Tacoma Business Council announcement.
TBC (Tacoma Business Council) is conducting a survey on how the business community would like the
revenue spent from the enormous increase in business license fees
imposed this year. We will send the results to the Mayor and City
Council. The survey will take about 5 minutes. This is your opportunity
to weigh in. Please take the survey. And, please ask other businesses
that you know to do the same by forwarding this email to them. The
survey is HERE. If you have any issues accessing the survey, please email us at info@tacomabusinesscouncil.com.
We will announce the results on March 2nd at our event, the 2023 Tacoma
Business Council Summit On Crime. The Summit will be an engaging evening
hearing from our County Prosecutor, our Police Chief and others on crime
and solutions. At the end we will announce the survey results. Register
for the Summit on Crime here.

I wonder how long it’s going to be until the “Tacoma Business Council” tells it’s members to stop paying the city (permits = permission) for support they refuse to provide.
Brian Borgelt says
This is a perfect example of the disconnect between business and government.
Government increases tax on business so that business can beg for the money back, to pay for the things business is already paying for.
Government sees it as justifyable funding for another social program.
Government cannot give to people, what it has not taken from people.
The more we tolerate this mindset and behavior, the more we become Socialists.
The US House of Representatives just took a bipartisan pledge against socialism and the historical atrocities that it has led to.
Time to pull the plug on political ideology, and leave people who are trying hard, to flourish.
Business is the goose that lays your golden eggs.
Stop eating it and start respecting it.
