Ok, so every word you say is true, what does that have to do with the city moving forward?  Everyone knows the city council was a rubber stamp for RL and only did what RL wanted which was primarily stopping anything form coming here that would compete with them in any business.  They have wanted for the last 3 decades for the lake to be a millionaires playground.  Those days appear to be behind us with the new mayor.  He is trying to look forward, not backward.

Hound pointed out the truths on the school numbers and you must not realize that most all industry in this country now uses the temp to hire formula.  They use temps beuase it is cheaper than providing benefits.   The ones that will actually work get offered permanent full time work and the ones that don't are told not to come back.  My better half deals with hundreds of them everyday.

All that being said, why would any of that stop Publix?  They want the best deal they can get and the Mayor wants the best deal for the city.  A compromise can and hopefully will be reached.  The last thing the city needs is more debt after the City Hall fiasco, which I think was a big part in why Woody won.  The 'good ol' boy network" failed this city miserably, but hopefully it is moving beyond that now,
