Looks like the rise is due to the legislative session. Rather than trying to use the millions from the Blueprint sales tax to attract businesses with small numbers of workers, go get Jet Blue or Southwest. Subsidy! OMG I used a cuss word.
Encourage the Gov to let his employees travel. Try and get a major company to relocate. Come on that is what you need to do.
