In the meantime, the City treats him very poorly by not recognizing what he delivers for the Downtown Community. They fail to recognize and respect him and his business. Tens of thousands of dollars are collected in parking meters from his customers and he gets nothing in return.
If I was Eric, I would've left the Downtown area many years ago. Because he is, (by far) the best Barber on the Shore, customers would have no problem whatsoever following Eric wherever he relocates. Yes, even if he moved to Delmar, DE. I'm NOT saying he is going to do such a thing or that any of what I say is in his future. I'm simply saying, Jake Day and that City Council are NOT business friendly are are too inexperienced to regularly recognize good people like Eric Ludwig. Never forget where you came from.

Helping SU students helping HALO kids. How great is that? Thanks Eric !!!
Joe - No doubt that Eric's Barber Shop is adding to the meter parking fund for the city BUT "Tens of thousands of dollars are collected in parking meters from HIS customers" seems greatly over stated. What do you believe a reward should be by the city for running a business downtown?
"Downtown Barber Shop is possibly the #1 staple business in all of Downtown Salisbury. " WOW, that is an honor.
4/20 for kids....
Eric even has to take his trash home with him for disposal, right, as there's no trash pickup for most of the businesses on Main Street, even though they pay princely taxes.
10:43, Do you have ANY idea how many years he's been Downtown and just how many customers he gets through his place. Tens of thousands doesn't see far fetched, especially if you also consider the FINES his customers have been subjected to when they went over their time on the meters.
As for what Eric deserves, he, (and many other businesses on the Plaza) deserve free parking for their employees.
