Letter to the editor Voice of the people Columbus should reconsider LINK decision Because of the work of the LINK, this area has had $6.5 billion worth of investments in the community and over 6,500 new jobs created over the past 15 years; well worth the city’s contribution at $100,000 per year. These jobs pay more than the aver- age wage for other jobs in this area. This has been a long-stated goal of the LINK in searching for prospects. I am disappointed in our city council members who are not follow- ing through on their commitment, and more specifically for not coming to the LINK to have a meaningful conversation. I encourage the council members and citizens of the great city of Columbus to understand and realize that these 6,500 employees who have these jobs live, eat, and shop in the city of Columbus and surrounding areas; creating addi- tional jobs and paying taxes .... not to mention buying houses, cars, gas, boats, eating in restaurants, needing insurance, banking ser- vices, groceries, office supplies, and countless other things such as visits to or needing medical services.
