He was too heavily reliant on suits coming in for lunch and dinner on the company card, and when that dried up so did the majority of his client base.

If he closed down in 6 months I highly doubt anything is said about the property tax being raised, it's a hot button issue right now so of course they will write an article about it.
It's definitely the economy, but they were full all the time, even for dinner. Location was never a problem before this (though I would agree it sucks).

You don't think an extra $20,000 - $30,000 bill to a small local business already struggling isn't an issue? Seems ridiculous timing and something that absolutely should be discussed in the media. A bill like that will shut the doors on most small businesses in today's economic factors.
