Local Leaders Say Dayton Isn't Dead
Click here to read the story. I am unable to publish the story here, but it's another example arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic as its sinking.
This is quite comical when you really look at it. First off, Wright Patterson Air Force Base is in Fairborn, Greene County. The people moving to the area to work there that have school age children would NEVER send their child to the City of Dayton School system.
Second, we dont need political leaders forming partnerships to help the community grow. It is these same political leaders who have driven business out of the local area, caused taxes to increase on the small business owner making it very undesirable to do business in the city.
Third, the city infrastructure is a disaster and is laying off people left and right due to budget issues.
I hope Dayton can turn itself around. But this kind of propaganda from the local leadership shows what a pathetic, fluff job they are trying to sell. I'm surprised the Mayor hasn't talked about all of the new Amway Distributors now in the area and how they will have an impact on the local economy.

This is so depressing to hear! Dayton has never been my favorite place but this just makes it sound more dismal than I even remembered. I think you should join city council or something....
To join the City Council would mean moving my family to the city limits, which is out of the question. They have one of the work school districts in the state, and city taxes are higher than the state taxes.
I don't mean to seem doom and gloom, but the local political machine that has put the city in this mess needs to be held accountable.
