Yeah it would be a interesting idea for me to use the public comment period at city council meetings. I'll think about that. As for real estate, the only question I'm asking here is at what point are we going to move from having faith that the market will turn around to being proactive, and making sure that these buildings get completed regardless of the market? Hi Mike,

Second, new home sales have plummeted everywhere and NOT just in downtown Elgin. Why don't you call the Villas of Cambridge in Streamwood, for example, and ask them how many units they've sold over the past year. Overall, the award winning River Park Place townhome project has been very successful and in today's slow market, it's just going to take time to sell all of them. Instead of holding a beer in one hand and pointing fingers with your other, why don't you try to remain positive about downtown Elgin's progress and appreciate what has happened so far. If you can't, then why don't you write up a proposal about how Elgin should approach its downtown planning and present it at the next city council meeting.
