Kleinman calls Clayton ‘Costco killer’ after Clayton questions bailing out multi-billion dollar company

“This is really a no brainier decision. Give them the tax credit. Every city does it; it’s called “economic development” and it’s good for everyone. In this case there are good paying jobs, an increase in tax revenue for the city and added convenience for tax payers shopping at Costco.” Byron

“Clayton is one of the great heroes working hard for the city and its residents, not for suburbanites, tourists and parkies, like Kleinman.”

Lee Gibson

“Doggonit, Clayton, I like Costco! But doggonit again, I think you’re right.

I’d love a unit to be closer, but the city shouldn’t hand over free money here. If they deem the market right, they should build here. Otherwise, don’t.”

Steve Davis

“The issue is that Costco is coming regardless. There is no reason for the city to give the money away when it’s not necessary Costco wants a foothold in Dallas. Not giving away our tax dollars isn’t going to stop that from happening.”

Cody Yocom

“Remember how we lost Cowboy Stadium... Same thing and a huge mistake for Dallas.”

Lakewood’s Fresh Market closes at Arboretum Village

“Fresh Market was never a good fit for our neighborhood, with a Whole Foods a few minutes away I could never find what I wanted there and it was expensive. I feel sorry for the employees, hope they can find new jobs soon.”
