[Mpls] Cub on 60th
In response to Mr. FitzGerald's request, please note that the Cub Foods store on 60th received NO subsidy from the City of Minneapolis or any other level of government. The store even paid for the Public Works additions needed to accommodate the store, such as some of the adjacent traffic lights. While eligible for State funding, the developer of Cub paid out of his own pocket the costs of environmental clean-up for the site. That work continues -- that's what goes on in the funky little building at the western edge of the parking lot. Hopefully that work will finally be completed in the not-too-distant future.

I hope that our current representatives will take note of this example. Profitable business don't need government subsidies.

Re: [Mpls] Cub on 60th
Thanks to CM Mead for clearing all that up. Why do we have to subsidize any grocery store. If the one on Nicollet can make it. Why not the one in NE?
