I view the recent media coverage regarding Litebox’s ambitious plans to locate in Indianapolis as counterproductive
to the reputation our city and state have earned for welcoming business with open arms.

Your [Nov. 5] story about the upcoming auction of alcohol permits by the Alcohol & Tobacco Commission failed to tell the

Mike Hicks tells readers to “vote with their feet” if their local school districts don’t improve in a few
years. From the perspective of true community leadership, this philosophy of action is wrong.

I was surprised to read Peter Rusthoven’s incendiary [Oct. 31] column accusing Melina Kennedy of making borderline “criminal
accusations” against Mayor Ballard.

We’re just days away from the next mayoral election in Indianapolis, and if the stumping at a recent debate holds true,
supporters of smoke-free air may have reason to celebrate sooner rather than later.

Most of Michael McRobbie’s comments in his state of the university message [“Public in name only,” Oct.
15] stem from his unhappiness with two actions of the Indiana Commission for Higher Education, both of which are supported
by the Legislature.

It’s clear to even the most casual observer that President Obama and Gov. Mitch Daniels don’t agree on much, but
the two leaders have found some common ground over the last three years on an issue that affects every American: public education.

The Mayor’s Office in Indianapolis is not in step with women. Out of 17 top positions, the administration has only one
appointment that is a woman.

I must express my concern and dismay with Mayor Ballard’s failure to live up to his stated objectives for governing
Indianapolis.

Honestly, I tire of millionaires [Oct. 3 Rusthoven Viewpoint] telling the rest of us how we should appreciate the tax breaks
and low rates they pay and how this will benefit society, economy, jobs, etc.

Ann DeLaney [letters, Sept. 26] cites a study by university professors to justify her position and that of U.S. Rep. Andre
Carson that the Tea Party is “racist.”

The fundamental economic principle behind this project is outrageous and unjustifiable payments to be made by IPL to the airport

Anita Woudenberg’s [Sept. 12 Forefront column] made a lot of good points about how Hoosiers can solve our own insurance

After reading the [Sept. 12] Viewpoint by Kostas Poulakidas, I can only conclude that I will receive his vote in the Nov.

When any president or CEO leaves, a review and audit are routinely done to reassure the organization that all was handled
correctly and that there was no illegal behavior, so they can move forward with a new leader.

What never seems to get mentioned anymore is that we, the citizens of Indianapolis, are still on the hook for around $70 million
on a facility (RCA Dome) that was reduced to an ash heap three years ago.

I'd rather the state keep my $7 instead of sending $3 to me and $4 to some attorney.
Hey Horace, I totally support your right for freedom of religious expression as well as your right to take this class. BUT I do believe this class should be presented as part of a religion curriculum and not as a science course.

Scotty's Lakeside at Geist was SO much better than this new Detour. We enjoyed the family nights, atmosphere, food and selection of local beers at Scotty's Lakeside. The new Detour has a lower level of service and we were not impressed with the food and beer selections. Would love to have Scotty's Lakeside back!!!
I have only been to The Precedent Scotty's location, but food and service have been consistently good and they are always packed. I'd love to say 'good-bye' to Detour(big babies). Since that area is built and intended to a mix of residential and business, there should not be any kind of noise level that would disturb any of the homeowners or patrons nearby. I've been to Detour only once (all it takes for me) and the food was so-so and overpriced and the service was under-par. Keep on trucking Mr. Wise!
