I would imagine that current lessees' influence will be pretty limited and definitely offset by their landlords. Public reaction on top of that.
I don't understand why their word will be decisive here.
- lukeschlather 9y agoI don't really think so. Small business owners are often much more influential at the city level than lobbyists paid by out of town landowners. Even if the landowners have significant influence, they're outnumbered by the lessees and the lessees have a lot more to lose.
- thriftwy 9y agoI can see how this might become a problem. Small business owners will be hostile to any city configuration change, because they'll have to adapt to it and that will require some effort from them. Naturally their influence has to be limited in order to see any kind of motion forward.
