Well Former, and the key word here is (FORMER) I had to kind of roll MY eyes after reading your entire post. Yeah, all that new development for Collinville sure will create a negative impact on their economy. "They're following a trend that's (outdated) status quo and not looking to the future. That trend is the auto centric society that's in decline." No matter how much you wish it to be so, Collinsville or Granite City will never be pedestrian cities. People in these areas will not be trading in their cars for bikes or a pair of comfy walking shoes any time soon. " It requires forward, creative thinkers and developers, ones who know what the recipe for success in today's and future trends. And not a step backward, as this project for Collinsville seems to be, based solely on what I've read here." Is that all this situation requires? (shaking my head) who knew? Are you sure your real name isn't Jon? "I'm kind of surprised this development even got off the ground, and see no logical reason to envy Collinsville for a project that serves an ever decreasing lifestyle." Right, I bet that new Dunkin Donuts and steak house sits empty and begging for business because we all know this area is populated by nothing but health conscious, anti meat, anti doughnut eating, anti car driving consumers. This post is a great example why the Mayor needs to step aside and hand over the torch, especially when it comes to hiring for the position of an E.D. If someone with this same mind set is whispering this BS into the mayor's ear and he is gullible enough to not only listen to, but to believe and hire, this is why our city has stalled and our tax dollars are being wasted on the salary being paid to them!
