The news is great to see a new company coming to this area, but why in Tecumseh, why not Windsor.
Well I guess Tecumseh wanted it more than Windsor, or could it be our property and business taxes are much higher?
Could it be that our utility costs are much higher than other areas?
Could it be that the Windsor Development Committee had no idea that this company was looking to come to this area, so they could not offer them an incentive to open up in Windsor?
Could it be that Windsor does not offer incentives to companies that are looking to set up shop in the city, or only certain select companies?
Could it be that companies see how unstable the mayor and city council are, building an airport hanger with no signed contract, this shows how the city is not business smart.
