The Jul 2, 2014 Toledo Blade "story":http://www.toledoblade.com/Politics/2014/07/02/Council-avoids-vote-on-food-trucks.html states:

bq. _"Editor's Note: This article has been updated to clarify Mr. Becyznski‘‍s position regarding food trucks."_

But I'm unsure what was clarified.

Again, from the June 30 Blade "story":http://m.toledoblade.com/Food/2014/06/30/Toledo-City-Council-considers-food-truck-permits-regulations.html :

q.
Ed Becyznski, the owner of Blarney Irish Pub and Focaccia’‍s Deli in the HCR ManorCare building, said he supports having vendors on the street, but wants it *limited to one day a week* because of the economic impact they have on the eateries.

“I am not against them. I think it is good to have variety. But we have to make it work for everybody,” he said. “When you sit at the same spot every day, instead of moving around, you are affecting the same places.”

From the clarified July 2 story:

q.

Ed Becyznski, the owner of Blarney Irish Pub and Focaccia’s Deli in the HCR ManorCare building, has said previously that he supports having vendors on the street, but wants food-truck service *limited to one day a week* because of the economic impact the trucks have on the eateries.

“I’m not worried about competition,” Mr. Becyznski said. “It makes my game better.”
q..

I'm more "unclarified." !http://toledotalk.com/smileys/help.gif!

I expected the clarification to be that  Mr. Becyznski never mentioned the one day a week idea, since that was never listed as a direct quote in the paper.

pt=WTF But apparently, Mr. Becyznski  said that he is not worried about competition while at the same time wanting the food trucks limited to one day a week.
pt..


With a solid grasp of obfuscation, he's ready for an elected government position.

Above in this thread, I think that justread has posted some helpful clarification statements for Mr. Becyznski.

* "Don't dig another hole next to the 'level the playing field' hole." "-->>--":http://toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/tt.pl/article/178934#179232
* "If he is backpedaling, he should just stop." "-->>--":http://toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/tt.pl/article/178934#179246

I'm guessing that Mr. Becyznski's clarification line is his recent comment when he said, "It makes my game better," which is probably a reaction to what many have stated in the past week.

q.
Food trucks aren't going to put any restaurants out of businesses that weren't already heading in that direction anyways. 

And frankly, if the restaurants concerned can't figure out ways to fight back (with new items or specials) then they can't handle competition in general.

Competition is competition. Businesses have to stay on their toes!
