: : : : : : Why doesn't a certain individual purchase : Why do I want Ford City's 8M crap investment?

: : : : Enough said!!! If this individual has the best interest of Ford City in mind and not his own he would take this so call "crap" and turn it into gold. A true business man with a vision could turn this around into a profitable industrial park and then expand to the vacant lot.

: : : The old PPG buildings should have been torn down in the first place,and then new buildings could have been made for tenants.

: : Why should I pay for Ford City's lack of economic planning. Spend 8M on a building that holds ~75 jobs or build a technology park that employs several times that amount.

: : I don't understand how one can reason that because I don't want to pay for Ford City's past failure in economic leadership, why I am deemed the bad person. The reason I do not want involved with that clearing the mindset is not forward progress, its backwards glancing.

: Don't get discouraged. We need fresh young minds with lots of energy to lead our region into the future.

: Folks who are stuck in their ways and are happy with the current state of affairs will battle hard against you. I hope you remain resilient, however, and continue trying to realize your vision.

: Lastly, and most importantly, remember that THIS board in no way represents the majority opinion of the region. It's just the same old squeaky wheels who continue to wage the war against change.

: I'm thinking that this board is a fairly representative sample of the people in this area. We have some who care, some stuck in their ways, some who just like to play around and have fun - usually at others expenses, some who come and go, some who talk alot and do nothing, somw who are untrustworthy, some who are good solid people who want to do good and actually do it. Like I said, fairly representative. So, you know what your up against Mr. Bloser. Good luck.
