METRO's generosity

CHANNEL 11 REPORTS that METRO has allocated $5 million to give to businesses suffering due to light rail construction:

Business owners adversely impacted by light rail construction will be asked to submit an application for assistance. Final details of the plan are still being worked out but an initial requirement includes that a business would need to have at least a three-year track record at the location in question. Officials said $25,000 is the maximum amount each business could receive, but the grant amount will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

Wow -- $25,000.
