well after the weekend, now I say media attention but its local a few papers and news reports, forced the police to respond and basically said were standing by our decision and people are just going to have to get use to it, other towns have done this and yes we don't want places to close but this will all blow over and they will get used to the new system.
going through it yesterday with a few other people did come to find out that they changed the exception to allow consignment goods overall just not things like bullion and higher value art and things. so maybe that will help keep some places open.
I myself have been busy finding were city limits end and county begins and were businesses are and even though there is nothing right now for sale there are a couple of spots I might be able to squeeze into but more so going to talk to a few and see if any are planning on leaving. the first place I am hitting up later today when the owner is there is a storage place I didn't use because its much higher than others but was thinking of talking to them about maybe buying a few units to combine and use for business but of course zoning issues and things I have to look up for renting and or buying to do business there
