I think the property owners should help with funding, but the city really should be kicking in big time. This is the gateway into the city! Do we really want tourists' first impression to be what is currently North Temple? Run down buildings, dead grass, ugly industrial buildings? JT Martin shouldn't be threatening N Temple business owners. It's an area that has long been ignored by the city and now it's time for them to own the problem.
Why not just build a wall to cover up the unsightly properties, like the Chinese did for the Olympics a couple years ago? Oh, wait did I really write that?
