Are grateful of the process to go through to be added to the registry in addition to the financial benefits. I have advocated that the commission should have the authority to nominate worthy businesses to circumvent some of the delays we see when we encounter the Supervisors Offices who are disinterested in the program and simply dont have time. I get that we have competing agendas but to make multiple requests to an office and be ignored is something that i just find real estatingly aggravating and something really aggravating and something that i wish we could be empowered. We cant just do it ourselves and it requires the supervisors and potentially the voters to change what was a voter initiative. The legacy business registry was approved by the voters. The supervisors have an obligation to the citizens to support the program as best they can. All businesses that are nominated by a with the outstanding job of insuring that ....
