Recently, Mayor Ed Pawlowski said that the community would share in the benefits of Allentown's transformation, and that he was directing $2.5million towards that end. As the riverfront and the Neuweiler Brewery projects come on line, we are fast approaching the $1 billion dollar mark with the NIZ state tax rape. Advocates for community benefit should not despair that their share is less than one quarter of one percent, because the mayor has indicated that more may come their way, if they behave themselves.
And to think so many STILL believe this is all free money!
ReplyDeleteThey must think the billion dollars carved out of the normal state budget will not be replaced in some way.
Fun with numbers, that's all.
How will this money be spent and who will have their hand out? I can't even get my street plowed which cost me my job but everything is looking up in center city. FU pawlowski and your bobble heads....bullshit!!
ReplyDeleteMayor P has a billion+ for 1% of Allentown and crumbs for the 99% of us. He's got his priorities straight, he know exactly what he wants...and it doesn't have anything to do with what's best for you.
ReplyDeleteI will believe it when I see it, There is still an allocated .5 allocated that has never came to fruit? That is if two hosing of the children and the blow up movie theater accounts for the .5?
