How many times have we heard about the city being the biggest obstacle in business ventures.... Pearl Company is currently going through this. Westinghouse still sits empty thanks to the visionaries at the hall.
Lieberman may be a jerk, but this city is so antiquated and stuck in the past it's disgusting.
stripping away zoning obstacles and heavy-handed requirements are what allowed King West in Toronto to boom back to life after being an empty industrial district.
Seems Hamilton council is more than happy to keep our city as an empty industrial district because "that use doesn't comply with our zoning from 1943"....what a bunch of idiots.
LOL...I've never met any of the councilors...but every time I read one of your posts I get more and more afraid to. It's almost to the point where (in my head) they are diseased!!
