The Milford Mall Discounts On Black Friday

Everyplace I go I hear how lucky we are to have the Milford Mall in our community. The mall, Milford's largest taxpayer also brings a great deal of shopping anxiety to our streets. This year in particular is a special one, and thanks to our local Alderman a new ordinance was passed making it illegal to block a busy intersection.

The Police this morning were perched at the intersection of Rt 1 and Old Gate lane. They had their summons book in hand and were more than happy to ruin the holidays for anyone who dared get caught in their dragnet. The hefty fines for an unlucky few mean that someone out there is going to get  a cheap scarf instead of a trendy Northface fleece this year. If any kids are upset they should just go down to city hall grab the mike and vent your frustrations to the towns leaders.

The Mall should not be upset either over the new regulations, because thanks to Mayor Richetelli and the aggressive lawsuit filed against the city two years ago, the Mall owners won a 20% reduction in taxes on their property. The irony of the holidays! Higher property taxes, big fines for blocking intersections, and hey who wants to be negative Staples had a 500GB HD on sale for only 50 bucks and target a 50" Plasma for $495.00 Bucks! 

You just have to love the insanity of the holidays! Ho! Ho! Ho! happy Black Friday I am off to go shopping.

Krazy City In Milford Closes Its Doors

Early reports indicate that ailing Krazy City Amusements located in the Connecticut Post Plaza Mall has closed its doors today due to what appears to be severe financial difficulties. A former employee who wished to remain anonymous said what many already thought to be inevitable "that they were hemorrhaging money like mad. The owners have tried to make a go of the establishment but the place was age appropriate meaning that it was only for kids who liked amusements. Take this in the age of X-Box, a faltering economy, and huge rent and utility bills and you have a really bad business decision."

Should the owners fail to reach an agreement to re-open the store it is entirely likely that the local courts will decide the fate of all the assets and past due expenses if any. The already struggling Post Mall will likely suffer another terrible financial loss due to the fact that Krazy City occupies five retail spaces. The Post Mall was recently awarded a substantial property tax cut of Apx. 20% after they sued the Richetelli Administration and the Tax Assessor in court over their high tax bill.
