For years, industrial sites that once fueled the city’s economy have sat idle and deteriorating in and around residential areas. Now, the brownfields are presenting an opportunity for residents to re-invent their neighborhoods.
I don't think that is a bad idea. However, it might be better to offer an incentive to use them rather than initially outright banning them. It might just become one of those bans/laws that don't get enforced.
Of course for many people the prospect of saving money in the long run and lessoning impact on the environment is incentive enough. For many, it doesn't feel so warm and fuzzy when faced with the much larger up front price tag though.
I agree with the previous comments. Even with the increase the price isn't excessive. I don't know where else one can get a meal for less than that these days.
I don't like that schools have become daycare centers either!
