Re: Oak View Mall - Redevelopment Plan
I've worked at Westroads for the last 15 years, and the mall traffic is down and the demographics have changed. Since 12/5/2007, the mall is not as robust as it was. As for the criminal activity that took down Crossroads (IMO), Westroads keeps that pretty well in check. Off duty Omaha Police on week...

Re: Bag ban Bag fee politicians stop messin with me!
I generally agree with this idea. For grocery stores. But I disagree with it being used in places like hardware stores, clothing stores, and other non-food businesses. Which catagory would a store like a Walmart SuperCenter or Super Target fall under? Walmart derives a minimum of 50% of their busin...
