Margaret Lewis is another citizen against the tax. Do most businesses in the city belong to the Chamber of Commerce? The ones she talked with do not. The Chamber gets free rent and monetary support from the City and those who run the Chamber will support the mayor on anything he proposes. See a web site at http://home.earthlink.net/~lewis2/vote.nonewarktax
The Chamber of Commerce endorsed Measure L? In going through their member roster A-C shows 46 business listing a Newark address, 40 listing address outside of Newark. This, taking into consideration that some business are listed in multiple categories. That, along with the Chamber enjoying a $1.00 rent from the city. Never bite the hand that feeds you.
