Was I the only one who noticed the rental vacancy rate has gone from 2.1% to 4% in just one quarter? And that figure is going to keep climbing.
Saturday's paper has the change noted in the usual spot. Chair Mondale, Mpls City Council, and all policy makers who have other un-met funding needs: Here's a news alert. Other projects are more deserving of funding. The affordable housing crisis has passed. Those of you who desire more funding for other good causes, now is the time to re-double your pressure on the elected officials. Show them Saturday's paper, tell them to re-prioritize their funding goals. The avalanche of funds that are starting to go into 'affordable housing' can still be diverted to other worthy projects in the city. One of the great things about this list is that you can re-read old posts. So like Cassandra, my predictions go un-heeded. Like Churchill, I can say I told you so.
