WORK AT NEW ALBANY SITE INVESTIGATED
Not too far back in the past, I got a bit of a sucker punch from a fellow "blogger" and local community activist for daring to say something about the SEJ neighborhood area receiving so much attention when our area of town had been largely ignored regarding a fight we had been fighting for nearly a decade now.
When I commented on that sucker punch by saying "nice jab", the person said something along the lines as " it wasn't as much of a jab as it was a counter punch". Since then there have been references made in posting about how certain people think its unfair that any part of the city get help as long as pet peeves are not attended to.
It would appear now that the pet peeve of mine, and about 150 other families has garnered the attention of Federal Agencies.
Story after story is pouring out regarding the illegal and immoral actions of CCE, inc and its owners. Council members are speaking out, the Mayor has reversed his position on supporting the move to 111 south saying in essence not in my backyard.
The more the stories come out, the more I am left to wonder, why is it such a big deal that some things have occurred on 111 south, and the media, and politician are all up in arms vowing to fight this to their last breath, yet the same violations are occurring every single day over on Silver Street, and there is no uproar in city hall?
Reports of the City still awarding this business contracts, and the land being owned by a certain real estate icon, whose business practices are questionable at best.
Folks its always the same names, time and time again....

Who is your council rep?
Oops, forgot to tick the box.
As much as I hate to admit it, the council president has done a good job drawing attention to this.
We are represented by Pat Mclaughlin.
Unfortunately I have to agreee with you, Dan Coffey has stepped up to the plate on this, and it is a sad state of affairs when he is in the lead regarding an issue that effects all of us!
Thanks Roger
