TOM Smith is going to vote for the Baseball Park, he just playing to the crowd. Others will vote based on ego like Tim Pape a vote for his children's future, Sam Talarico for his children's future, John Crawford, leader of the pack, Tom Hayhurst, to keep his friends employed, and Glenn Hines, because he can use something else instead of the Southtown Centre mantra and Renaissance Pointe, to tell African-American voters, they have a future in low wage jobs.
Oh I forgot Tom Didier, where ever the Republican says to sign, so will he go, so that's a total of seven. Forget how much it's going to cost the taxpayer. It's a place where they all hang out together, ain't that special.
Tom Smith is already campaigning for the next project; Riverfront. That leaves the two senior guys. John Shoaff and Don Schmidt, well it makes sense, the elders know how to think for themselves and that makes a big difference when it comes to real leadership.
From the DID website: Municipal Riverfront Improvement District/ CREeD. An infill strategy for the downtown core is being developed that will weld these two sets of incentives to grow mixed-use projects, featuring first floor retail/restaurants and upper floor housing as well as integrating arts and culture into a number of smaller developments. Setting the conditions to spur creative industries is the key goal of the strategy.
Loft Competition: We are working to finalize construction numbers on the development of four lofts.
Community Based Development: The mixed-use development that the DID has helped conceptualize for Superior Street adjacent to Club Soda is being pursued by a local development team. Environmental issues are currently being studied to see how they
will impact development at the site.The DID is working to spur housing in two buildings with for-profit developers. Both rehabs would produce cool loft product, but it has not been determined whether units would be ownership or rental.
UEA / DID Collaboration: John Stafford has agreed to facilitate detailed discussions between the DID and Urban Enterprise Association boards, about how the two agencies might become more intertwined. Recommendations to the full boards are expected in time for consideration at April meetings.
