Auburn is important to us

I am all for the "getting a new look," but I do have to agree with Councilwoman Backus, this is Auburn.

It sounds like you wasted several hundred-thousands of dollars for your research, "Jersey Gardens," the largest outlet center in New Jersey, will undergo similar changes, becoming "The Outlet Collection|Jersey Gardens." This mall in Jersey Gardens gets to keep its name but our mall has to have its name changed to "The Outlet Collection|Seattle."

Auburn is very important to us, and we're still in the community. Auburn is a regional attraction.

On the topic of tourism, most anybody knows that in order to get anywhere, you have to go through Auburn to get where you want to go.
