not find that in a big box store.
> Congratulations to the new Deli in the village. I will certainly
> patronize that store as they are more convenient now than when they
> first opened. MH
