I hope this is not true. Too bad. The nail salons on Main Street have worked hard to create a successful business. I am disappointed in the property owner who rented the space for a nail salon.
Strange that there are 5 or 6 other ones in this very small radius - but I guess capititalism & the free market & commerce has to just try what it wants to try - I guess we can't zone things like this out. But I'm disappointed - there's so many other businesses that would be cool, in there, and add to a more diverse mix.
Media borough paid a consulting firm to Help to provide incite into a successful downtown not sure what the consultant cost But the result was another nail place Council could twist these landlords arms a little or lobby them again the mayor's primary skill set to no avail ?
three suitable renters are lined up and vetted and t's put to a local Referundum vote by residents This way media borough could earn back a portion of it's everybody's he town slogan this might also prevent the High turnover with more resident input into stores. When are we passing a no cigarette sale in media Borough ordinance cigarettes are not fair trade And are highly additive
These comments, as is often the case, seem to assume that local government can decide what businesses go into a particular place. But we don't have a Soviet economy. A conforming use can take the chance - even when it seems crazy, as it does to me in his instance - and a landlord can take the risk. It is not a City Hall issue.
We have a lot of activists in media Perhaps they should go to work Finding stores that fit into the media experience also when local govt Pays a consulting firm with or without a grant well you think media could help attract and lobby for seething better then a nail saloon This is a leadership issue with local govt
This whole post and comment thread is hilarious. Elsewhere in this blog, we have people attacking a Dem candidate for supposedly being "Socialist," and then here we have people attacking the Borough for not taking a firmer hand in determining who should rent this available property.
Same issue with West End Flats and other development in the Borough. On the one hand, complaints about not enough development, on the other hand, complaints about too much development. If you're going to be capitalists, then be consistent, or at least admit you're being unreasonable.
Agreed but I'm an independent not a capitalists nor a socialist and see the decline in the immediate downtown as a MBA and media borough council failed leadership Problem they could lead and attract different businesses the same way they decided to pay a consultant to do the same but the end result is a nail saloon
Another nail salon?!
ReplyDeleteVery disappointing. We do not need another nail salon, bank or hair salon in Media. Some different type of retail would be very nice. Loved Quincy's.
ReplyDeleteAgree. Quincy's was unique, like Media. More of that please.
DeleteWe needed a 4th nail salon!
ReplyDeleteWho needs another nail salon. Towns that go to crap have nail salons and antique stores and church's. Town Hall should say no. Everyone should say no.
ReplyDeleteNot another one��
ReplyDeleteFinally, a nail salon in Media.
ReplyDeleteWell, at least it in not a bank.
ReplyDeleteI vote for a 5th nail salon and then they can all specialize in a specific finger
ReplyDeletePlease don't turn one of our town's treasures into another nail salon!

To be clear, you are advocating for government influence on private owned real estate and business that are operating within zoning requirements?

Media Hardware to Quincy's to a Nail Salon. A slow decline reflective of a troubling trend in Media.
