It has been nice to own a building that has room for growth. To me, being located in the strip mall is beneficial, primarily due to its location and access. Sometimes cities place their city hall in an out-of-the-way place and they are not easy to find.

I snow blow my driveway at 10 p.m. at night if it snows. I think there needs to be some allowance for snow.

But the price of commercial property on that corner may be beyond our capabilities in the near future.

We have a lot of irons in the fire, and until some major projects get taken care of, City Hall will have to do where it is. I would like to find a way to lower the tax levy (rate) before we take on that project. No land has been purchased and I personally don't see that happening in the very near future.

Between six and eight weeks, there's big growth.

To have the type of growth we've had, it's not realistic for that to continue. You're going to have some good years and some bad.
