The property owners in this area have constributed sales tax and advalorem tax, and have received very little in return. Property woul~ have to be purchased and a district could be formed for the · operation and maintenance of the parking facilitie As to the Plaza Camino · Real,· there is. an indica- .tion that an additional large department store is being planned for the Plaza cgmplex, which should bring in an additional $100,000 ln sales . tax.
