I see that a lot of people out there don’t want to fill out the Census forms. Thats your prerogative and whatever, I just don’t personally care what big brother knows about me. They already know all of my tax information and business information and I am really pretty boring. That said, there is a reason for everyone in Florence to fill out the Census forms.
New businesses? They look at those numbers.
New restaurants? Look at those numbers.
New franchises? Look at those numbers.
It also determines funding for roads, healthcare, and other vital services.
I don’t know about you but I want new restaurants and businesses to come to Florence. I am a big fan of having more options to choose from. I am not taking a political stance on if it is cost effective and if we should have it and yada yada yada. All I care about is my palate having a more diverse selection. I’ll take a Carrabba’s over politics EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. Or a Macaroni Grill! OOO… maybe a Cheesecake Factory (dreaming, I know.)
Thats all!
