My question regarding the article is what can Atchison do to attract new business to the area? Currently, there are very few opportunities for which to apply. Atchison is not short of people eager to work. It is merely short of companies to which they can apply. My husband and I both have to commute to Kansas City to find sustainable employment. What ideas do people have to encourage enterprise and organizational development to provide jobs for Atchison's unemployed?

These are difficult times for families and for the city of Atchison. The more you get to know me, the more you will know that I am never afraid to ask tough questions. I will keep digging until I get good answers and you get the services you deserve at a price you can afford. That is VALUE!
