Driven Away a Business

Once again the self-appointed gurus of what's best for North Haven have driven away a business seeking to locate in North Haven.

I am referring to the recycling facility hoping to occupy a property that has lain fallow for many years. Said business would have not only brought in many thousands of sorely needed tax dollars, but needed jobs as well.

Strange as it may seem, town leaders did nothing to promote this business to the public. I guess the leaders only promote non-taxable facilities à la Yale-New Haven Medical Center and Quinnipiac College.

If this trend of business bashing continues, North Haven will become a highly taxed bedroom community.
