As planners debate Menards project, new study finds retail vacancy rate at 7.2 percent citywide
I was not trying to compare the two as equal equations. I am saying that the equal percentages, while are related, need to be addressed to make both better. Higher employment usually results in more business, making vacancy smaller. The community needs to be focused on bringing in good jobs from solid companies. This requires good city management.

Distraction of people should not be this easy. (If that is what you actually thought I was trying to do).

Nothing is wrong with a 7.2 vacancy rate. The entire country has a 7.5 unemployment rate and nobody is complaining. Or are they?! In 2007-2010, Manhattan area had a 5.8%, average commercial vacancy rate; nearly five percentage points below the Kansas and National rates during the period.

Gas prices approach record highs
The facts are facts and it is all George Bush's fault. Obama is supporting electric cars, therefore gas companies are having to make their huge profits now, before they go extinct. Come on people, the Tesla only cost around 65,000.00. Wait a year and buy a used one for 45. I know I have that much cash lying around since there is little else to invest in. Oh, wait... the tax man got it all. Never mind.

Drug investigation nets 81 arrests in northeast Kansas
Now that Manhattan has cleaned up some of the Crack problem; I would think that the prostitution ring will be next to be purged. Don't they go hand in hand or is it hand and mouth?

Planning commission votes to defer decision on Menards for one month
Menards went in just across the street form Lowe's in Topeka and both are just south from Home Depot on the north end of Wannamaker. I love it. check the adds and can shop all three within a couple of hours time. I do spend time just wondering around and looking but I love hardware/garden/grocery/clothes stores all wrapped into one. Got a good deal on peanuts yesterday. Best thing is that Walmart and Sams and Aldi are all located in the same area. Makes my shopping most easy as I make one big loop around to the stores. I guess what I am saying is good planning is location, location, location.
