These were designed for Industrial developement. Retail and restaurants don't quite seem to fit the purpose for which they are designed.

I'll bet none of us could get the developement bonds to start a new business in the area. But if I/we could then I'm sorry but you my friends would be financing my/our start ups.

I hate the double standards. I know of a franchisee that branched out and started a new McDonald's unit with this type of financing. Yet other start up restaurants could not even get an ear.

The Bass Pro Shop in Prattville gets to charge an extra 2% sales tax and the 2% is paid back to City for their incentives or start up help.BUT its ultimately the consumer who is doing the pay back not Bass Pro. Does that seem fair?
