Hopefully the Mayor and the Council will give a complete update on the depot square effort
And do it on a regular basis!
Carrier deserved every bit of that tax incentive. They turned 46 orchard from the worst house on the street into the best house on the street. They did a very impressive job that no one else wanted to touch.
Looking forward to Renaissance update too.
Appreciate the update, particularly the agenda for 8/13.
