First, let’s start with transparency. During Item #26’s public hearing in which a private applicant was asking to change parking to diagonal on a public street no where in the meeting did they say who it was and it was presented by the Public Works department. One would assume it is for ONE of the country clubs but all that was said at the meeting was it was ‘for the country club’. Well guess what, both clubs are on that street, so which one? Also, while I don’t oppose the parking change since it is a weird street that only those d-bags use, I found the excuse from the mysterious applicant that they didn’t have ‘land available’ for more parking. Ridiculous! All the country clubs have is LAND! And acres and acres of it! Also, if you don’t have the ‘land’ for additional parking, why not just buy the street/land from the city and make it your own private parking lot? Just another bailout to the rich who don’t need it. I would have said, “You want the land for parking? Then buy it and pay property taxes on it, otherwise, talk to yah later.” and this is what it is about, they want property tax free parking and the council rolled over like old ewes to give it to them, BAAAAAAAA!
Only Curtist the Blurtist voted against it, and my assumption was because he didn’t want taxpayers footing the bill for country club parking. Duh.
I have been enjoying Curt’s rebellion, but don’t fool yourself, this is about supporting a mayoral campaign. Heels thinks he supports her, but me thinks he is Huether’s lap dog*. But Mike may be running for Congress as an Indy. Extra weird. But when you have a corrupt AG vs. a Cajun chef he may have a chance.
*In order for Huether to successfully take the mayorship he must show that the past 8 years of Poops have been worse (I am not going there!) And all Curtist is doing is propping up Mike by dissenting the current administration. I told someone if Curt was so concerned about these things, why didn’t he bring them up 7 years ago? Hey Curt, you are NOT fooling anyone!
