Hint: all have an interest in working on Project Connect or will directly benefit from it.
Estrada’s Dry Cleaning and Tuxedo Rentals has been hit hard with decreased sales. With Prop A, it faces a 26.25% increase ($805.95) in property taxes! When you vote tomorrow, think about the local businesses that will owe more after months of hardship. https://t.co/ljtpfqkCQJ
