COMIDA is really complicated and all you little people must not get it
So COMIDA - provide incentives to grow businesses. The concept is sound. It can be a good thing. Ever get a loan from a bank? What does the bank look for - the ability to pay back the loan. They figure that out BEFORE the loan is granted.
So COMIDA must do the same thing right? Figure out if the jobs will be created and all that? Sounds like a fair enough question.
So here is a guy in the audience asking if the COMIDA board determines the validity of the claims of job creation.
Watch for Bob Hurlbut to lose his cool when dealing with the little people asking questions.
See COMIDA’s take is that the applicant doesn’t get anything until the job is created.
Then why did COMIDA grant Brighton Lodging LLC a 100K Sales tax waver? That is the grant allowed without a public hearing.
I mean the renovations are still on going. The “job” has not been created. what’s up with that?
Judy Seil at least ties to answer the question but check out Bob Hurlbut. He couldn’t be bothered.

What is Hurbut’s position/connection to all this ? It might be somewhere in the archives, but please indulge me because I am at work and don’t have time to search.
Thanks
(Or to check my spelling, aparently)
His position at the meeting that of chairing it. I’m not sure of is official capacity other than being on the COMIDA board.
