Obviously, most people who filled out the surveys don't know what we do. The law defines the kind of projects we do.

We cleared our audits. We are clear and accounted for.

We couldn't meet our end of the agreement in a timely fashion, which delayed their construction. We extended the agreement with a one-year moratorium, and in June they will have to be in at least 30,000 square feet of building and meet the employment requirement.

The PEDC has an excellent track record. You don't always have a banner year. We've had some good success.

The project hasn't developed as fast as we wanted it to. However, C-Tech has met all the requirements of the agreement so far, and we fully expect them to meet the next one in June 2006.

To be honest, I just went brain dead. I was not asked to talk about projects, and I was not prepared.

The response doesn't surprise me. It is a long survey and most people don't want to take the time to fill it out.

That's fine. Do whatever you want to do.

You're wrong. It does exist, and I'll be happy to bring it back next month. We did get some job creation. I didn't bring my list, and I'm not prepared to talk about it tonight.

All we'd be doing is subsidizing the YWCA.
