He pointed out that one of the applicants had been born and raised within walking distance of where he <br />wanted to put in a small “redeveloped good-looking” housing project. He stated that the applicants would <br />continue to pay taxes and the tax incentive was an investment in the future. <br /> <br />Councilor Zelenka clarified that he was not characterizing the developers in any way. For him it was a <br />matter of what the role of government should be and how it should use tax incentives and tax dollars. <br /> <br />Councilor Taylor declared that the council did not know whether or not these projects would be built without <br />tax incentives. She also asserted that they did not know how many people were present at the neighborhood <br />meetings at which the applicants had garnered neighborhood approval. She opined that the City wanted <br />people to build good things but that should not mean they did not have to pay taxes. <br /> <br />Roll call vote; the vote to substitute the motion was a tie, 4:4; councilors Poling, Pryor, <br />Solomon, and Clark voting in favor and councilors Zelenka, Taylor, Ortiz, and Bettman <br />voting in opposition.
